Uh, up, up, up, here we go.

This is Felger and Mass.

Yeah, Rex Ryan here. I hate guests. Yep, yep, yep, yep, yeah. There's no reason to touch them. Keep it in your pants. Why would you do, though? Felger and Mass, 985, the Sports Hub. Celtics with the win last night in Utah. We'll start with this and get your Red Sox thoughts as they are two hours from opening day. So the first couple hours of the program, we'll do this.

Get you some Patriot stuff as well.

But let's start with that Celtics game last night. Mas, what does it mean? What does it mean? Well, look, I always take a positive out of that sort of game. You're on the road. You're in Utah. You know, the jazz have overall been playing pretty well. I mean, that's a playoff team right now, right?

That's a playoff team.

You go in there and think of all the guys that were missing.

Holy mackerel, you know, no Horford, no Kyrie, no Morris.

They're missing the whole starting lineup, basically, with the exception of, you know,

Brown and Tatum, and you go in there and you pull one out and, you know,

Brown hits the big shot at the end?

What does it mean?

To me, it fortifies that they should win the first round without Kyrie.

I mean, they're capable of it.

And then after that?

And is it good that these role pieces are, you know, feeling it themselves and accomplishing more and so when they're called on in the real games, is it going to matter? Yeah, well, I think there's a chance of that, that they start to build some confidence because to me that, you know, and I tie this more to Tatum and probably just because I'm more focused on him than I am on Brown, but Tatum has been playing really well, and you know, Brown had a good game last night. And I think there's a chance that this gives those guys a little bit of boost, that the silver lining to all these injuries is that the young guys might be better players come postseason time. And so there is a benefit there. I mean, it can't hurt. Now, again, the postseason game is a different game. We'll see, ultimately.

But if there's an open shot now with a game on the line and Jalen Brown has to take it, don't you think they're a little bit better off than they were 24 hours ago? Yeah, sort of my point there. Yeah, I think there is some of that. Now, to me, there's also a bigger discussion about the injuries and who they can beat and who they can't beat without Kyrie,

and we can get to that.

But I think there's a real positive... So a bigger discussion about the injuries and who they can beat and who they can't beat without Kyrie, and we can get to that.

But I think there's a real positive to be taken that from last night. I know that's wildly out of character for me.

I know.

I hate doing it.
