I really can’t see how it’s justifiable for the Celtics to even consider firing Stevens? He has over performed with his team multiple teams, the only real let down was the 4-1 series loss to Milwaukee, you could say he failed to manage egos with a boatload of talent.

What excuse is there for Ainge tho? It wasn’t that long ago that people were speculating the Celtics would own the 2020 decade as a dynasty with their war chest of assets. A solid All-Star like Hayward walked for just a TPE to show for it. Nothing was made of Kyrie, they backpedaled into Walker for free by a stroke of luck but it’s looking like he isn’t going to fit into their contention window and that they might try to shop him for whatever they can salvage. I really do not understand passing on Myles Turner for Hayward. Then there’s all the premium picks that were allowed to rot into depreciating assets. Butler was there, George was there, Kawhi was there, all for the taking instead of what amounted to mediocre draft picks

If they fire Stevens I'd do everything I could to sign him.

But really anything would be an improvement over Scott Brooks so 🤷🏿‍♀️

Ainge wanted AD. He didn't get him and got cold feet. Fire his ass.

I don’t understand how he doesn’t trade the 2 picks that were Romeo Langford (nom existent) and Aaron nesmith. So many picks used for a trash bench

Would have to agree, even a good coach like Bud would be on the chopping block for a replacement like Stevens.

Was this the year they had Kyrie, Rozier, Morris, Horford, Jays, Hayward?

I think the best thing to do is to consolidate Smart and Timelord into a long term piece like Collins if it’s available
