If you're a true basketball junkie, you'll over this.
> The Boston Celtics made a significant commitment to lure Brad Stevens to the NBA as coach, giving him a six-year, $22 million contract, sources told Yahoo! Sports.
Not a bad first NBA contract.

Celtics Hire Brad Stevens as Head Coach
> “Brad and I share a lot of the same values,” said Celtics President of Basketball Operations Danny Ainge. “Though he is young, I see Brad as a great leader who leads with impeccable character and a strong work ethic. His teams always play hard and execute on both ends of the court. Brad is a coach who has already enjoyed lots of success, and I look forward to working with him towards Banner 18.”
Are you kidding me? What a tremendous hire.
I doubt you will see a better dunk than Doug Anderson’s 360-between-the-legs slam this year.

In Defense of Brad Brownell at Clemson
“ggggmen08” writing on *Shakin the Southland*:
> Clemson basketball hasn’t been great the past two years, but they also haven’t been horrible. They finished 8-8 in the ACC last year and are 5-7 so far this season. I think mediocre is a more fair assessment. Expectations heading into this season were very low, too. They are currently in 8th place in the ACC, 1 spot ahead of where they were picked in the preseason polls.
I agree that those calling for Brownell’s head at this juncture are premature. Part of the problem this year has been the inability to close out games. I think they improve greatly in that area next year when they are a little more seasoned.
I always enjoy stories like this. Guy gets, essentially, kicked out town, and then comes back to beat his old team. It is even better that it is the Knicks getting beat.
