The Celtics are Gonna be Okay (...and so is Jordan Walsh)
The Boston Celtics are going to be okay, folks. In an incredible response to their first two-game losing streak of the season, they bounced back with an undermanned squad, blowing out the Indiana Pacers by nearly 40 points. Jaylen Brown reminded us of his physical dominance over the rest of the league, while Payton Pritchard bounced back from a mini-slump.
On this pod, we cover why fans should not be concerned (yet), why back-to-back championships are historically improbable, and why it's finally time for Jordan Walsh to be given consistent playing time.

Bucks Preview, and the "vibe-iest" moments from the Pistons game
The Boston Celtics made a meaningless mid-March regular season game ridiculously fun by playing an almost unfair level of team defense against a struggling Detroit Pistons. Come and hang out as we rank the "vibe-iest" moment from a game that was way more enjoyable than it should have been.
Whether it's Derrick White's triple-double, Jaylen Brown's masterclass, or even the Jaylen look-alike in the crowd. There's a lot to love from this one.
We also preview tomorrow's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks, and discuss Lebron James' comments on Jayson Tatum on the new Lebron/JJ Reddick pod.

The Celtics could have been forgiven for losing their first game after a long west coast road trip and the continued absence of their starting center, Kristaps Porzingis.

Why has the media narrative shifted away from the Celtics?
The Boston Celtics had a successful road trip out west, but the narrative has shifted since the loss to Denver. Are the Celtics still the most likely team to win the title this year? What has changed? Meanwhile, the Celtics have won 3 and remain an incredibly entertaining juggernaut, so why are some pundits shifting toward the Milwaukee Bucks as the top team in the East?
Plus, is Derrick White back.. again? Is it time to rest Jayson Tatum? Is Luke Kornet really this good? Come and hang out, there's plenty to talk about.
Finally, Mike Gorman's comments on Grant Williams, Jaylen's tweet-liking has Celtics Twitter in shambles, and are we worried about KP's current absence?

However, Jayson Tatum has looked a little shakey the past few games. What's going on there? Meanwhile, Jaylen Brown has been dominating the opposition since the all-star break, and Luke Kornet is likely getting drug tested after playing out of his mind to beat Kevin Durant and the Suns.

A Jordan Walsh debut. Luke Kornet forming a band with his teammates. All of this and a (relatively) decisive win over the Spurs. The vibes are ridiculously high and the mood around the Celtics fanbase couldn't be better as we look towards a marquee matchup against the Denver Nuggets on Friday night.
How did Walshy perform in his debut? Is Luke Kornet's stock rising? How can fans and the team stay engaged as the season drags on?
Plus, Pascal Siakam traded to the Pacers, and a spicy edition of the Schadenfreude Report.

The Celtics keep finding ways to win
The Boston Celtics came home from an impressive West Coast road trip and ALMOST lost back-to-back games at home to two of the worst teams in the NBA. The Celtics won both games and continued to demonstrate their new-found ability to win games that we've come to expect them to lose over recent years.
Derrick White and Jaylen Brown were dominant against the Raptors, while there were different heroes in the overtime win against the Pistons.
Who is better at leading their own lineup, Derrick White or Jaylen Brown? Where are we at with the Queta vs Kornet argument now? Why were these games so difficult?

Should Celtics fans be worried about the Dame trade?
Damian Lillard has been traded to the Boston Celtics' Eastern Conference Rival, the Milwaukee Bucks. This is bad, as the Bucks' offense is now significantly better. However, the Portland Trailblazers have made it clear that Jrue Holiday is available for trade. Should the Celtics push their chips in for Jrue? Would it even be worthwhile? On this pod, we run through all the big questions emerging from the Dame trade, with our usual focus on how everything impacts the Celtics.
Plus, we try and predict the biggest storylines to come out of Celtics media day, and get to some other news items from the past week.

The Simplest Explanation for Everything Wrong with the Celtics
Are the Celtics pacing themselves for the playoffs, or is this a legitimate collapse? Is Smart simply recovering from injury, or has he fallen out with Joe Mazzulla? Is the locker room fed up with Grant Williams, or is he limited by an elbow injury? There's a lot wrong with the Celtics right now. Is the simplest explanation the most likely, or as Bill Simmons suggested in a recent tweet, is there something major going on behind the scenes?
