Thanks for the welcomes. The most curious part of this process for me has been the absolute silence from the administration. I respect that they don’t want to dance on Woody’s grave, and I certainly understand the complexities of candidates currently coaching and under contract, but you’d think there would be some mainstream reports digging in and we’ve seen next to nothing. Kudos to the administration, but it doesn’t help my impatience which obviously should be their number 1 concern.

I’ve been lurking here for a couple of days and have really enjoyed the read. Place me in the category of hoping for Stevens but pessimistic about the chances. Brad seems like a straight shooter to me and his V-Day comment, while not as staunch as the Masshole proclamation, suggests to me that he is out. I pray I’m wrong. But for those that don’t understand why he’d leave the NBA front office of one of its premier teams, I’d just argue that he has a chance to be a legend. Nobody will remember the president of the Celtics who helmed a handful of championships, but Brad could own Indiana. He could have a statue. He could have the new basketball stadium named after him. But, he seems like a good man with little ego unlike us mere mortals.
