Well , ho ho ho , coach , and a very merry Christmas to you . I hope you enjoyed your long winter snap , but it's over , man . It's over Time to wake up to this beautiful Christmas day . Nba , how you doing , man ?
What's up , baby ? How are we doing ? I'm doing good .
This is going to be an amazing day . This is a new first for J2M's first or even get there . Merry Christmas to you , coach . Merry Christmas on Christmas Day . Here we are , man NBA on Christmas Day . Of course , just too much have to be here . And not only are we here , we are here for our first live pod Boom .
Live pod , live like the games being played , lives . It's not actually live us , but we will get to that one .
No , you're going to hear this probably the day after Christmas or knowing how busy you folks are out there with your families and everything else , maybe not until midweek , but you'll have fun listening because you're going to hear the highlights of J2M's watching the Lakers Celtics real time . We had to do this . Here .
We are talking basketball these years and never doing it live . Come on , man . So , speaking of live , the game hasn't even started yet . So as we're talking right now , we've probably got about five minutes or so . Well , no one . The way it is with the network is probably 15 minutes before the Celtics Lakers start , so we got a game going on right now .
I'm watching live Denver Golden State .
Yep Warriors Nuggets .
And it's not over , it's pretty much over .
Too many Nuggets . Got them in Denver Christmas Day .
Oh , curry with a bomb . It's not over , dude , it's 114 Denver , 110 Golden State . With almost two minutes left , this ain't over . Oh , and we saw that we might as well get right into it . Because , yeah , we're excited because , as Celtics fans , this has been the West Coast road trip , for the green Didn't start off so good .
Podcast Paul wasn't happy because they were playing these Golden State Warriors who I think , stink . But I'll tell you what , man if you keep these guys close at the end of a game , golden State and you don't stick at your foot in their neck and knock them out , they're going to win . And Denver's holding them too close here , man .
Yeah , we've always had trouble with Golden State and with the heat , but , curry being curry , last game we were up 17 . Defense fell apart , no big deal , just signs of the old Celtics , which they aren't at all anymore , not even worried about it at all . They're 10th in the West 15 and 14 . They probably won't even make the playoffs .
So , as a minute left , I think that Denver's got this one . And yeah , man , but I'm close first we got podcast P , here we're here man Pacific P . Pacific P I got crypto P . Look at that in a second .
I got my Celtics Christmas jammies on . I got a lot of green going on , and that's what's great about this pod too . It's cozy . It's a Christmas cozy special . I'm feeling so warm inside .
I haven't looked at the lineups for the Celtics , though , because the one thing I wanted to be on this holiday was a little zingy inside , and I don't know if that's happening .
Yeah , it's calf .
I don't think they're going to play him . Let's see , let's get the update , man , real time baby .
We've got the lineup for today . They're saying it's going to be holiday , white brown , tatum and poor Zingus . They're saying he's playing , he's playing .
That's what they're saying . Of course he's playing Another Christmas miracle . First you have J2M's doing a live pod , now you got poor Zingus playing and , by the way , all the folks out there I know you're listening to this . It's not Christmas anymore , but Christmas continues . The holidays are here . It goes through New Year's . You've heard our passion .
You know how excited we are for basketball , so to be able to see the coach and I react real time to a game , you know you've been waiting for this . So just buckle up , get your hot cocoa . You're cozy and joy .
Let's go . Yeah , they're saying . Yeah , they're saying he's going to start . So true holiday . Derek White , janneth Brown , jason Tatum , kp , mr Zingus himself . No Zing , no ring .
So so far , what is it about ? There are four games today or five for the NBA and Christmas day .
I think there was four . Let me go back to that .
Because we're about midday right now . Which ?
is probably . There's five games .
Five games . So the first one was Bucks Nix . Did you watch that one coach ?
I watched some of it , yep .
That . Look , I got a bold disclosure . I missed that one .
Lost 122 to 129 to the Nix . Amazing game Like another one . I feel like Bronson's gone to another level . Jalen Bronson this year he scored 38 points , six assists , four rebounds . Julius Randall he's always killing it too . He had 24 . Rj Barrett had 21 . And quickly had 20 . Part 10 , they had a great .
The Joker puts the nail in the coffin .
Sorry to interrupt . No , that's it .
Yep .
Denver's going crazy , the Joker coming down for the dunk ?
Yeah , that's it .
They got that one .
Yeah , that game's over .
That's over . Denver's got that one .
So this is a second game , this one right here , golden State Denver's a second game . Yeah , this is a second game , the first game was just the . Nix , so the Nix looked good .
Huh , if they shot 54% from the field , they're not as good from the three-point land , but they're . What else did they do ? They out-rebounded them . Actually , they didn't on the defensive boards , they did , but that's just a good win . Right there , I told you , the Nix are a little feisty .
Huh , You're feeling Nix , huh .
I said that in the beginning , since we started their dark horse this year .
Where are they right now ? They ?
were 17 and 2 . So , yeah , big win . And the Bucks had a big game . They all played well , greek and Dane , both at 32 . Middleton had a good game , so that's a big win .
Well , what's interesting with this day and you and I texted about this the other day and I know you're feeling the same way based on that text is in the East . I really do feel like it's the Celtics , bucks and Sixers and then everybody else .
Yep , but the Mighty Magic are right there . The Nix are fifth , so the Magic are fourth . I understand .
But you have the Bucks , the Celtics and the Sixers Basically tied , and then everybody else is like five and a half or six games behind , right . Yeah , it's five games after that for everybody oh look at this Nuggets with a five-game win streak , they're longest of the year .
Yeah .
Just saw that graphic . So that's , they're starting to heat up . And hey , what did we talk about last time on this pod ?
You know , actually last time we were in the pod and we'll get into this it was in season , tournament time still , and we're all fired up about that and we got excited about it because the NBA made something important in the beginning of the year .
But we said that Christmas is really the unofficial beginning of the NBA season and you're seeing it with the Nugs man starting to heat up when it matters .
Yeah , but I told you about the Clippers that they're coming together . They have a high IQ on that team and they're starting to play better . You see in the numbers there , hard and playing better . They're fifth in the West . I call this here's a little prediction , pod moment .
All right , the Grizzlies since Jaws back , they're three and O they're gonna be their 13th in the West right now . I predict by the spring , by March , they're gonna be fifth in the West .
Oh , there he goes . He's throwing one out there .
Yep , memphis is behind the ranks in the West . Not gonna be any corrections there , right ? No , they're with Jaws . They're the whole different ball team .
so All right . So before this game starts and I just kinda hit on it we gotta go there Cause we're waiting on the Celtics Lakers right now . But last time we were on this pod it was right before the final of the in season tournament against the Pacers and the Lakers , and not only did I call the Lakers winning it , I called the TikTok dance .
That happened . Oh major predictions . The TikTok dance actually happened . I said smoke a cigar , he's also drinking champagne . It was like they won the championship and I was joking about them unfurling a banner for this . They did , Although . Did you hear Shaq recently on a podcast ?
No , what are you ?
saying he doesn't call it a banner , he calls it a . What did he call it ? He called it like an emboldened or something . I forget the word flag . It's a flag . It's not a banner . It's a flag . That's what it is .
Yeah , paul called all of that . It was amazing . You go back to our podcast . He called the Pacers and Lakers , the Lakers winning doing the TikTok dance and everything you were joking around . It all happened even then in the banner . You were joking about them having a banner . Can we do ?
a live prediction , cause usually we do the predictions and then we go back like a month and listen , I wanna do it before the game starts . They are definitely before this game gonna highlight the banner . We're gonna see highlights of the banner . They will be talking about that today . That is my prediction .
And listen , here's the thing , cause I was talking to a Lakers fan recently . Nice guy , I don't mean to pick on the Laker fans , I really don't , cause I do believe that they didn't really have a choice in the matter . We all know the clip a Kobe says we don't hang . You know Pacific conference titles we only hang banners , right .
And how they're making fun of the Lakers . You know hanging this as a banner . It wasn't their choice . The commissioner , adam Silver , wanted you know this is his baby the NC's in tournament . He wants to play it up . But it does remind me or get me to think , and maybe this is a little sour grapes , cause we wanted to cup it a ring .
Cup it a ring , but can you imagine how much flak the Celtics would be getting right now for raising a banner ?
Oh , you wouldn't be allowed . We don't allow that in Boston .
So in a way , I'm glad that we didn't win . For that reason , these guys have enough pressure
¶ Christmas Day Game Excitement and Predictions
.
I just I praise the bra oh here it is , here we go .
They're hyping it up the time everybody's been waiting for . Merry Christmas , everybody . I know you woke up , you opened your presents , you know , maybe you took a little nap because now you're ready . For what Christmas is all about ? This game , yeah , this five games . No , no , no , no , no . The King versus what does Tatum called JT ?
Yeah , I guess he doesn't have to have us All . Right , nice , we can't call him the kid cause we did that for Haliburton . But here we go . How many seconds , how many minutes before they show the banner ? Here we go Showing a little La La Land , little . Oh , here's some Celtics fans Bleed green Laker fans , come on , show the banner .
This is the 100th meeting for LeBron James versus the Celtics . Ooh .
Oh , we got Doc . Oh , they're all there , little Doc and Mike Breen Bam .
Yeah , we're live here . The game's live .
We got Dot , oh Doris .
So people are there . Yep , this is , like I said , the 100th meeting versus LeBron James against the Celtics man . Here we go , so we'll watch a little bit of it and then we'll come back in the fourth , maybe at the end of the fourth . Is that what we want to do ? What's ?
the plan here .
Yeah , that's the plan .
You want to watch first quarter and then duck out and come back for the fourth .
Yeah , we'll come back and finish it up for the fourth .
Well , here it is the graphic the Jays baby Points per . Oh , I missed it , but they're both like way up in the 20s for points per game . Nothing's changed there .
They're going to do well tonight . This is going to be a good game .
You just said it's his 18th Christmas day , the . King LeBron's at all I think my prediction's not going to go down . They're not showing that banner . Ooh , he had a season high 40 points against OKC .
Yep , he had 40 points .
Oh , here comes the chalk , here comes the LeBron chalk , here he goes . Oh boy , oh the king , oh boy , oh no , the game's starting man . And there he is the . Zing Zing . All right , say it again , we got Holiday . Derek White , jalen Brown , tatum and Boy Zingas .
No Zing , no ring and the Lakers .
what do you got ? You're going to show your starting five LeBron , cam Reddish get out of here . Tarane , prince Anthony Davis and Jared Vanderbilt who is that ? Where's Russell ?
Yeah , I know he's not starting .
All right , what's your prediction of this game ? Green by 30? .
Green machine . That's the prediction we win . Is it going to be close ? It will be a close game .
Well , okay , so here's the thing , folks . There's one thing oh , Jalen Brown comes out firing . There's one thing that the coach looks for throughout the game , actually two things turnovers and rebounds . That's what he's going to keep his eye on .
Correct , oh , we do . We do if we under 10 , it's the single digit rule like 10 and under . If we get 10 under and under , Zing for three .
That's the thing , though , man like as much as they were blowing out the last two games right . So they lost to Golden State . They lost , and then they killed the Kings and the Clippers . You know why ? Because they were hitting their threes . Oh , jalen Brown is looking good .
All these snatchers is dunking off . Actually , he's been the guy he's been dunking .
He's been the guy lately , right , he's always the guy .
He's strong man , just going to the rim and dunking on everybody . This year it's been great . It's been playing shooting well , the whole team's playing great man .
Oh , he just stripped AD . Oh , AD gets it back . How ?
about .
Derrick Whitey . Let's talk a little AD real quick . Little Anthony Davis because that was the other thing I said in the last pod was the only reason I'm dissing on the Lakers is everybody's saying they're going to be great and Anthony Davis gets hurt all the time . And he was a monster in that final against Indiana . He put up what 40 points like 20 boards .
It was just crazy stats , but that was it . He hasn't put up those stats since that game . And guess what ? That was just the recipe that the Lakers gave to play Indiana , because they've been torched since then by every big man . So nothing against Anthony Davis , but our defense is looking good . I know it's early Holiday for three . Bang , let's go .
Is it a timeout yet ? Lakers , you better call one soon . Oh , can we talk about coach ?
Joe .
Can we ? Can we put to bed the timeouts now ?
Yeah , exactly .
I get a lot of tweets and texts about that . Oh , coach Joe , look at , you did another timeout , another timely timeout . It's like , yeah , it's his second year . Calm down , coach Joe . Jalen Brown for three bang . He has not missed . He has not missed and he got fouled . Four point play .
Wow , awesome .
Dude , he has not missed a shot . Jalen Brown is opened up his Christmas presents today . Man .
Yeah , they look good this is a strong team . We have them all day .
I'm going to probably make some hot chocolate a little bit here , yeah , a little bit more cozy , yeah a little bit more cozy .
Turn to the fire . Yeah , of course we're looking for this game .
Who is not enjoying their Christmas right now ?
We'll come back in the end of the end of
¶ NBA Games and Team Performance Discussion
the .
So while we get a little pause here though , I wanted to talk about the other games . So I just saw that Jimmy Butler is not showing up for Christmas Day . He had a little coal in his stocking , but we got 76ers heat after this . I don't know . I don't know , ted , we'll see .
We know , jimmy Butler , I don't know if you're beating those 76ers , and then the late game is Maverick's sons . But is that another news flash ? Sun stink .
No .
No All right .
They haven't had Bradley Beal the whole year . He's had that back spine injury , so he's , once they're healthy . D Booker's out of his mind right now . Kd , what is one of the top scores in the league right now . They're both strong , they're both 14 and 14 , but they're going to be fine . They're going to make it a playoffs .
Well , the heat have this rookie . Captain Morgan , captain's Morgan or whatever , the pirate guy .
Yeah , he's one of the rookie of the year .
I mean he's on his my chat , home bird , home grand , no one's chat , but he's right there , man .
So the salt is up 12 zero against the Lakers . Right now we're looking good , you know . Merry Christmas everybody . I guess we'll just come back in the fourth , I mean we can talk a little bit .
No , no , no , no , we're watching the first quarter dude , we're watching the whole first quarter . Yeah , yeah , then we'll come back , we're staying here , folks Just talking . There's going to be some . We're going to see how many shots in a row Jaylen Brown can hit . Come on , man , he hasn't even turned the ball over yet .
We will .
We'll stay here . It's zero turnovers . There's only been a minute left in or a minute gone in the game , but we'll take it . Yeah , it's been a good week for the green . I'm proud of them because they are on track right now to have . I don't even think the 2008 Celtics at home had a better home record this far in the season .
Right , I mean , I know it's still early , but we had a great record last year at the beginning of season two .
But at home 14-0 ?
Oh no , no , no , that's what I'm talking about . We haven't lost since last year . It's actually like they haven't lost since March last year , so we're really like 21-0 or something we haven't lost at home since last March .
Let's hit on the point you just made though .
Yeah .
Because I did hear that stat earlier before . They were 21-6 , right , where they were just playing well , were happy with the zing , all this stuff , and so they're better than last year . And then some are reminding me that their record last year was 21-6 .
It was the same as last year and I was like , oh , but here's the difference , coach , here's the difference . Just one week ago almost because it was a Monday night game against Golden State , right , was it ? This past Monday ?
They played , so last year when they were 21-6 or around that record , that's when they went out West as well and they played Golden State . But here was the difference Last year they lost to Golden State , kind of like they did this year , but then they lost their next four out of five .
It totally hopped their balloon dude Took the air out of them , and that's why I was so upset when they lost . I'm like here we go again . Is what I was thinking Wrong ? Because so far since they've lost , they're not happy about that . And they steamrolled the Kings who were playing good , they steamrolled the Clippers , your Clippers , and now so far .
No , it's early Christmas day , but they're looking good here . So that's where I'm excited . Is that ? I'm okay if they have a bad loss , if they come back and win the next three or four . They didn't do that last year .
Last year . They're a completely different team and identity . With Drew and Zing we're completely different .
Yep , oh , look at the Jalen Brown Zing connection . It's amazing . Look at that . Pass to the Zing from Jalen Brown . They love each other .
So we're looking good , man . This is a championship team .
Oh , look at this , they also have the Christmas look . They have the Christmas look , True holidays . We're in the red bandana with the green and the white , and so is Zing Zing's wearing the just like I don't know what is that ? An elbow pad , what do you call that ? Or an armband ? Anyway , they got the Christmas look .
A sleeve baby , a sleeve . Thanks , man . We big shout out to our bench with Sam and Peyton and Luke and Brissette and a Delano Bantanton . So we haven't seen much from Slee . Lamar Stevens got some time in there he's out . Jd Davidson .
Oh , the king can't finish .
We've had a great bench , like this new kid , drew Peterson got some time the other last game , but we have Jordan Walsh when he gets called up and played . We have a solid , solid bench . Man Peyton's been playing real well .
Jalen Brown missed . Oh , turns out he's not going to make every shot today . Oh , the king goes coast to coast . All right , let's turn it into more of a game . That's okay , oh , 14 .
Well before .
So we get about seven minutes or so left in this first quarter in feeling cozy , feeling just very merry . It's Christmas and I'm waiting . I'm waiting for my big Christmas gift . What is ?
that ? What do you want ? A quiz , a quiz ? You want a quiz , a live quiz . Well , a Christmas quiz . It's the very , very J2M's Christmas quiz

You said the first , I don't know what I was thinking . Yeah , I got a shack , crazy there .
36 rebounds 1961 versus the Knicks .
And , by the way , my prediction of them making a big deal about that ban , or they didn't show it once , so I have to do a correction .
My first correction Don't show it at halftime , I bet oh yeah , yeah , yeah , don't correct yourself yet .
No , we'll come back in the fourth to see if it happens .
Last , question's perfect for the first quarter All right . Nba teams that play on Christmas Day have never been allowed to add festive seasonal adjustments to the uniforms . True or false False ? The correct answer is false False .
Well done on this quiz , paul oh man , I'm going to get such a nice cup of cocoa , lots of whipped cream , extra whipped cream . I deserve it .
So I'm nice and cozy for the fourth quarter .
I'm going to come in . Come in for the fourth . Looking good man .
Awesome .
We got about under a minute left and then we'll sign off and come back to watch our green finish this thing out , man . But right now , 11 point lead . Oh , sam , he's not feeling it yet . It's OK , big L , uh-oh Finish . See my big thing . With just any team , you got to finish the quarter . Dude , they're not finishing the quarter right now it's our bench .
Yeah , 9-0 run right now by the Lakers in the last two and a half minutes .
I mean , look at that , I like this quater . It has presence in the paint . He's big man , it's good .
Oh boy . It's all good in LA , richard for three Nope , not a good end to the quarter , that's OK . All right , let's finish it up here , wrap it up , hold on , hold on , no , ok , yeah , hey , we're on the road . Good first quarter .
Real quick . Before we wrap it up , give me the stat .
So your favorite stat how many turnovers ?
Only two .
All right .
Yep Stats and rebounds . I mean the stats and rebounds . Turnovers and rebounds are my favorite statistics and we're looking good with just two turnovers and they have us on rebounds . They're 12 and we have nine , so that's it All right man , we're going to sign off for a little bit . We'll see you guys at the end of the fourth .
We'll be in for the fourth , taking you home , and we'll chat then , man .
Little sound effect for our . Something , something cool for our oh yeah , it's always cool . Our reentry into the fourth . All right people , all right folks . See you in a little bit yeah .
All right , coach , we are back on our Christmas Day special . We left each other . After the first quarter I was feeling all cozy and comfy and all of a sudden I wasn't cozy anymore , man . Second quarter wasn't so good . After we get off the pod , man , it made me a little nervous . But here we are , heading into the fourth .
We had a better third quarter right Up by nine points Back to what we were talking about a lot when we were last on in the first quarter turnovers , they only got five . They had two after the first quarter . Going into the fourth , they only have five . We love that number . How about rebounds ? How are we doing with rebounds , coach ?
It's 37 , 34 . They got us by three , but they were up 10 . That was the only factor , so we slid the margin there .
All right , and back to me hating on the Lakers . Only reason I do that is because Anthony Davis doesn't show up in big games . Well , I call Christmas Day a big game . He's shown up , so golf clap for you , anthony Davis . You're looking good so far , but this game is not over . We're in the fourth quarter . Folks , that's right .
You're watching a Christmas Day matinee special with podcast Paul Coach , murph , celtics Lakers going into the fourth quarter . It's a close one and you're going to see our reaction live . Does it get any better than a Christmas gift like this for our J2M fans ?
No , I think not , they'll be hearing our reactions , they'll see our reactions one day soon , because , like I say , these aren't radio .
These aren't radio faces .
These faces are for TV .
I've been talking about how we're doing a live pod of people that are like it's great , a live stream , right . I'm like I don't know how to do that , so it's live for me , but whatever .
Live stream on Instagram . I don't know how to do .
Yeah . We'll figure all that out , that's later on , oh man , but hey , all that matters is we're live , you and me , coach , watching this thing . This is real time , our reaction , our passion for the game .
Hey , before we jump in because we know it's going to be a tight fourth and it's all going to be about us getting into this you got to throw another little coach's quiz on me .
Coach's quiz . Let's do it .
Maybe a surprise . Maybe a surprise , oh a little bit later Maybe All right , we'll see , but we had a good Christmas one to start off .
Yeah , we had a Christmas
¶ Discussion of Lakers vs. Celtics Game
. I didn't mean to put you on the spot . You think I have all these quizzes loaded up ready . We just did one , dude .
I did have like five quizzes last time . Well , something might come out of a no-mer .
No , I got something lined up .
Well , we'll see how this game goes , man , I mean , this is I just want to talk about the bench man .
Like I don't hear about the Nuggets bench , but they had 59 minutes , I think . The bench , they had no boards , the bench had no boards . So that's the thing about the Nuggets this year , their bench .
You know what , when I had a little time during half time , I jumped on the Twitter , since I got my computer open here during the game . I don't usually have my computer open during the game , but I went on that . The old Twitter . Ooh , coach Kerr not happy .
Yeah , he's , he's disgusting .
The NBA is disgusting the way the referees ref the games . They don't let you play . He was just complaining and moaning about how the reps buy into the players and they can't play defense , and how there was too many free throws . Oh , there's Jaylen Brown , see . Ok , I do want to mention this going into half time . I much rather this be on TNT than ESPN .
Sorry , steven A and Kendrick Perkins . God , they're annoying Because all they're doing is bitching about the Celtics shooting too many threes . Well , guess what ? The reason why the Lakers are up is they're shooting 50% from three . Welcome to the NBA dude Right Make or miss league . But he was going .
Steven A was going on this whole rant about how the Lakers or the Celtics aren't going to win a championship because they shoot too many threes . Them and everybody else .
Yeah , exactly , yep , there is definitely too many threes shot this and this and this game and this and this league . Let's see how many we got tonight .
We got another . Another runs sung hero on this Christmas day Got a new nickname 35 .
What's that ?
Timely Timeout Joe .
Timely Timeout Joe he's .
Had two Timeout , joe he's had two , two runs by the Lakers being shut down by a timeout from Coach .
Joe . So we shot 35 threes and hit 12 . So it's 34% .
We've seen worse .
A lot . Oh yeah , they had like 63 is one game I'm like all right , we got 11 minutes to go .
We're up by 10 . Oh and , by the way , I talked a lot on the first half of this part about hot cocoa , so I had to go get some , and I'm so glad I did , because a minute I did that I felt so zingy inside and that third quarter was all about poor zingas .
By the way , 24 points , 10 boards , no zing , no ring .
It's all of this oh no , A Jalen Brown turnover .
Sorry , we're waiting for that . So yeah , we got 11 minutes about left . Yeah , I know .

We've moved on . Yeah , it's the first year . I'm happy for a couple of those two-way players that they got , like they got a hundred , they get a half a million a year or something , or there was two or five . They double their salaries From when . That was fun and LeBron made sure all the kids got some money .
All of those guys were trying to get that money yeah .
LeBron was like , don't you worry , it made it exciting as we talk . Oh , todd looking smooth going to the hoop man , he's had a bunch of blocks today Just doing Derek White things . He's potential all star 109.96 .

Which is corrections .
All right . So let's see what we got . Let's let's look at some stats Real time .

Hear about this rookie from the Golden State Warriors , Brandon Pudzimski .
Oh yeah , what about him ?
Pudzimski , he's starter .
I know I watched him on Monday last against the Celtics .
Nobody starts with Kurds of rookie . But he's cool , he's just posted that two years ago at this time he's only getting garbage time . One year ago at this time , I wasn't on any draft boards . Five months ago , all I heard that was I was a bust Star of the year , out of the rotation . Now I'm starting for the best franchise in the NBA .
I don't know about that Best franchise . I swear you know hashtag . If I can do it , you can too . Dream big Like my boy Caden for Granville Saint-Claire right .
Yeah , oh yeah , caden . What's going on with Caden ? They're four and one .
He's doing all these Playing great defense . His numbers on offense aren't where he wants them to be , yeah , but that's okay . Killer defense he played on a D1 . There's , like those eight schools , eight D1 schools after the sky .
He played very well against and so I think they're four and one , they're three and one or four and one in Granville , so they're doing good .
We're getting them on in January , right ?
Yeah , we'll get them on . I want to have a big offensive game before we get them on .
Yeah , he will , but he hasn't broken out , we just put the vibes out just like for Joe , yeah , and I'm watching his games .
They have Granville basketball YouTube so I get to watch the games and so you can see him . You know he's about to break out . You can see the growth that's happening . You get just a new team , brand new . These guys are getting to know each other and they're just starting to gel now , just like any level . Yeah , Take some time .

Trying to take Zing Backs him down , he hits it . Hey , anthony Davis is playing a game man . What does he ? Got now 40 points . He's saying that .

They have to have a complete blow , like complete breakdown . Well , they can't be trading baskets now , so we need to sell as far as the clock can play good deeds . No , no , no , no .
I don't like it when they start playing slow , because then they just don't . No , no , no .
That's the same thing they need to play their games .
They need to play their game . Man Todd to the hoop . Same with the ball . Oh , with the dunk , wow Ding . Poor Zengus .
Poor Zengus 121 , 107 .
Oh , my Christmas is just feeling so much better .
Oh , the great Christmas . It was great already , or great .
Great , oh my God , they're going to show that again . Oh , so LeBron goes up for the three and he didn't know what to do and he just gave the ball to Jaylen Brown . Jaylen Brown took it down . Well , the bronze run out of gas . Dude , that was hilarious .
Zengus only got 16 points .
Yeah , this we just All right . So , man , what a difference . On this West Coast trip and I was trying to say that earlier , I'm going to bring it up again we have a little commercial .
I told you that , so the .
Celtics undefeated at home but not playing so great on the road . So going into this road trip they were at , I think , 500. , Maybe one game over . And then they go to Golden State . Same old D man , and it was the fourth quarter . They just melted down in the fourth quarter dude , yeah , so we already talked about it .
but they went and they played the Kings back-to-back . Right , it was Golden State . Next night was the Kings . They wipe them out . Then they go down to the Clippers , beat them and then we're on our Christmas you know , miracle special here , seeing them just kind of roll the Lakers , but then the Lakers make it again . We gave away an 18-point lead .
That's what we were complaining about . With Golden State we're up by 17 points . We gave away 18 points . You heard the halftime show , you heard Stephen A and them all . Oh , the Celtics , they stink at halftime , right , Because they gave up 18 points .
Well , here's the difference this team is showing up in the second half , showing up in the fourth quarter , and they're making this West Coast trip a trip to remember , because now they're what ? Three or four games over 500 . Going back home on Thursday , dude , they got out rebounded 43 to 41 .
I love that they came back . They were down 10 rebounds . The Lakers had 10 on us . They came back . See , they just played a better third and fourth on the boards and they only had seven turnovers . Man , that's huge . These guys are on the road during the holidays . It's Christmas .
They're on the road and they're playing great . That's a great thing . They're on the road and they're playing great .
Let go of that whole Golden State game . Man I have . It was a bluff I have .
That's what I'm saying In the moment it felt like it was last year again , and how wrong was I .
Wow , nope , oh yeah , yeah , this team , this is it , man .
And dude , you see who we got at home on Thursday , so they have a nice rest After this day . I don't want to get ahead of myself . We're still watching this game Thursday , but after this game they don't play again until Thursday . Yeah , pistons In the garden against the pistons .
Pistons . I know they're bad , poor pistons , and we tend to not play well against teams at like .
Last year Pistol .
That was last year exactly . We lost the pistons last year . Anyway , let's wrap it up , man . That's it . That's a blow to you , no , no , no , I wanted to .
I'm not done .
All the way . No , no , no , no no .
Too much good juju here . Okay , Teams aren't over yet . Okay , let's give it . Let's give it another minute or so . And I do want to talk about the next two games again . I know we hit him on earlier , but obviously we won't be on to talk about them . But you got the 76ers dude . Remember last year we were saying quiet Denver quietly doing their thing .
Maybe the sixes are quietly doing their thing .
That team and B is nothing quiet . He's number one in the league is the scoring Leader man .
So , yeah , that that'll be good , but they're probably gonna roll in that game and then you get the Maverick Suns , but in the in the West is it still a little quiz one more . I'm not looking at anything . My phones off . By the way before you do that , jason Tatum tonight 25 points , seven rebounds , six assists .
