I would love to have Blake back this year…he deserves a Championship ring 💪☘️
Let's go Celtics
Not sure if you will see this. But what do you think the future looks like when players are signing for such high money. What's do contracts look like in 2030?
Lol not sure why it's 6999 😅
☘️💪
I agree that Jaylen will cook Jordan when they match up in training camp, but calling Jordan and end of second round kind of guy isn't really telling the full story of his talent, because his shot is the only reason he became a second round pick, but he's clearly a first round talent
Do you have a key to the facility?? Is that why you do all the pods from there ??
Nice reconnection story with your wife. ❤
John sounds like you got your very own Hallmark movie with your wife. Great to have a little insight into your basketball career as well!
Fun pod. John, you’re easy to like.
The personal stuff was pretty awesome. Congrats again John.
hey karalis shout out to your boys at 88.9 WERS 8pm-12 am for the top notch hiphop music back then
The question is JB worth a max contract. Will he be tradable at 69 mil. He cannot handle the ball, bad knee, worse additude. Doesn’t like Boston or their fans. Let’s trade him for a playmaker that can handle and distribute the ball. Ja or trae or a couple of younger players that with some upside.
Not looking forward to august. 3 days a week😢
Celtics is the most unloyal franchise to its players. For example, Isaiah Thomas and now Marcus Smart. More power to Jaylen. Either get traded and get a supermax elsewhere or get the supermax in Boston with the trade kicker.
We cant ignore woj saying brown does not like Bostons atmosphere.

i think the C's NEED to have zone as a MIX.
John, thanks for the look into your personal life. It is very interesting. Congratulations on your marriage and I hope you and your wife have many years of happiness. Hey, at least you got a chance to play overseas. That right there is an accomplishment in itself playing professionally. Your story is so reminiscent of friends of mine thirty five plus years ago. Decent to good hoops players with solid careers in D2 or D3 programs who got a chance to pursue their dreams overseas.
Celtics playing zone will help them understand miami.
Another great shirt John. Represent RI!
Can’t wait for the season to start.
I understand all that but when luka was eligible, Cuban went to whatever country he's from on the very 1st day with the offer. The celtics f'd this up.
Glad you have 2 loves in your life John.
I’m all for Blake Griffin coming back and that is something coming from me because I hated him until he put a Celtics uniform on lol.🤣💚☘️#18
I’ve been listening to you for years: love your content! Congratulations to everyone… Be happy!
i get 3 podcasts an hour from CLNS Media lol
Pawtucket?
u wouldnt survive on the mean skreets of New Bedford Mass.
Monte Park on Acushnet & Cannon i’ll cross u up big boss! 💪🏽
These taxes are counter productive
Everyone clammering to get rid of All-NBA second teamer Brown while claiming a 2nd round defensive specialist who averaged 7ppg in college is some sort of saviour of the franchise….
What has gotten into the water of this fan base? Its disturbing.
Thank You so much for sharing some of your story. I really enjoyed learning about you.
