Summary

WEEI presents a collection of discussions surrounding the Celtics after a wild week. Hear from Jones & Keefe, The Greg Hill Show, and Rich & Ken with Ted Johnson as they react to Joe Mazzulla winning Coach of the Year after calling it a "stupid award". They debate whether this gives him ultimate job security or puts a massive target on his back. Plus, a deep dive into the mounting speculation that the Houston Rockets have "significant interest" in trading for Jaylen Brown. Does Jaylen secretly want out of Jayson Tatum's shadow? Would a package around Alperen Sengun ever be enough for Brad Stevens to pull the trigger? That and more on this week's Best Of Celtics on WEEI!

0:00.0	It is Rich shirt and leave Ken Laird, three-time Super Bowl champion Ted Johnson. You can call us at 617-779-9-37, just like Justin on line one. Justin, what's happening to my man?
0:11.7	Hey, gentlemen. Normally I call to rant and rave about how bad Craig Breslo is at his job, but I'm kind of apathetic at this point. So I wanted to ask you guys a question.
0:22.9	I have genuinely do not know the answer to.
0:25.7	So this team is really, really, really bad.
0:28.9	We don't need to go through the metrics.

0:36.8	And the question is really simple.

0:46.3	And this season, he started to become a Red Sox fan.
0:50.1	So I'm concerned.
0:52.9	Do I bring him to Fenway Park, which is a magical place. It's truly a magical place when it's rocking, right?

If you do show up, there will possibly indeed still be a rash of half-naked men in the outfield unless that trend dies this week, which it could. Yeah, I mean, it can't get. There's nothing that can't get worse. But in this way, it's really bad right now, and it's still fun going to the games.
