00:00seems like that it's like he never left like it kind of is the adjustment period he's still a
00:08little rusty you could kind of like see the way he's moving a little bit but it seems like he's
00:12never left in the sense of how you know he's facilitating he's rebounding the second game
00:19was a little bit more aggressive when it came to you know being ball dominant see i wouldn't even
00:23say rusty i would say he's just like favoring that that the achilles like i like he's still
00:29making sure and i found myself watching the games like you gasp or you hold your breath every time
00:34you see him come down miss dunk or whatever but yeah it's just like in in if a guy comes
00:39at him
00:40like you as a viewer as a fan are wondering like oh is he good is he good and he
00:45is but i'm sure
00:46mentally for him he has that in the back of his head but i thought he looks great though i
00:51mean
00:51after being out all these games yeah coming back he he actually does like look really really good
00:58like really good and just the way that you know it's a little bit of a clunkiness between jaylen
01:03and jason trying to get the uh you know the rhythm together because you know jaylen kind of stepped
01:08back a little bit early in uh both games and jason was a little bit uh aggressive early in the
01:14games but
01:14i just think that he for him to miss all those times yeah 60 whatever plus games he missed he
01:20looked
01:20really good so for those of us who may have been concerned about what the chemistry is like so far
01:26so far so good it's and he played like 27 small sample size but uh but yes yeah he played
01:3327 minutes
01:34in both games so he's he's obviously playing a lot so so far so good yeah you hit the over
01:39on both of
01:39those yeah except for the first game i had him get the 20 p i had him on an over
01:43but i thought he was
01:44going to get a 20 p yeah but you had him on the over and you hit the overs hit
01:47for both yeah yeah i feel
01:48like the i said this to ken on saturday before he took a better job to do baseball games and
01:54it's
01:54that i feel like the two of them are similar to the steph diggs patriots relationship last year
02:02where jaylen has proven himself that he can be a number one in the nba and should that be elsewhere
02:08they will deal with it then and tatum's coming back he's not going to be himself for a bit but
02:12tatum
02:13and brown are mutually benefiting from a deep playoff run and a potential championship and
02:19then at the conclusion of that they can figure out the rest yeah i think that they'll be able to
02:23at
02:23the very least work well together from now until the end of the season well it's certainly for celtics
02:29fans it's the best possible scenario is you know and and cross your fingers and and hope but it's uh
02:36seems like he's he's recovered he's the they will figure it out he's going to get the minutes he's
02:43going to be okay with that uh jaylen's going to be okay with him being uh co-alpha whatever whatever
02:49it is and it it seems like the best possible scenario now you just need to get vucevic healthy
02:55because he'll be out how long is he out for that's what they're saying a month with a broken uh
02:59that was crazy on friday it's like all right we get taken back and then he goes out right but
03:03does
03:04have stepped up he did a good job but i was impressed with with jaylen i mean jason tatum i
03:09i didn't know what to expect but he came out and like he he does look good in the sense
03:15of like just
03:16getting in his bag and being able to do some of the things you could tell he's still a little
03:21bit like
03:21you know you could tell it's still a little bit like favoring that right leg but i mean shoot he
03:29even
03:29to him at 85 yeah he's still very very good well i have i've i've still favor the left leg
03:37and the
03:37and the puppy gate incident was you know seven eight years ago right can we give credit where
03:41it's due to courtney yeah who had the scoop of the t-shirts on all the jerseys on all the
03:46seats
03:47yes back zero yeah good job great scoop courtney wednesday was also my lead of or thursday was my
03:53lead that friday he would be back after the uncharacteristic loss they had on wednesday
03:57yeah yeah just basketball had not a big deal well i mean we we we only have access to you
04:03for one
04:03more i know right better juice it we're gonna shyme and i were talking about this on on saturday
04:08and we were both just saying these two loling behind closed doors at all the media that are trying to
04:15make something out of nothing calling him his brother my my my my boy like these two like stop the
04:22madness and tatum reposted that just no no no jalen posted it on his actual feed um just like
04:29curtis still remains sus i can see him over there i'm sure and i'm sure a lot of people i
04:33love you
04:34and i i really can't wait to meet your your son but you are why people are forced to give
04:40lame
04:40apologies because they buy anything like like this i said it the first segment they are going to be
04:46fine the remainder of the season it is mutually beneficial for jalen and jason to work together
04:51they're the two seed they're the favorite to get to the nba finals out of the east and then at
04:56the
04:56end of their season whether it's in the first round or after a championship you will be re-evaluating
05:02what jalen is going to do next season because i don't believe next season jalen brown's going to
05:07want to come in and be the robin again i just don't he doesn't have to be the robin well
05:12he said it was
05:13the most fun year of his career why yeah we could keep going back to that but if we want
05:17to but no
05:17no curtis curtis if we're going to do leads about all the negativity and the negative aspects of it
05:22i also think we need to give leads to when they talk positively about each other if you were to
05:26listen to this show and i just shut up and never spoke about jalen brown at all you would think
05:31that
05:31these two actually hate each other and i don't believe that if you want to just keep going of the
05:36fact that they never speak about each other that jalen brown said this was the best season of his
05:40life like yeah he's been doubted since he got drafted here he got booed when he got drafted
05:44here he finally is able to show exactly what he can do give him credit where credit is due now
05:49his
05:49brother is back and it seems like there's no bad blood i don't think everybody's every i don't think
05:55anybody's ever felt like they hate each other there are a lot of people i've always said this i think
06:00they like each other i think that you know they might not hang out with each other and say hey
06:05you know we're always at dinner together that type of thing you think they
06:09coexist yes but jalen's not at dinner with anybody right but that's like right but courtney the point
06:15is you you're you're painting the picture is like we think they hate each other i'm not saying that
06:22that i'm i'm talking about you guys i'm saying that when it comes to the two jays conversation when
06:28that comes up yeah there are a lot of people who try to pin them against each other nobody ever
06:33most people don't think that they can coexist for much longer and i say we are we are spoiled with
06:41riches here like we have two of the most unbelievable nba players who i think behind closed doors look at
06:46the media and laugh yeah i just think you're right and they are two great players and we are spoiled
06:51but there are certain moments when like when linda holiday said it was all the defense on instagram after
06:58the bucks beat the saints when they're hearing bill we were like do bill and tom like each other
07:01that he see his girlfriend ripping brady in this case it was the halftime it was the all-star break
07:06there is no way you could explain that post and say that they're good friends it's just you would
07:12never post that about a good friend of yours when that person was not there this has been my favorite
07:16season so far and you wouldn't say that i think because i heard shaq say this on his podcast big
07:22man paul guys
07:23and i feel like a little shaq impression yeah it was okay next halloween and i feel like shaq would
07:30know better than anybody because he had his time with penny ottaway then he had his time with kobe
07:35bryan but he had d wade on his podcast and one of the things that he talked about he said
07:41you know he
07:42was like what was the first thing i said to you d wade when i got here and i didn't
07:47really know you
07:48the thing he said was this is your team this is your team d wade i'm here to help you
07:56and help you
07:58take you to the next level and help you win a championship but this is your team right when
08:04shaq got traded to miami so i think like the only questions that i always ask is who's willing to
08:13do
08:13that between the jays right whose team is this right now jalen's okay and so jason tatum has to
08:23be okay with that going forward for the rest of this season yes i would say yes but after watching
08:30tatum play you could kind of see he's getting back into the groove at the right but he also knows
08:38that
08:38jalen got them to where they are so right now it's jalen's team off season the two of them can
08:43compete to see whose team it is yeah yeah like they've done every season since they both played
08:48together here all right courtney thank you wiki good morning all right good morning so i'm going to
08:52kind of piggyback off courtney's lead a little bit you know not in the direction of them having friction
08:57or how much they love each other i will say this for the rest of the nba or at least
09:01in the eastern
09:02conference having the jays back is a real problem for everybody you know they were basically beating
09:10the brakes off of cleveland cleveland did make a run at the end of the game because they you know
09:15uh they got a little cold in the second half but having the jays together is going to be a
09:22big problem
09:22and i give a lot of credit to jaylen brown because jaylen has taken his game to the next level
09:28so when both sides of the ball both i mean on both sides and i'll give jason tatum a lot
09:33of credit
09:33because defensively he's kind of you know he stepped in and defense has really been good for
09:40this basketball team that i think they're the number one team when it comes to defensive rating
09:44and you can see jason tatum has jumped in and saying hey listen i'm not gonna kind of like use
09:51defense to kind of just chill out because of the injury and you know try to get my timing back
09:56he's like
09:56you know he's right there for switches he's playing hard defense but i'm saying more so jaylen
10:02on the offensive end because you're starting to see when jaylen if the team's struggling a little
10:07bit and that includes tatum you see jaylen basically taking the the bull by the horns and doing what he's
10:14been doing all year long which is show the rest of the nba that he is an mvp which i
10:20think i mean it's
10:22really down to him and sga and i would lean on giving it to you know not i'm not that
10:29i'm biased
10:29because i bet on him but i just feel like oklahoma city has more talent as she has more talent
10:35around
10:35them than jaylen has but the updated odds i looked this over the weekend wigs he's like sixth yes i
10:40know
10:41it's sga it's kade cunningham it's still the joker webin yama webin yama
