Growth, experience evident as Brad Stevens, Gordon Hayward reunite
Credit: Associated PressLAS VEGAS — Brad Stevens and Gordon Hayward are converging with each other for the second time in their careers, and what each is going to find is a refined version of what they once knew.
Ron Nored was there the first time, as point guard on the Butler team that came within a desperation Hayward heave of beating Duke for the 2010 NCAA championship. He joined Stevens’ first Celtics staff in 2013-14, working with the Maine Red Claws.
Nored understands the change in both men as well as anyone.
