Brad Stevens takes a lesson on ball-movement from Mastermind Gregg Popovich
The Celtics New Years Eve loss to the Spurs may have been a bit of a turning point for the guys in green. Brad Stevens seems to think that his players watching San Antonio sharing the ball benefited his guys.
Brad Stevens says it benefited the Celtics to witness San Antonio's ball movement on New Year's Eve. They've been whipping the ball around ever since, with 30+ assists during every game.
