Season 4 of View from the Rafters: Behind the Scenes with the Boston Celtics has been our best season yet. We've brought on four Celtics starters in Jaylen Brown, Kristaps Porzingis, Jrue Holiday and Derrick White. We've brought on legends like Isaiah Thomas, Paul Pierce and Antoine Walker. And amid all of these episodes we have had some crazy and never-before-told stories come out. This episode is all about taking the greatest segments from all of those episodes and stitching them all together as one. Buckle up and enjoy!   1:00 – Jrue Holiday on the competitive nature of his relationship with 2x USWNT gold medalist Lauren Holiday, and facing Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks for the first time as a Celtic   13:00 – A plane seat and a fateful care ride lead to Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis becoming Cookies & Cream   19:00 – Isaiah Thomas relives his epic 53-point game in Game 2 of the 2017 ECSF, on his late sister's birthday   26:00 – Derrick White and Richard White on Derrick's upbringing, and Richard teaching him to become a winning player   35:00 - Paul Pierce, Eddie House and Sam Cassell on trash talk, and Cassell stealing the 2008 championship game ball   41:00 – Neemias Queta explains how he went from growing up in Portugal to attending Utah State   47:00 – Paul Pierce and Antoine Walker remember watching each other win titles, and being ahead of their time in firing up 3-pointers in massSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After being traded to the Boston Celtics the day before training camp, Jrue Holiday has taken on the challenge of moving to a new city and accepting a new role on a new team. He dives into his experience, how he's embraced having the ball in his hands less and how it all comes down to one thing: winning.   Winning a championship alongside Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and the rest of the Celtics is his one and only goal on the NBA court, but as Holiday explains, his competitive nature doesn't stay in the locker room. He says it follows him home, into a house that features one of the most competitive families in the country. Holiday and his wife, two-time soccer gold-medalist and former US Women's National Team member Lauren Holiday, can't be on opposing teams for anything for fear of an argument. And now, their extreme wills to win have passed on to their kids to create an interesting dynamic to say the least. Holiday often calls his daughter “JT,” and he tells a story about how his son thought Jayson Tatum's sneakers were actually his sister's.   The second half of the episode dives into Holiday playing against his former team, the Milwaukee Bucks, for the first time and drawing the assignment to guard all-world forward Giannis Antetokounmpo. Was that actually Holiday's idea? Maybe, he says. Holiday has now played alongside Antetokounmpo, Tatum, Brown, Anthony Davis, DeMarcus Cousins and on a gold medal-winning USA Men's Basketball Team, so Marc and Abby ask him about common threads among the best of the best. The group rounds out the conversation by diving into Holiday's experience at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics – AKA the Covid Olympics – and how bizarre it was for him to see Team USA's opponents act like fanboys around the likes of Tatum and Kevin Durant.   0:30 – Jrue on his love for food   2:30 – Adjusting to playing with Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, and how they differ from other superstars he's played with   13:15 – Jrue on his competitive nature, and how that impacts his marriage to USWNT soccer great Lauren Holiday, who's also extremely competitive   22:10 – Flipping to the other side of the Celtics/Bucks rivalry, playing the Bucks for the first time, and defending Giannis   31:00 – Jrue's experience at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics   35:15 – How the bubble led to the launch of his family's JLH FundSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bienvenidos a Café y NBA, el podcast diario en el que podrás enterarte de todo lo que necesitas saber sobre la NBA, en menos de lo que te tomas un café. Vamos a empezar hoy alegres el podcast con un par de noticias solidarias. Por un lado la NBA ha creado unas mascarillas con logotipos de todas las franquicias de la liga, y donará todos los beneficios de las ventas a fondos de ayuda relacionados con el coronavirus. Por otro lado, Jrue Holiday ha comunicado que utilizará el resto de su salario de esta temporada, algo más de 5 millones de dólares, en crear junto a su mujer una organización benéfica a la que va a llamar Jrue and Lauren Social Justice Impact Fund, que centrará sus esfuerzos en ayudar a la comunidad negra a través de la financiación de negocios sin ánimo de lucro enfocados a dicha comunidad. Por cierto Lauren Holiday, la mujer de Jrue, es una conocidísima exjugadora de fútbol allí en Estados Unidos, de hecho fue internacional en más de 100 partidos con la selección americana, y el mes pasado escribió un artículo en The Players Tribune describiendo cómo ha vivido ella, como mujer blanca americana, el racismo desde hace muchos años en la piel de su marido. Y cuenta una anécdota muy curiosa que me apetece compartir con vosotros. Dice Lauren que cuando lo presentó como su novio a su mejor amiga, ella le dijo que era “el chico negro más blanco que había conocido nunca”, por lo “educado e inteligente” que parecía, y la propia Lauren sabía que su amiga dijo aquello como un cumplido, pero también sabía que era un comentario totalmente racista y tristemente, muy extendido en la sociedad americana. Los famosos prejuicios… Zion Williamson ha abandonado el jueves a primera hora la burbuja de Orlando para atender a una urgencia médica familiar. Por respeto a la familia de Zion, ni los Pelicans ni la NBA han dado más detalles sobre cual es el problema familiar de Zion ni sobre a quién afecta. Desde aquí, desearle lo mejor a Zion, que todo vaya bien, que su familiar se recupere pronto y que podamos tenerle de vuelta para el comienzo de la competición. La propia NBA ha informado a los Pelicans de que Zion deberá informar a su vuelta de absolutamente todo lo que haya hecho, incluido dónde ha estado, y una vez hecho eso, se decidirá el procedimiento a seguir para su vuelta al equipo. En el mejor de los casos, estaríamos hablando otra vez de pasar dos días sin salir de la habitación del hotel, pero si la NBA considera que ha estado en situación de riesgo de contagio, su cuarentena podría complicarse y multiplicarse en el tiempo. En el episodio del miércoles os conté que Michael Beasley había dado positivo y se iba para casa, y os contaba, aplicando lógica pura, no porque lo hubiesen publicado, que lo lógico era pensar que no iba a jugar esta temporada, pues no solo tenía que pasar el coronavirus sino que además arrastra esa sanción de 5 partidos que parece que le va a perseguir eternamente, y dicho y hecho, los Nets ya han anunciado que no le van a esperar y que ya están buscando un sustituto. Suena Justin Anderson como recambio temporal para este cierre de temporada. La joven estrella de los Kings, De’Aaron Fox, ha sufrido un esguince de tobillo en los entrenamientos, que le mantendrá alejado de las pistas al menos durante una semana. Aunque de momento no parece que peligre su participación en el primer partido de los Kings, fechado para el 31 de julio, parece que Fox podría perder un tiempo muy valioso de cara a llegar en el mejor estado de forma posible a los 8 partidos que les quedan a los Kings esta temporada para intentar arrebatar la última plaza de PlayOffs de la Conferencia Oeste a los Grizzlies. Seguimos hablando de lesiones, quién sí se despide de la temporada por lesión es Trey Lyles, después de haber sido operado hoy de urgencias al sufrir apendicitis. El jugador de los San Antonio Spurs estaba promediando esta temporada más de 20 minutos por partido y había sido titular en 53 partidos. Han pillado a Dwight Howard sin mascarilla fuera de la habitación. Ha sido el propio jugador quien ha confirmado la noticia en un directo de Instagram. ¿Os acordáis de la aplicación de chivatazos que os conté hace un par de programas que tienen los jugadores? Pues entre aquellos múltiples chivatazos que os dije que había recibido la NBA, uno de ellos habría sido sobre el pivot de los Lakers. De nuevo, secretismo absoluto por parte de la NBA que no quiere que estas cosas se filtren a la prensa para dar una buena imagen al exterior sobre lo que está pasando en la burbuja. Nos hemos enterado solamente porque el protagonista, el jugador al que han pillado, ha querido reconocerlo públicamente. Ahora que todavía no hay liga y no están muy tensas las cosas, la aplicación también está sirviendo como tema de conversación humorístico en las ruedas de prensa, Doc Rivers, entrenador de los Clippers, estuvo bromeando en la última con que estaba enviando avisos falsos, el día anterior sobre LeBron James y ese mismo día estaba yendo contra Gregg Popovich, dijo Rivers que ganará el anillo gracias a eliminar rivales con la aplicación… Ya fuera de bromas, parece que entre los chivatazos y los que directamente se han saltado la cuarentena, los jugadores están dando la razón a Damian Lillard, que dijo a primeros de mes que no se fiaba nada de que los jugadores cumplieran las estrictas normas de seguridad de la burbuja. Parece un buen momento para que la NBA actúe, antes de que pierdan el control de la situación. Anuncio el ganador del sorteo de la Baraja del Jugón que organicé en Twitter para promocionar el Podcast. Gracias por las reviews de 5 estrellas en iTunes | Apple Podcast.

Since there is ever so much soccer, its a Filibuster on a Monday! We start by reminicing about howl long it has been since we recorded on a Sunday (miss you, Martin), before getting into the meat of the podcast. D.C. United actually played Chicago last week, and we talk about Conor Doyle's golazo and the formation that the team employed in that game. We also talk about the draw against Toronto FC, and start off with the stellar performance of Steve Birnbaum in that game. We then talk about the defense overall and how impressed we were by them and how they did not give up a goal against one of the highest-priced attacks in the league. Finally, we talk about how TFC didn't really create many chances, despite the popular narrative that they dominated the game. We move onto tomorrow's game against the Philadelphia Union in the US Open Cup, and how the Union have been burning up their starters in the league. We argue that they should concentrate on the Open Cup, because they have a better chance at pulling a 2013 D.C. United then doing well in this regular season. We also talk about Friday's game against the Seattle Sounders, who will be getting Clint Dempsey back from suspension but will be missing Obafemi Martins. We compare Dempsey's suspension to what Cuauhtémoc Blanco got, and then talk about what Dempsey will do in this game and how United will have to play to win. Finally, we talk more about the 2015 World Cup and start with discussing their high press. We ask whether or not missing Lauren Holiday and Megan Rapinoe made the USWNT better, their central midfield tactics, and how the United States will approach this game against Germany.

It is an extra-long episode of Filibuster today, both because there is so much soccer to talk about and because Adam has abandoned us for fairer climes. Jason, Ben, and Leanne press onwards, opening the show talking about D.C. United's 3-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Riverhounds in the US Open Cup. We talk about how, despite leaving the game a little late, it is still a good win, as well as talking about Jalen Robinson specifically and what we want to see from him going forward. We then move onto D.C. United's 2-1 comeback victory over the New England Revolution. We talk about how the beginning of the game wasn't great, and then break down Fabian Espindola's role, whether it be goal scorer or provider. With a curse to the MLS schedule makers, we then move onto tonight's game against the Chicago Fire, and talk about Mike Magee, what worries about the Fire but why in the end United should beat them (because they're not very good right now). For the last MLS game of the week, we wrap up by talking about the Toronto FC game on the weekend. Sebastian Giovinco still scares us, Toronto FC can play physical like we do, and United's best strategy might actually be to just bypass the midfield to get the ball away from Michael Bradley. And since there wasn't enough soccer to talk about, we have to break down the USWNT and their game against Colombia. We talk about why you shouldn't feel great even with the win, the yellow cards received by Lauren Holiday and Megan Rapinoe, the ever-changing right midfielder, and how to win in spite of your flaws. It is a super-sized episode, so strap in and give it a listen!
