Inside an illuminating story on the Giannis Antetokounmpo trade market from The Athletic’s Sam Amick and Eric Nehm, the two writers reported that there are indications the Milwaukee Bucks star is “very intrigued with the prospect of joining” the Boston Celtics.While the Celtics weren’t the only team Amick and Nehm linked to Antetokounmpo, his apparent interest in the team’s situation raises the question of how Brad Stevens, president of basketball operations, should approach the 10-time NBA All-Star’s potential availability. Amick and Nehm reported that “it remains to be seen if Boston will chase (Antetokounmpo).”So what factors will Stevens need to weigh over the coming weeks while determining whether to pursue Antetokounmpo and how aggressively to do so? First, Stevens must evaluate what he has in his own organization. Unsurprisingly, he sounded disappointed after the Celtics bowed out of the first round for just the second time in the last decade. During an end-of-season news conference, Stevens emphasized that the team needs to put more pressure on the rim and hinted that personnel changes are necessary to ensure that change happens. Stevens also went out of his way to bring up the Celtics’ poor record against the league’s other top teams and declared that the competition will be better next season with fewer teams expected to prioritize their draft positioning over winning. Based on the way he spoke about those two points, he seemed to consider his team’s regular-season record at least somewhat misleading.So if the Celtics believe they were far from championship caliber, how much do they need to change to reach that level again? And on a related note, how likely are they to take a swing as big as Antetokounmpo? Two quotes from Stevens’ press conference in early May seemed particularly relevant to the Antetokounmpo situation.The first: “I think the biggest thing is we will, like we normally do, take a little bit of time before we all meet and sit down and get together and determine kind of the best course of action for building A — the best team that we can that’s also sustainable over a long period.”
