5fouls Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 5 minutes ago, JerseyHoosier said: Brad did have this to say three days ago. https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/brad-stevens-addresses-rumors-hes-a-candidate-for-indiana-hoosiers-vacancy-im-the-coach-of-the-celtics/ This is what drives me crazy. The second paragraph does not support the bold statement in the first sentence. But, while Stevens is appreciative of the support that he has in his home state, he made it clear that he has no plans of leaving his current position with the Celtics. "It means a lot," Stevens said, via ESPN. "It means a lot. I know that ... listen, I've got a lot of friends back there. I've got a lot of people that are really important to me there. My dad's still there. That does mean a lot. I won't act like that doesn't. Like I said earlier today, it's flattering. But I also realize that I'm the coach of the Celtics and that's -- it's been an amazing opportunity, an amazing challenge every day for the last eight years and I'm extremely grateful for that." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have second thoughts about working for a guy who was leaking info as I was negotiating a contract with him. I'd be LIVID 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inequality Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 7 minutes ago, 5fouls said: Yeah. I've been thinking the same thing. At this point, whoever is hired will have to knock it out of the park in the press conference to lift up what will be a disappointed fanbase. So....it might be a bad idea to wear our ‘Welcome Home Coach STEVENS!’ shirts to the presser? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolson certainly would be out there saying something to squash all of this. Think about the reaction if he announces that we hired Beilein. A potentially great hire, but there would be a collective moan from the fanbase. i can't see him making an announcement that we are NOT pursuing Stevens. why would he do that? seems like a weird thing to announce.

MoyeCowbell Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 The less Dolson says until whatever deal is signed, the better he looks. It's that simple. Placating fans with tidbits of information and coy, vague language is a recipe for disaster. Dolson stating what he wants/means, with succinct clarity at the right time, will command respect. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierfan1215 Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 Think there will be any Hoosier flavor on the staff in assistant form? Lewis? Guyton? Cheaney? If it’s stevens anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
