So much has changed since the last time the Celtics rode the duck boats through the Back Bay, and it changed in a hurry.

BOSTON -- Trade rumors continue to swirl around the Boston Celtics amid an offseason of retooling but Brad Stevens sent signals on Tuesday that more moves aren’t necessarily imminent for this Boston roster.

Brad Stevens had high praise for Jrue Holiday after trading him from the Celtics to the Trail Blazers this offseason.

While they have also considered more aggressive cost-cutting moves, which would position them to avoid the luxury tax next season, according to league sources, Stevens suggested he will only opt for such a strategy if he can do so without trading away significant draft capital.
