  • Brad Stevens added some clarity to the Celtics offseason plans on Tuesday with his comments on the NBA draft, their summer plans, and running it back for a chance at another title. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal discusses all that and why running it back could be an even bigger challenge for the Celtics next season than overcoming questions was this season.

      @@therealdarrell282 I wonder what the Heat will do this offseason? They are letting Caleb Martin walk and the past few seasons they have let their role players walk into free agency.
      Now they claim that a healthy Rozier will do damage for the Miami Heat he is a volume scorer but does that move needle and does Miami pose as a threat to the Celtics. Like Haslem said claiming Tyler Herro is a superstar and Celtics should be fearful of 35 year old Jimmy Butler who people claim he is not suited to be a first option on a championship contender. He went to the finals twice and didn’t finish the job.

    Stevens was three steps ahead of everyone else with the second apron and new CBA. I think the biggest offseason need is to find a C or PF that can play 15-25 minutes in a Postseason game without being a liability. KP is the ultimate X factor and if he's healthy then they don't need to add anything but you also need KP insurance becasue of his injury risks. Horford and KP both need to be rested and they need an eventual Horford replacement so I think Stevens might use Pritchard or Hauser to find that third big.

      Pritchard, maybe because he can net you a 7 million player….but trading Hauser only gives you a 2 million player and that’s the cost of a vet min guy so Hauser is essentially useless as trade bait as he’s WAY more valuable to the Cs than anyone else

    I think best case scenario for the Celtics is Xavier Tillman spending the off-season with whatever shooting coach fixed Derrick White's shot in the 2022 offseason and then becoming the team's third big next year and eventually Al's replacement.

      I hope Tillman can succeed in this and be 75% of what Al has been….BUT he needs a contract and I really don’t have a sense yet on what that dollar amount ends up being.

    MOVE UP: for Yves Missi They around 6'10 whom have good frames like JT & #7uice you can develop to work with AL as their mentor at 6'9 plus is where we need insurance PF/C.
    STAY at #30: for Tyler Smith #Celtics #BradStevens is a genius and I know would go with the best option to build on their momentum AL realistically is getting older!!
    MOVE DOWN: Ulrich Chomche/ Oso Ighodaro draft them by trading into 2nd round to CHA/POR/SAS Like we could still acquire either of them at #40/42/48
    Lastly get JORDAN WALSH in strength and conditioning with #7uice so y'all have good depth at the wing staying healthy at Center & Guards!

    It’s not that you’re wrong John. It’s just the premise of the decision being made based on making the rotation next year or $9m.
    It’s about the board.
    As Brad said, if they have multiple options they weigh evenly they’ll review options.
    But, you can’t assume in a draft like this that the board reads in neat tiers or the players are all fungible.
    I believe Brad when he also spoke to this possibility as well.
    They’re carrying 5 Centers. That’s not a viable long term strategy with veterans. They’re ultra thin at the Wing. Steep drop off after T&B. Those guys don’t grow in trees.
    Sure they’ll find some vet minimum candidates, but I’m positive they do have a short list options to take multiple shots on goal, including the draft.
    Trading out entirely seems the least likely scenario.
