Should the Boston Celtics hire a shooting coach?

Related Topics: Andy Enfield, Boston Celtics

The Boston Celtics have long been league leaders in staying ahead of the NBA arms race, but it seems they have recently fallen behind in arguably the most important offensive development in decades - the league’s proliferation of dedicated shooting coaches.

To be fair, the Celtics have had a dedicated shooting coach in the past (Andy Enfield, now head coach at USC, was hired by Boston in the late 1990s for the position), but for whatever reason, chose not to continue hiring for the position as the modern NBA became especially geared towards three-point shooting in recent years.
