Stevens best picks are simply amazing. Smart, Rozier, Brown, Nader, Tatum, and Ojeleye are all contributing for Boston this season. The Brown and Tatum duo is going to be huge in the future as those two players continue to grow together, and they may one day be one of the best duos in the league.

Brad Stevens is going to win an NBA title in Boston, and he will likely be the Celtics coach for a long, long time. If he continues to draft like he has, the Celtics will be good for the next decade plus, and it’s not even in question. Stevens has grown into one of the league’s best coaches and he’s able to pull so much out of his talented players. So, don’t fret Boston Celtics fans, because this team is in extremely good hands.
