00:00When it comes to tonight and to a little bit of a revenge opportunity

00:06With Steve Kerr and the opportunity to show him how wrong he was

00:12So he is gonna go off like I just I know it I can feel it in my bones

00:17This is gonna be like a historic night for Jason Tatum, and I think the whole team is gonna make sure that that happens

00:22Yeah, that's why hammer the over here. I think you're leaning toward

00:2717 leg parlay for this evening. I don't know. I don't know how many legs Courtney. It's simple

00:33Just two legs Tatum to score 50 Celtics to win by 15. It's gonna be like plus 2,500

00:39Okay, and Trump to win. What does that shine? It's probably like plus 2,500 Tatum to score how much?

00:4550 Oh 50 bird

00:49Also, didn't you didn't you say something about Pritchard the other day where he all all of his overs have hit

00:54Yes, so he has scored 15 or more points in six out of eight games

00:57And I believe his over is hit in six out of eight games. Oh

01:02That might be especially with Brown out to the the numbers gonna be inflated

01:05It's probably gonna be around 18, but with Brown out. There's a there's a good chance. He gets there, okay?

01:11Yeah, I mean a somebody expressing concern in the twitch chat that he is gonna lay an egg

01:19Because he's gonna be pressing too hard, but that's that's not

01:23Jason Tatum in my opinion. No

01:26What have you not like if you watched him play? I told you he got a whole new bag

01:29He's able to score in so many different ways

01:32His like his ability to get to the hole now and being physical and getting them

01:36You know getting a bunch of and one opportunities

01:38You see you see how he was able to do that in the Hawks game

01:42his ability to take guys off the dribble the fact that he's worked on his release now the catch-and-shoot or

01:48The step-back dribble with no hesitation with on that hitch that he had used to have

01:52Just allows him to just do so many different things with his game

01:56He's got a little small little low post game. You know playing with his back to the basket now

02:00so I

02:02Just think he does so much and you still look at teams teams are still running two guys at him every time he gets the

02:08Ball, but he does a such such a great job of creating and being able to find other guys that open up corner threes

02:14Are you know guys that can light it up from behind the three-point line?

02:19You can't win in this city seven eight one text Celtics are boring to watch because they win every basketball

02:25Oh my goodness. How is that boring? You don't like winning?

02:31So they bored for 20 years here in New England when it came to the Patriots like I

02:37Would say this team is the most exciting or interesting

02:40Dominant team to watch in recent memory like after your first of 15 birthday parties on Friday night

02:47I got back and I watched the end of that Grant Hill debacle

02:51I mean Grant Williams debacle against the Celtics in Charlotte like it tonight

02:56What's if they win by 60? It's more interesting than if they win by 10 tonight

03:00Because of what Steve Kerr did like it's gonna be an awesome environment at the garden tonight. Yeah

03:07Yeah, I don't mind it at all. No

03:10Kind of the only thing the only bright spot on the horizon currently

03:14Well, and you got to feel like you said you got to feel confident about and I and I've said it just from watching this

03:20Team and in there granted there without Jalen Brown in there without poor zingers. I just don't see who can beat him in a seven-game series. I

03:28Just don't see anybody that can beat him

03:30this is

03:32Tariq hey Tariq

03:34Yeah, good morning everybody

03:37I just kind of wanted to I wanted to circle back you guys are talking about

03:41The mystery behind who banned Kendrick Perkins from the garden?

03:45Yes, and then I thought about it right was a mystery when we tried to figure out who deflated the balls

03:49There's a mist up, you know, we it's it's usually a person that's in personnel

03:56Somewhere in the staff of the facility that is in charge of inviting people back

04:01Like who is the guy at the Red Sox who did all those wonderful?

04:04Events for players returning dream team, like, you know all-time teams things like that. What was his name the dentist? Dr. Charles

04:12Dr. Charles Steinberg. Dr. Charles. So so so I am I'm putting

04:17foldable money

04:18That the equivalent of that at the garden is the person who basically didn't extend any credentials to Kendrick

04:25and then when that work gets out and it's a little joke chuckle chuckle and then the world starts swirling around the facility that

04:31Oh, he's banned and he's not some guy just said, you know what?

04:33He called Joe Missoula bird that flies backwards and that's not a basketball breakdown. You know what no soup for you end of day, right?

04:40That's it. That's what did him in is when he basically said take out Missoula's brain and put it in a bird

04:46Can and can I add about that?

04:48You know

04:49Good for you Kendrick because you were going to be the next guy laid off by espn and you took a chance

04:55By basically ruining your legacy here so that you can get I don't know what three hundred thousand dollars from espn

05:00Great for you, bro. Enjoy your day. Have you know, good luck

05:05But that's what you did you trade a lifetime of legacy ray allen realized the mistake and fixed it real quick, right?

05:12Well, there we go, he's gonna he's gonna he's gonna realize that he's he's

05:17It was more valuable to be

05:19Like, you know humane towards the celtics and not just use them as a poster child to extend his career

05:24well, then why did Joe Missoula feel the need to reach out and and

05:30Extend the offer to break bread with Kendrick that I you know, that's maybe he's like, you know, Missoula's

05:36You know, we know he's evolved as a person in a different way

05:39Maybe he's like listen, I want to I want to sit down and talk to you on what you're really trying to say

05:44About you know, but I still didn't want you in the building a week ago that that comment

05:48Like it's evolving is one thing. He's probably gonna walk. He's gonna have the bread on the table

05:52He's gonna walk in there and then drop kick him into the into the uh lobby or not even show up

05:58But it's one thing to be critical of the team and say, all right

06:02Missoula's got to do better. Missoula's got to do this, but when you start taking shots, you know, we all do it

06:07When you start saying hey, listen this guy you put his brain in a bird

06:11He's flying backwards and basically he's stupid

06:15Then those you know guys don't forget about that stuff

06:18And then they say like Missoula probably has enough power to say. All right, you know, I don't want somebody like that around

06:25celebrating

06:26our success

06:28And but I still want to have a conversation with him face to face. Yeah, maybe he just wants to do that

06:33I well when there was this the story was in the us version of the sun the the english tabloid

06:42and the the source

06:44Who works in the organization?

06:46told steve brenner and david scott quote

06:50He was asking everyone to get a spot at td garden

06:54To be there for this moment of history

06:57And to try to soften up the relationship that is broken

07:02And of course perk says that none of that is true

07:05uh, the uh, there was a player an unnamed player

07:10who said

07:12That the on the current roster who said the hatchet won't be buried anytime soon

07:18And the respect for him is below zero

07:21since those comments

07:23And most of us don't even want to hear about him as he said things that were just not justified and that were bad

07:30throwing us in our faces

07:34disrespecting our work

07:35and the whole organization

07:38So, I mean didn't he?

07:39Wasn't he big at criticizing?

07:42Tatum. Yeah a ton

07:44So and I don't know if tatum's that type of dude. It doesn't look like that

07:48Tatum responded it was like perk went off on him

07:51and then the next game tatum went off and it was like he was he was shutting him up with what he did on the

07:56court

07:56and I bet it was probably somebody one of tatum's teammates because that's not really his mo and I could see how

08:02certain guys in the locker room would come to his defense and being like

08:06Yo, this dude is a clown and this that and the other no one wants him in the building. No one likes him

08:11just kind of like

08:13Being there because that's maybe that's not like tatum's more of a high road guy

08:17Where he won't kind of say those things and I can see that

08:21Rhode island texter. Hello, rhode island. Thank you for listening to this show down there and supporting us since

08:26jump

08:27Cool cup of joe is too classy to hold a grudge. It must be somebody else

08:32Joe, missoula doesn't hold a grudge. Yeah, are you smoking?

08:36I would say I would say clap back. Joe just said he wanted to bring back fighting. Yeah, I would think they'd never hear the stuff

08:42he had with uh

08:44with the reporters like

08:46Have the ability to have an analytical eye for a second of your own team brought back an article from like seven years ago

08:52Yeah, I mean ask washburn if he holds a girl. Yeah, I think that's why we love clap back. Joe holds grudges. It's endearing

08:58Yeah, like and the other thing is

09:01The thing that's frustrating is perk wins whenever we're doing this

09:05Like the existence of a beef has whatever the stupid seven millionth basketball podcast he's on

09:11Gets attention and then we talk about his return when tonight from my view

09:15Is all about a guy in tatum who yes, he does silence people, but he's not a guy that runs toward conflict

09:22Like that's a jalen brown quality that I don't think tatum possesses, but I think tonight jalen's out

09:28I I agree with courtney. I think he puts up huge numbers

09:31It's going to be a really fun environment and I don't give a damn of perks there

09:35But I like that about jason tatum like he doesn't he does his talking on the court, right?

09:40I like that kind of it's not who he is if you watch the starting five, which is

09:44You know, which I really enjoy you love that show

09:47yeah, because it they sit down and they really get into the minds of these guys and how they talk and and that will

09:54That was so big for tatum the last episode when they won the championship. He kept saying

10:00I wonder what they're gonna say now. What are they gonna say now? So that's kind of his way of

10:06Getting everybody to or shutting everybody up where anthony edwards if you look at him, he's completely different

10:13He's like I want all the smoke in his I think i'm the best player in the league and his personality is different

10:19And it's interesting to see that. Um, I speaking of netflix and and related things. Why do we have to wait for april?

10:28for that celtics produced

10:30Drama on the season last year because the red socks will suck and it'll give us something to watch

10:36I think it's such a miss by netflix like turn that around really quick because by april it's

10:42You're you're must be the celtics that the celtics must have a say in when it and it'll get you geared up

10:47Just for another playoff run

10:50Yeah

10:51Yeah, that's true. And who knows? I mean, what's the april netflix?

10:57you know

10:58Season ratings look, is that a slow period of time? No netflix doesn't matter people consume content immediately

11:04No, no, no, but i'm saying do people consume more content in april versus when I think right now

11:10I think right now is when people consume the most content
