I think the Kyrie Irving trade's worth the second day, don't you?

0:02.5

Yeah.

0:03.2

It won't be the only thing, though, folks.

0:04.6

We got a lot of other things that I want to get to.

0:06.3

Red Sox primarily.

0:21.1

I want to start getting more into the fight. McGregor Mayweather want to get into that. I hear you guys have some hot lottery takes, so we'll accept those. So all of those things, but I do want to follow up day two,

0:23.2

Isaiah Thomas, Kyrie Irving.

0:24.6

And you can weigh in at 617.

0:23.2

You can weigh it. So all of those things, but I do want to follow up, day two, Isaiah Thomas, Kyrie Irving.

0:24.5

And you can weigh in at 617.

0:25.6

You can weigh in on whatever you want.

617-779-0-98-5.

0:30.1

We don't have Dan the angry call screener today.

0:31.0

I think it's B-Rob back there.

0:32.3

He will be.

0:34.1

So you're not going to have any. No, I'm screening calls.

0:35.7

Okay, so it's Jay Stu. Either way, that's not, you know...

0:39.3

You won't get the anal scope that you've been getting the last couple days.

0:42.3

More of a love tip. With Danny Angry Call screener, although Jimmy does have his days. Day 2, you have any follow-up thoughts more? You have any developing opinions on it? Well, I think the more you look at this, I think one of the reasons that Danny Ains made the move is that he looked at Kyrie Irving.

0:54.6

It's a guy who's truly shown his worth in the playoffs.

0:57.4

That's when he's been at his best, and that's what he was thinking about when he traded about when he traded for him. And the Bridges last year proved that they weren't even close to the Cavaliers. And now you have Hayward for Crowder, Kyrie for IT. You still have Al Horford, Marcus Marte, Terry Rozier, Jalen Brown, Jason Tatum, and they're going to be getting more minutes. So they also get Marcus Morris, too. Like, overall, I just like the roster. And not only am I just going to enjoy it more because they're going to be more fun to watch, and Kyrie Irving's a real-deal superstar, and that just from a, I don't know, just from a small level is just going to excite me. What the hell is that noise? That's ocean sound? Either way. I think that they have a legit shot to give Cleveland, like, a real fight in the Eastern Conference Finals rather than last year being a complete waste of time, and they're still young enough that the build will continue as well. I just like reading the, you know, there are two sides to it, which again, I said yesterday, which is what I like about it, we've been asking for Danny to, you know, pooper get off the pot and make a real trade where he assumes some risk, you know, instead of just trying to pound everybody into submission. So he made one. I'm glad he did. but I like reading the pros and cons because there's some cons to the deal. I do feel like there's more cons over the last 24 hours,

2:04.5

like more people have really started to get real nitpicky with this thing. Well, it's not that. I think nationally, I think if you don't have a dog in the fight, I think you'll look at it and say the Celtics may have overpaid. I mean, there's a lot of neutral observers who don't have,
