What is new Boston Celtics President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens hoping to do at his first-ever trade deadline with a team that desperately needs to sort out several glaring roster construction issues?
Short of psychic abilities, one would be hard-pressed to find out unless one asked the man himself, which is exactly what The Athletic Celtics beat writer Jay King recently did in a new, wide-ranging interview with the team president. Specifically, King grilled Stevens on what he thinks the team needs, what their approach to the tradeline might be, and a host of other related issues, making him an ideal intermediary for those of us trying to get a feel for what might be coming down the (Mass) pike.
Such was the focus of a recent NBC Sports Boston “Celtics Talk” podcast, where host Chris Forsberg and King got into the teeth of the trade season chatter.
Watch the podcast embedded above to hear their takes on what is shaping up to be an important, busy deadline.
