Following their playoff elimination, Boston Celtics President Brad Stevens emphasizes careful decision-making for the offseason. The franchise is confronted with challenges, including Jayson Tatum's injury and significant payroll costs projected to reach nearly $500 million. Stevens highlights the priority of building a championship-contending team while wrestling with financial implications and potential ownership changes. He stresses the need for clarity and thoughtful planning in order to navigate the upcoming season successfully.
"At the end of the day I think that will all be driven by the same thing that's always driven us and that's 'How do we get ourselves in the mix to compete for championships best?'"
"The north star is to have a championship contender, right? So you have to do what's best to give yourself the best opportunity to do that when you can do that."
