The Boston Celtics could be looking at centers in free agency after a first-round exit in the NBA playoffs. After the season ended, Brad Stevens noted that he thinks the Celtics need to add to their team to have a bigger impact at the rim.
“My general feeling watching us play in really each of the last two playoffs — the second round against New York, even against Orlando in the first round (last year) — was we had a hard time generating really good looks on that first shot,” Stevens said on Wednesday. “So we’ve got to figure out a way to do better in that, and I think that one of the things that we’ve got to figure out is how to have more of an impact at the rim. And I think we do need to add to our team to do that.”
