B-Pod Studios And now, I'm just trying to spell it out for the list. Felger and Mask. S-T-O-O-O-P-I-D. T-E-P-I-D. P-O-B. Boom. Isn't that, Bob? Felger and Mask. Q-U-U-I-T-Q-Q-Q. Okay, thank you. No, spell up for me too.

I'm an idiot.

985, the Sports Hub.

All right, final hour of the program, let's get you updated on the latest rumors.

Mark Stein, New York Times.

Celtics trying to package up picks to get into the top three of the draft tonight,

0:38.8

which, in my opinion, I hope it's not to use a, to draft a guy.

0:43.9

Last thing I want is another 18, 19 year old kid on this team that you got to wait three,

0:48.6

four years for him to hit his maturity date.

0:51.2

They have holes and they have needs, but a young youth is not one of them,

0:55.8

in my opinion. So please, for the love of God, if that's actually in play that they're trying

1:02.4

to move up to the top three, it's to then flip that third pick for a real guy. Okay, so that's my

1:08.5

hope on that. And, oh, by the way, for you to get up into the top three, your picks are not enough. I mean, even if you include future picks, like what team is going to give you a top three pick for 14, 26, and 30? No shot. You don't know, Felka. I mean, please, or even if you add in future first, because you're going to be good for a while. So that has to be a player going out the door with those picks. I would think so. I mean, you can't get, if you trade just those picks, I'm not sure you can get to 10. I mean, really? Why would anyone in the top 10 do that? What do they need with 26 and 30? What does anyone need with that? So, you know, that's percolating. You know, is that third pick?

1:47.3

Could that be used as an enticement for Houston and James Hardin? I'm not giving up on that. That's too juicy. That's too fun. And I've sort of come around on the idea of James Hardin to the Celtics, even though I still don't like the player and think he's a loser and I haven't changed my mind on him. But I've sort of talked to myself into the trade, even beyond just the talk show value, of which there's tremendous talk show value in James Harden coming here. Would love it for Felger and Maz. But even if I'm a Celtics fan or the Celtics, I think there's, I've sort of talked myself into it in that front as well.

2:36.7

Could the number three pick be used as enticement for Houston? You know, because again, why are they sending you James Hardin for 14, 26, and 30? They're not. They're not. If you give them three, you know, is that on the table? Stu, what are you just hearing? What did you just tell me, my ear? So there's a reporter out of Milwaukee, Gary Woffel.

2:36.7

He's a reporter out of Milwaukee, Gary Woffel.

2:42.2

He's a national basketball writers association of America, so I give him some credence here.

2:44.9

His website looks like it was made in 1997, by the way.

2:46.4

Well, that's when time stops in Milwaukee.

2:48.5

We haven't really advanced past that day.

2:50.2

It's nice and clean. It's actually beautiful.

3:25.2

Milwaukee, that's the future. But he has a few Celtics notes in here. One is Janus is a possibility for Boston in the future. Why? So maybe he's sniffing the same thing, Mas was sniffing last week when he told us Janus reached out to Jason Tatum. Yeah, it doesn't sound like they're going to move Janus now, though. I mean, they'll be after the season, right? So, you know, I mean, they just added to the roster. But I told, look, all I heard was that Janus is doing his diligence on where he could play if it doesn't work out there. And so one of the guys that he allegedly spoke with was Tatum. That's pretty much the extent of my knowledge. Great nugget, though.
