Angry Brad Stevens on Adding Players, Mazzullas Job, How Good Team Really Is [NQryMhd1u3p]
Boston Celtics eye bold roster changes after a disappointing playoff exit. Can Brad Stevens find the missing piece to push the team past the league’s elite? John Karalis of Celtics On SI highlights how the Celtics’ struggles to generate quality shots and attack the rim exposed glaring weaknesses against top defenses like the Philadelphia 76ers and rim protector Joel Embiid. Analysis includes Stevens’ direct admission that Boston lacks the personnel to consistently finish at the rim, sparking speculation about potential additions—could a new center or high-level ball-handler be on the way? The discussion addresses Neemias Queta’s development, roster flexibility under CBA constraints, and Joe Mazzulla’s future after a turbulent postseason. Tom Westerholm joins to break down the coaching staff’s impact and whether Celtics fans are undervaluing the significance of their recent championship.
