Locked On Celtics - Daily Podcast On The Boston Celtics

The Celtics are riding high after their blowout win over the Golden State Warriors. Shots fell, but a couple of things happened with the lineup, specifically with Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Kristaps Porzingis. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal and Tom Westerholm discuss the win, guys having fun, and the difference between being bored and not having the same energy as the opponents. Also, Joe Mazzulla's tweak to Tatum and Brown's first-quarter minutes might be a sign that he's trying to get more out of Brown. And Porzingis seems to be back to his normal self, which is good news for the whole starting lineup. Your favorite podcast now has a newsletter!
