Celtics swept by Cavs

Three months later, after his team's 2014-15 campaign ended as the Cleveland Cavaliers completed a four-game sweep of the Celtics in an Eastern Conference first-round series on Sunday at TD Garden, Stevens again kept coming back to the same word while trying to assess Boston's improbable and highly entertaining season.

"I think the best way to phrase it is I like our progress but I like to win," Stevens said. "So I'm disappointed right now. But it's not at anybody or at myself -- it's just, you're disappointed to lose. We have to get better. We have to get better in every which way, and that's the challenge ahead. Because winning's a lot more fun."
