Celtics majority owner and Governor Wyc Grousbeck made a new appearance on Felger and Mazz on Tuesday, in the wake of the Celtics falling to the Warriors in the NBA Finals with a quick turn-around to the off-season.
As part of the call, Grousbeck addressed his expectations for President of Basketball Ops Brad Stevens in terms of improving the team. He put to rest any crazy ideas of blowing the team up, and instead alluded to future moves designed to bolster the core they have in place.
"We love the roster. We want to tweak it as opposed to blow it up, obviously, so we're going to see if there's any tweaks that make sense," Grousbeck said. "Continuity is clearly a good thing. We love our guys. We're just looking to add on."
Grousbeck also touched on various storylines that emerged throughout the season and his outlook on the team in both the short- and long-term. Listen above for the full interview.
