Brad Stevens

“This pick is based off which team I see willing to come together for the greater good. Boston made probably the heaviest move with the trade of IT for Kyrie. It will be interesting if the chemistry can continue as they try and repeat as the top team in the East.” –Aaron Reed

“Brad Stevens is out of excuses. He has all the firepower he could ever ask for. Kyrie Irving, Gordon Hayward, Al Horford, and Jaylen Brown will give the Cavaliers plenty to handle in a potential Eastern Conference Finals clash this coming season. Stevens is as prepared as any coach in the NBA, and it will all come together for the team this coming season in what should be a 60-win season.” –Evan Siegel
