    Maybe Texans aren't as dumb as I thought.

    The Celtics are unbelievable, just imagine that team with Hayward and Kyrie Back. Brad Stevens should win the coach of the year.

    lol, my age bracket is "old", but I'm a kid compared to lanny (just kidding lanny). Sixers had Wilt, Hal Greer, Chet the Jet Walker, Luke Jackson with Billy Cunningham being a young buck coming off the bench.

    Damn, the Celtics without their two stars are up 1-0 in the 2nd round of the playoffs with an 8 man rotation. Simply Amazing

    Completely agree...he's probably my favorite NBA coach period....he can coach any roster and probably succeed..he should get coach of the year all said and done

    Stevens is everything a New England fan wants and what the NBA would like.

    I like Stevens A LOT, but let's not go crazy.
    Horford, Brown, and Tatum drafted #3 overall.
    Smart drafted #6.
    Monroe drafted #7....

    and this doesn't count Hayward and Kyrie.

    The current Blazers, for example, have nothing like this.

    Matter of fact they were trying to get both Monroe and Hayward and if they did get one or both they would be in a pretty good place also.

    It's interesting, they're a team full of players that seemed like reaches at their draft position at the time, but have panned out and/or fit the system beautifully.

    True, now I want to see Stotts coaching that team and let’s see if he can even win one playoff game.

    Except Wikipedia isn't actually the source, just the aggregator of the data. The sources of the data are linked at the bottom of the wiki. Easier for me to post the accumulation of the info rather than multiple links.
