Brad Stevens and the Celtics recognize the greatness of the Patriots

Following the Patriots’ thrilling victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship game Sunday, Celtics coach Brad Stevens joked the baby name selection process for his 12-year-old son, Brady, has panned out pretty well.

“It worked out great,” Stevens said before tip-off between the Celtics and Miami Heat at TD Garden Monday.

Things, however, weren’t always that way.

“It seems like a great thing now, but when we were at daycare and there were two Peytons next to him on the first day, it was a little bit rough when we lived in Indianapolis,” said Stevens, who was born and raised in Indiana.
