Hi John.. Thank you got your dedication to locked on Celtic’s keeping us informed..
Hello John no time no see I am still watching the podcast even if I don't comment I'm still here just letting you know that I am still around ☘️☘️
Bonus pod🎉👍👍👍
John coming through for us💚
Thank you for making my day. Awesome to hear you live on your 98.5 appearance.
So I guess it is around game 3-5 ECF return. That’s ok. It’s the Finals we need him for.
It’s been great watching your channel grow since the kp trade happened. We just need him for the finals he will be good. No need to risk it
He was walking normally at practice today
Luckily it was a grade 1 or mild right soleus strain which is more manageable. The only thing now is how his calf will react positively on the treatment and rehabilation process.
Well John, God-Willing this'll be the LAST time KP gets injured this season.
We knew coming in that 7 foot 3 guys are highly susceptible to injury seemingly everywhere from the hips down, yet Boston Medical kicked freaking ass in my opinion – pardon my French – by keeping KP in all but 25 games this season, which was like EXACTLY what Brad expected by the way, so I'm not in the least concern that that trend will continue.
We'll be fine anyway, even without KP I truly believe, but it'd be a MUCH easier road with "The Original Unicorn" on the floor.
🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀 still = 18
No matter who's in the game!
Well I don’t think Cs can beat Knick’s in ECF. without KP…… so I’m not sure where the good news are here if he won’t be available for the ECF finals
Hey John i wanted to get your thoughts based on next round matchup and the bench. I feel if we play the cavs Luke should get most of the minutes but if Orlando I feel Tilman matches up better. What do you think?
Glad 😀 to hear KP was doing good back to line up hopefully he is 💯recovery
Hi John. Your last name 'Karalis' is as latvian as it can possibly be..
Fairly new subscriber and I’m sure I’ll memorize this intro song very soon. Catch myself saying it at work randomly 😅
Y'all what happened to the old intro song? That one was way better.
Thanks for the extra podcast John! We appreciate you!!
Awesome to get an update Thank You! Also please never have that child, David Ramil, back on your show. The crap he said about the fans after game 4 was completely immature and uncalled for. Wes seems fine.
I was actually hoping someone did a special podcast today after the KP interview and you just made my day!
