Boston is a city of champions. The New England Patriots just wrapped up a 15-year dynasty (and might be starting a new one). The Boston Red Sox seem to be back in title contention. The Boston Bruins are perennially good. The Boston Celtics are tied for the most rings in NBA history. Needless to say, fans always have extremely high expectations.
So, when the Celtics struggled last season, a lot of people began to point fingers. Some said the C’s should trade Jaylen Brown, some said the players weren’t playing up to par, and a large portion blamed then head coach Brad Stevens.
