Brad Stevens Denies Telling Cedric Maxwell He Wouldn’t Want DeMarcus Cousins On Celtics

BOSTON (CBS) â?? 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Celtics color analyst Cedric Maxwell made some headlines recently when he said that C’s head coach Brad Stevens told him he wouldn’t want DeMarcus Cousins.

The talented, but troubled, Cousins was traded to the New Orleans Hornets shortly after the NBA All-Star game, a move that upset many Celtics fans because the center was traded for next to nothing. Max’s comments, made to 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Matt McCarthy and Greg Dickerson the Monday following the deal, didn’t help ease those frustrations.
