One of best if not best thing that happened to Boston in the last 10 years

Brad Stevens is executive of the year, no question, really admire the aggressive of the Celtics front office, they're never content, they lost to Miami last year, and they got better and now they're champions

Agree- most of Brad Stevens transactions turned out to be right. Trading for Derrick White and getting Jrue Holiday - homerun! Amazing

But he never got his team over the top. It did help that pieces were in place, if Danny had traded away the assets like most fans wanted they would not have been there. Bad moves-name a draft pick by Brad. Bringing Brad to Boston-Danny did that. Bringing Mazula to Boston Danny did that. Who jumped started Celtics turn around. Danny did that trading away Paul and KG. Tatum draft day trade. Most people did not have Tatum on radar as #1. But you want GM none better than Red. When he wins 11 titles than compare. Also was head coach and GM without the 8 man staff.
