Jones and Keith coming up in about a half an hour and lots to talk about with those guys,

including a Celtics lost last night.

And I got, there was an angry text earlier this morning, Megho, directed at you with regard to your Celtics take.

Okay.

I essentially asking you to stop washing the Celtics and to acknowledge that,

that New York has their number.

They might.

Dude, I've been the one that's been saying that.

I hear everybody else say, oh, I'm not scared of anybody in the Eastern Conference.

Celtics should be back in the finals.

I have not said that once.

I've said that.

I've said the Knicks are for real, but I do think that the strategy that they used yesterday

was let the Knicks think that they're the big dog and they own you because they

want that psychological advantage.

I'm not sitting here saying that Detroit or New York can't take you out before you get to the

finals. I'm not saying that at all. Like those are good teams and especially the Knicks. They built

that team two years ago to match up against your wings. They built that team to match up against you, so they match up well.

You're a better team, though.

You're a better team than New York, my opinion.

You're a better team than Detroit.

And last night, that's why I wanted Jalen Brown to play.
