B-Pod Studios

It's Boston's most listened to afternoon radio program.

This isn't funny.

This is sports.

Felger.

We are not here to laugh.

NMAX on 985, the Sports Hub.

We're not here to laugh. 985, the sports hub.

It's our two, Felger and Mazfelger back here in the A-hole chair in our town for entire studios in Dorchester alongside Anthony and Big Jim Murray, fully loaded program. Your reaction to the Rob William News, Mass? Yeah, devastating in a lot of ways. And it'll probably be around a month. It could be a little bit longer, those meniscus tears. I'm assuming he's going to get scoped, could go up to six weeks.

So what, where are you getting this from? What, the meniscus tear? Yeah, I mean, this timeline has... Oh, just from experience. Yeah, just from experience. I mean, I remember guys having him now. I think it's come down a little over the years. So it could be anywhere, you know, around a month is not outrageous. He could be back in a month.

But, you know, this regular season ends on April 10th.

And so at a minimum, you're going to miss him for the first round. He's out. For the first round, he's out. So here's what I hope for now, if you're the Celtics, or here's what they should hope for, that you don't end up as the number one or number two seed.

You don't have to face Brooklyn or whoever comes out of that in the first round. You get a favorable matchup. You can win without him in the first round and he's back for the second. Yeah, they should now be tinkering for the seeding. You want an easier draw in this first round. I think this is, it's not a killer, but it's brutal. Well, then I'm sorry to cut you off, and you want the three seed.

Yes.

Because the one of the two risks the nets in to just cut you off and you want the three seed.

Yes.

Yeah.

Because the one of the two risks the nets in the first. Correct. You want the three seed. Yep, absolutely right. You want to avoid the one or the two seed. You don't want who's coming out of that playing round. And so to me, you know, if they lose a couple of games here and they slide back down, that might not be bad.

So I just think he's a big part of it.

I think he's the third most important guy.

I'll do respect to Marcus Smart. I think Williams means more. I think that he, you know, the shot altering in and around the rim and on the three point line. Watch him out on the three point line when he gets out there and guys have to alter their shots. It's huge. When they switch onto him, he flashes out there and disrupt shots.

Absolutely.
