The Boston Celtics announced Wednesday evening that Brad Stevens (formerly the head coach at Butler University) had been hired to replace Doc Rivers as head coach. The move came as a surprise to many, although much of the surprise came from how unexpected the move was. There are many high-profile coaches currently unemployed, including Stan Van Gundy and 2013 NBA Coach of the Year George Karl, and Stevens had not been rumored to be a potential candidate for any of the openings over the last two months.
