Yep, yep, yep, yeah, Bo Hess, and now the end is near.

Felger and Mass, 985, the Sports Hub.

As the final seconds tick off here, 27 months after being at the bottom of the NBA pool,

the Celtics are back in the conference finals. And what do you know,

Brad Stevens is back in the final four. Two teams outrageously evenly matched. Stage, a seven-game

I was on TV on CSN with him last night on the court.

And he said something about the upcoming draft lottery that just made me go, huh, and made me think and made me come to the conclusion that maybe the Celtics wouldn't be all that broken up if they lose tonight,

which statistically is likely to happen. They only have a 25% chance they're going to win the thing.

So there's a three and four chance. They won't get the number one pick.

There's a three and four chance they're going to drop tonight.

So there's a pretty good likelihood. They are going to get porked. Maybe for them that wouldn't be the worst thing. And here's why. Here's Chris Mannix last night on CSN. What in Danny wants in his heart of hearts? Oh, in his heart of hearts, he wants to make a deal.
