Mego and Lyons continue by talking about Jaylen Brown's rise to MVP consideration despite last night's loss in Milwaukee. Could a potential return of Jayson Tatum derail this run? Then, Rob Bradford joins in studio days after returning from the Winter Meetings and calls out the Red Sox like everyone else for letting a guy like Pete Alonso slip from their laps. And, when the Sox missed on Max Fried they quickly went to Garrett Crochet. However, they can't do this with the power bat in losing Pete Alonso.

The Celtics' 5 game win streak comes to an end after a true tale of two halves. They lost 116-101 after being up 67-60 in the first half. They scored 35 points in the first quarter and just 34 points in the entire second half.... They shot 15 for their last 54 which is just 27% and ended the game at 38.6% from the field which is their lowest of the year. JB and Walsh combined for 50 of the teams 101 points and did it on a very efficient 66% from the field and 62% from 3 so that really goes to show you how poorly everyone else shot in this one.... Bobby Portis and Kyle Kuzma were unstoppable and shifted this game entirely for the Bucks. We break it all down along with a full player analysis in the podcast.

They then move over to another power house in the NBA's Eastern Conference as Jaylen Brown has put together a career season for the Boston Celtics while serving as the team's #1 option in the absence of Jayson Tatum and debate what a successful season looks like for the C's before reacting to Brown's comments on floppers with a direct shot at Shai Gilgeous Alexander.

Hawks — 3:36Should the Hawks trade Trae Young plus two juicy Bucks/Pels picks for Giannis, and how would that look from both teams' perspectives?If the Hawks keep Trae, re-sign him reasonably, and just add this incoming Pelicans pick, can that path ever realistically lead to a championship?Do you buy Onyeka Okongwu's three-point shooting, and if you do, is he a top-15 center in the league?Celtics — 13:20If you're the Celtics, how should you play out the rest of the season—go all out because there's no super-team in the East, or pull back at some point to protect health?How useful will their increased turnover forcing and more egalitarian offense be once Jayson Tatum returns, and which rotation guys could actually be part of a high-level playoff rotation?Is Jaylen Brown genuinely improved compared to prior years, or is it mostly that the mid-range is falling more; and if it's shot luck, how long would he have to sustain this for it to be “real”?Nets — 22:36Is Michael Porter more valuable to the Nets as an on-court player to get them back into the playoff mix, or as a trade asset?Can you do as deep a dive as possible on Noah Clowney's game and development?Were pundits too quick to call the Nets' draft a disaster given how much their rookies are now playing?Hornets — 31:06What has happened to LaMelo Ball—he was an All-Star before, so is this decline just injuries and lack of progression?What are some potential trades for Miles Bridges, Ball, and Sexton?Do you sense a shift in the Hornets' organizational philosophy under the new regime?Bulls — 39:10John Hollinger has said the Suns turned down the Pelicans/Hawks pick deal; do you know if that exact deal (or better) was offered to other teams like the Bulls or Blazers, or is that just logical inference?Should the Bulls go all-in and trade for Anthony Davis, and what could they realistically get for Coby White if Artūras Karnišovas canvassed the league?The Bulls are trying to make up for their talent deficit by running on everything—does that strategy backfire (more injuries, better teams separating with more possessions), or is it actually their best path?Cavs — 50:20How concerned are you about the Cavs' bad start, and in particular about Darius Garland's play and health?What are your thoughts on Jaylon Tyson's development so far?Should Cleveland start trying to get out of the second apron, and what would it take to do that?Pistons — 58:06Good or bad, what has been the most surprising thing about the Eastern Conference so far this season?Besides Giannis and Lauri Markkanen, what other players would be a good fit for the Pistons and actually gettable?Would Sam Hauser be a good target for the Pistons given his price point and role, and how does he fit relative to what they already have (e.g. Duncan Robinson–type shooters)?

Cavs continue to struggle in a watered down Eastern Conference while the C's are surging.
The Celtics beat the Raptors 121-113 and have moved into 3rd place in the Eastern Conference!!!! After an 0-3 start to this season, I don't think anybody expected this type of turnaround and certainly not this fast but here we are. I did say coming into this season that this team was going to be a lot of fun to watch but they probably weren't going to be much more than a .500 team. I was certainly wrong about the record but I was definitely right about how much fun this team has been. Mazzulla has these guys all bought in and playing their hearts out and it has been awesome to see so many guys on different nights contributing to their success. Derrick White and JB were huge in tonight's win but they really did get contributions all over the place. White had some clutch shots and defensive plays down the stretch and JB was 6-6 from the FT line in the 4th solidifying this win.
