Yeah well deserved with the moves to bring in Porzingis and Holiday.

He should be arrested for the heist he pulled, and they're rewarding him instead, there is no justice in this world...

Maybe I'm biased but felt like the obvious choice. The Celtics were at a point as a top seeded title contender that is REALLY difficult to improve and he swung a couple of pretty major acquisitions. Other guys on the list have done a great cumulative job, but not as much heavy lifting this past offseason (Presti, Connelly). Stevems has done a great cumulative job and had some key moves this year so from any angle really he was the pick here IMO.

I think getting Derek White last year was actually the best move Stevens has made a POBO. Holiday and Porzingis are also some amazing moves, but for pure bang for the buck, it's hard to beat the White deal.

Are these votes public?

Who gave Monte McNair a 1st place vote?

Well deserved. He's been a fantastic Ainge replacement.

Pretty obvious choice, getting Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday for Marcus Smart, Malcolm Brogdon, and peanuts.

Porzingis and Jrue for Brogdan, Williams and Smart.

LIKE HOWWWWW lol.

Terrible decision. The Pistons brain trust clearly should have won that, walking away. Walking away. Walking away. Keep going...walking away.

And White

Sure, but Derrick White was added the previous year.

I don't understand how other front offices don't just blacklist phone numbers from the Boston area.

I really liked the trade deadline moves he made as well. Though pretty minor. Will see if those bare any fruit.

is there a list for a runner up?

because past 2 seasons the signings and trades leon rose has done have been incredible, and they still have a bunch of first round picks .. including bucks 2025.

There are ways around this but I did laugh at this :lol:

Congrats to Stevens, the work he did in the offseason was monumental and the court product was NBA best so this is much deserved.

Brad Stevens might actually be better than Ainge, which is saying something.

Ainge has his moments for sure, but is a bit overrated as a GM

Hey, that's Mr. "Drafted both Tatum and Brown and even tricked Philly into giving up more assets in the process in a completely unnecessary trade" Danny Ainge to you.

Congrats Brad & the Celtics! This was an obvious one.
