Good Year, more driven.

And now, the low post.

Welcome to the low post podcast on a Friday morning in the East Coast where a lot of things

have happened since we last talked. Brad Stevens doesn't coach the Celtics anymore.

Danny Angels doesn't run the Celtics anymore. The Lakers have been eliminated.
