| 0:03.5 | That was a Marilyn Monroe-esque. |
| 0:06.1 | Happy birthday. |
| 0:07.3 | Late at the feet of Mike Gorman, the voice of the Celtics on NBC Sports, Boston. |
| 0:13.6 | And he celebrated his birthday last Friday, and I was the only one on the show that actually reached out to him. |
| 0:20.4 | You know, it's always great is telling someone you did something and bragging about it. I did it, right, Mike? You did. And I appreciated that. That was very nice. When I told you on the air, did I not? Did you? Yes. Oh, okay. Yeah, but that doesn't mean as much, doesn't Mike. It's not that same personal touches. No, I guess it's done. No, I guess it's done. His defensive is... I did the rap this time of Tommy wants to sing on the air now. |
| 0:41.2 | All of a sudden, much, does it, Mike? It's not that same personal touches. No, I guess it's not. |
| 0:37.5 | So, thank you. His defensive is... He did the rap. The summer, Tommy, wants to sing on the air now. All of a sudden, he's willing to sing or anything. It's a sultry voice. Yeah. Has he got a little carried away with the birthday. We kind of referenced that too many times during the broadcast, I thought. Now, you had a very rare no-show the other day. |
| 0:57.1 | Was that because you partied a little too hard for your birthday? |
| 1:00.1 | No, I wasn't partying too hard. We had, my wife had made this arrangement to celebrate the birthday with a lot of people coming. In fact, we had a friend, we said an invitation to a friend of mine from Australia, and he showed up. |
| 1:13.4 | So people were coming from quite a distance, so he didn't seem right for me to not be around for the actual party. |
| 1:18.9 | So Comcast was nice enough to, NBC Sports Boston, excuse me. |
| 1:22.4 | How could you make that? |
| 1:23.2 | It was nice enough to give me the day off. |
| 1:24.8 | Yeah, well, listen, that's the same guy who's making the movie and |

| 1:38.6 | that may happen that may really happen so look for mike gorman in a theater uh near you. He can look quickly, but yes. Please, if he's a good friend, he'll put you in for at least an hour. So what the hell happened the other night? I mean, that Detroit team just looked awesome. I mean, Drummond can't be stopped, and it seems that every time he comes to the TD Garden, he sets some sort of weird rebounding record. I mean, Al Horford, it's the first game this season. I've just seen Al Horford get abused. What went wrong, and how do you stop that? I don't think you do. I think Drummond has changed the landscape literally in the Eastern Conference with his ability to hit free throws. |
| 2:20.8 | I mean, he always was a special talent, but you couldn't have him on the floor at the end of games because even with his 70% shooting this year, he still got the worst percentage in NBA history. |
| 2:26.8 | He's the worst free throw shooter ever, basically. |
