After another disappointment in the playoffs, the Celtics have made many changes this summer, and it is certainly not over. In the locker room, Brad Stevens should not miss much …
Among the big teams in the Eastern Conference for years, the Celtics are still struggling to convince. Jayson Tatum is exploiting his full potential, and Jaylen Brown is proving to be a solid lieutenant, although a little more is expected from him. For the rest, however, it is not glorious.
Kemba Walker sums it up perfectly, he who arrived in Boston two years ago with certain ambitions. But now it is traded, symbol of the problems on the side of the Celtics. Brad Stevens is also an example, he who is no longer the coach.
His fans aren’t too disappointed, since Stevens simply switched roles. He is now at the front office, in charge of basketball operations. A welcome change for many, including players according to the latest information from Jared Weiss, for The Athletic.
At the end of the season, many players were in favor of a change of coach, believing that Brad Stevens was unable to hold the players accountable. Some even thought he made Marcus Smart his little favorite over the others.
To say how deep the problem was, some Celtics advised Blake Griffin not to come to this team, when he came to collect some opinions. This is to say the dysfunction present in Boston, and it may not be over yet.
One thing is certain, things are changing. Stevens is no longer the coach, Walker is no longer around, and we can expect further changes in the roster. Boston wants to take a new turn, hoping it is not too late.
Something is wrong with the Celtics, and drama Brad Stevens comes to prove it. Hopefully for them things will be different in 2022, or the awakening will be rude.
