Este no era el año. Este equipo no debía ser aspirante a ganar la NBA. Estos no eran unos Celtics temibles tras tantos traspasos y la durísima lesión de Jayson Tatum. Pues... resulta que sí, que ya nadie puede dudar de ellos y que están sembrando el pánico. La vuelta de Tatum está a la vuelta de la esquina, por fin, y quién sabe si el MVP para Jaylen Brown empieza a parecer una más que posible realidad. Temporada que encumbra, aún más, a Brad Stevens y Joe Mazzulla. Y a Hugo y a Derrick White y a Queta y a Walsh, etc, etc, etc. Qué mérito y qué respeto se están ganando los nuevos Boston Celtiberics.

Tom Haberstroh, Amin Elhassan and producer Anthony Mayes want you to burn some calories when parsing breaking news stories for truth, instead of simply wanting it to be true. This season may strike the death knell for the 65 game rule, as we could have an MVP by default and entirely new All NBA Teams with major cap ramifications.

The Celtics comfortably took care of business on the road against the Suns, cruising to a 97-81 victory against a Phoenix Suns team. The story of the game was the Celtics defense which was locked down against the Suns and held them to just 11 points in the 3rd quarter. Celtics were lead by Derrick White who lead all Celtics scorers 22 points in the victory with Jaylen Brown out for this game.

Greg gives his lead about a prank call to CSPAN. Then we get to They Said It where we hear from drunk Team USA, Joe Mazzulla, and Lebron believes Jaylen Brown should be squarely in the MVP discussion.

As the Celtics returned from their All star break, their Finals and coach of the year odds don't seem to be getting the respect that they deserve. Is there any team in the NBA who has a better story than Joe Mazzulla and the C's right now? Then, Christian gives his thoughts on Scottie Scheffler's cut streak during PGA events and Olympic events people at WEEI would be good at in the Arcand Fire.

But while Porzingis is a supremely talented player, Dalzell acknowledged that his lack of availability has been a constant concern, even when he was a part of a championship-level Celtics squad in 2024. She also explains how Jaylen Brown and Joe Mazzulla have grown in their respective roles, as Boston currently sits at the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference, despite the absence of Jayson Tatum, who suffered a torn Achilles tendon in last year's playoffs.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Three people deserve the most credit for where the Celtics are at: Jaylen Brown for playing at a legit MVP level, Joe Mazzulla for adapting to the roster he's been given, and Brad Stevens for constructing a great roster while shedding money.

Before the Celtics resume their season in Golden State tomorrow night, we look at the first stretch of the season and how incredible its been. How much credit do Jaylen Brown and Joe Mazzulla get for carrying the load? Then, the lingering Jayson Tatum return remains the cloud floating over the C's which shouldn't be game-altering in a negative sense. And, someone really liked what the Red Sox did this offseason enough to give them an A-grade.

Celtics' contributor for Barstool Sports Dan Greenberg joins the show to explain how Joe Mazzulla's adaptability has helped the C's get to where they're at and why there shouldn't be any roadblocks with Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown on the court.

Jayson Tatum's potential returns seems to have overshadowed how great of a season the Celtics are having without. How have Jaylen Brown, Joe Mazzulla, and Brad Stevens been the main reasons for that success? Then, Arcand Fire features a big controversy between the Red Sox and fanatics while two postgame comments from the college basketball world are under some heavy scrutiny. And, we've got a fight stemming from pickleball down in Florida in tonight's Clickbait.

Getting away from the off the court things, Jayson Tatum's play on the court as a shape-shifter or a chameleon could lend greatly towards a potential return. How could Tatum fare well with Jaylen Brown as the top option? Then, Dan Greenberg from Barstool Sports joins the show and credits Joe Mazzulla's adaptability and a true understanding of his roster for how successful this season has been for the C's. And, Buster Olney ranked the top 10 players at each position and the Red Sox doesn't have that much representation.

Sherrod Blakely, Kwani Lunis, and Gary Washburn discuss the latest on the Celtics gearing up for the home stretch of the regular sesaon now that the All-Star game is over; the expectations from the J's - Jaylen Brown, Joe Mazzulla and Jayson Tatum; the circumstances behind Jaylen Brown's All-Star weekend event being cut short; Gary's take on an All-Star weekend eyesore; and the possible return of Al Horford whom the Celtics will see on Thursday when Boston plays at Golden State.

“I'm going to be the best basketball player I can ever be and I'm also going to be the best father that I can ever be.” Boston Celtics superstar Jayson Tatum sits down with Ryan, Channing and Fred for a raw, wide-ranging conversation that goes far beyond the headlines and boxscore. Tatum opens up about battling through injury, the moment he nearly walked away from the game, and the mental toll that comes with carrying expectations at the highest level. Recently returning to the court for rehab and light work, the 6x time NBA All Star and World Champion opens up on how the last year has been the toughest in his life, admitting self-doubt, questioning his will to heal and contemplating his return this season. Winning a title with Celtics etched his name in Boston royalty, although the high expectations still move him to chase the legends who've come before him while his focus remains on getting back to a championship. Jayson was upfront about working through past growing pains with Jaylen Brown, the pressures of being a face of the NBA and the three words Joe Mazzulla whispered to him during the biggest moments of their Championship run. A self-proclaimed mama's boy, he shares a deep understanding of sacrifice, hard work and how growing up with little motivated him being raised by a single mom but candidly he opens up on why he values the relationship with his father differently but still a bond he appreciates. With the anniversary of Kobe Bryant's passing, Jayson Tatum reveals how he was inspired by the icon and modeled his life based on certain experiences and explains why he is completely appalled with anyone questioning Kobe's contributions to the game. He reflects on representing Team USA in 2024 on the Olympic stage, what that experience taught him, his true in-the-moment feelings with Steve Kerr and how it reshaped his perspective as a leader but also as a man. From embracing the weight of Boston's historic legacy to navigating fatherhood while still chasing greatness, Tatum shares how his humble beginnings continue to ground him. Honest, reflective, and powerful—this is Jayson Tatum like you've never heard him before.
