Cant wait for us to hire a new coach then he is let go after the season or next...this board will explode.

My mentions on this board will explode. Meanwhile, Archie and I will be laughing our way to IU credit union to withdraw our cash!

I don't think Brad will exactly get fired.. I find it hard to believe the Celtics make a change from top to bottom. They need to do something though. Fans are pissed!

Fans will really explode when he ends up at Duke, North Carolina, or Kentucky at some point! That has always been my fear since he left Butler.

Personally, if Brad gave us the heads up if things hit the fan come playoff times.... I'd hang onto Archie until then. Fans would be pissed these past two weeks but people would be over it, summer is coming!

He’s proven himself to be competent enough at the NBA level to have a long career there if he chooses. He could at a minimum be another Don Nelson or Rick Adelman if he stays around and never wins. Having said all that, Brad Stevens is a great coach and I would’ve loved to have hired him for this opening, but he still hasn’t won anything yet and the appearance of the young coach with lots of potential fades a bit each year. In 2011, if Matt Howard doesn’t get fouled against Pitt 95 ft from the basket with 0.9 seconds left are we even this thirsty for Stevens or is he just another possible candidate? Duke, UNC, and Kentucky are no picnics and getting close is not going to cut it at any of them. God bless whoever the next coach at Duke is and Kentucky fans are lunatics. UNC would have equal pressure to win but be a calmer atmosphere, as long as their next coach isn’t getting boat raced by K’s replacement. Terrible location aside, KU is the best college landing spot for him if it isn’t IU.

I’m at Durham and went to UNC for my MBA ——-not a calmer atmosphere.  They’re actually worse than us and if Bilas wasn’t on one knee with DUKE/UNC he would admit that as well.
