HR 3 - Forecasting a deep playoff run for your Boston Celtics

It's Charles Barkley here with Wayfair.

Let me tell you, game day is serious business at my house.

If I'm grilling, chilling, and watching hoops,

my outdoor setup better be ready to play.

That's where Wayfair wins.

From patio seating and umbrellas to grill and grill accessories,

Wayfair's got it all and it shows up fast.

I'm talking fast and easy delivery.

So level up your grill game and your outdoor chill game

and head to Wayfair.com to get your outdoor space

ready for the season.

Wayfair every style, every home.

I'm done carrying around bulky drinks.

And I'm definitely done cleaning melted candy out of my pockets.

So yeah, I traded them both in for fruity rainbow 5 hour energy shots.

These little guys are as pocket sized as any candy.

But instead of a sugar crash, you get a zero sugar caffeine boost.

Candy can't even compare at this point.

Fruity rainbow 5 hour energy shots treat your taste buds

to an explosion of fruity flavor with a tasty caffeine kick.

That's right, caffeine just got a flavor upgrade.

And it's not just one flavor.

5 hour energy shots bring you tasty caffeine and 17 flavors.

17.

So if you're craving that candy flavored chaos,

but actually want energy that works,

grab fruity rainbow 5 hour energy shots.

Pocket sized, zero sugar, big flavor.

Hi, noon, Jones and Keith,

WEEI live today at Jake and Joe's in Wilburn.

It's starting to fill up about 15 minutes away from the first game.

Be like Twitch Mitch.

Yes, show up to Jake and Joe's in Wilburn.

He's got like a nice vest going on.

Looks like a million bucks.

Yeah, this is like off the clock.

Twitch Mitch is ready to go.

He's still got his Johnny Cash thing going.

I've never seen him not wearing all black.

Yeah, it's true.

But it's a little bit more casual.

He's got the rest down.

It's casual Twitch Mitch.

Very good.

Hang it out here at Jake and Joe's.

We'd love to see you stop by.

We're here till 2 o'clock.

Taken in the tournament.

I'll tell you, Keith.

Yeah.

I think Scout gave us a couple of clues there.

He said the rest of the league is going to be watching the Celtics

like a Hawkeye.

Hawkeye.

Interesting.

I think he's trying to tell us something about the bracket.

Never mind.

He said the Celtics went eight.

No.

Sweeping the state of California.

That's how I feel about my bracket.

I feel like I have a perfect.

This is about 63 and 0.

63 and 0.

I'm going to make 63 picks.

I think that's how that would work.

This could be your year.

I think I have a clean sweep.

Every Thursday at high noon, we go on the clock.

Still some time before the tournament tips off.

So we thought it'd be a good time to fill out our brackets

in just 60 seconds.

Let's pick.

Let's put Keith on the clock.

And let's hear his picks.

Go ahead, Keith.

All right.

Here we go.

East region loaded.

You have Duke, Yukon.

You have Michigan State Kansas.

St. John's all in our tiers for best basketball programs.

I hate picking chalk.

And I hate picking one seed.

I also rarely win.

But this is the one seed I do have going to the final four.

The boozer brothers are too much.

Cam boozer is unbelievable.

So I got Duke coming out of this region over to the West region

where you have Arizona's the top seed.

Purdue is the two seed.

This is where I think you're going to get some upsets.

Because I'm going based on best players.

A.J. to Basta and the 16 BYU.

I got them going all the way to the final four.

Oh, Darius A.Coff from Arkansas.

Put him in the elite A because how good he is.

South region.

Florida, Houston.

I'm going to take Houston to come out of that region.

And then in the Midwest where you have Michigan

and Iowa State, Virginia and Alabama.

I'm going to take Iowa State not only to come out of this one

but to win the whole thing.

Iowa State over BYU.

Duke over Houston in the final four.

Iowa State over Duke for the whole thing.

I also like Miamiville High, into the sweet 16.

Oh, right under the gun.

Keith.

There we go.

You're going to hear Miamiville High, again.

I already had this before I watched them last time.

Same.

I was like, if it ends up being SMU, maybe egg on my face.

But I was like, I'm taking these guys.

Everybody like ruled them out.

They're like, oh, they didn't play anybody.

It's like they won 31 straight game.

Look, if you learn anything from the Jones and Keith,

you can do the same on the phone.

617-779-793-77.

We'll give you 30 seconds with your bracket,

if you want, on Jones and Keith live today.

From Jake and Joe's in Wuburn.

Nick, kill me up.

Let's go.

All right.

I'm filling in my bracket.

In just 60 seconds.

In the east, I got upsets.

South Florida.

In the east.

In the east.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

In the west.

to the sweet 16, but Arizona beats Purdue to go to the final four and in the Midwest,

Akron and Miami of Ohio, both to the sweet 16 number one Michigan takes out number two Iowa State.

So in the final four, I have Michigan State and Houston,

give me the Spartans, I have Arizona and Michigan,

give me the Wildcats and for all the marbles in the national title game,

cutting down the Nets, Arizona, another national title their first since 1997 over MSU.

So I think we only have one overlap final 14 Houston.

We, I have Houston, Michigan State, so East is my top, my topsy-turvy bracket.

Okay, I would say I had Michigan State and the Johnny's in the elite eight.

So I have Michigan State, Houston, Arizona, Michigan.

So the only overlap is Houston.

Yeah, and I forgot to mention Kingston Flemmings, the point guard for Houston.

Really fun to watch.

Also a guy that might be like a top five pick.

Good draft.

Everyone's been talking about how good the draft is and why teams are tanking like crazy.

Because DeBansta, who I, I would still take number one overall.

You would.

I would.

But then watching Duke.

Camp Boosers.

So Booser, I think, is going to be like a national player of the year.

I wouldn't take him one.

Okay.

Personally.

Yeah, Peter said.

Well, no.

I don't like Peter's in because he taps out every other game.

So no, I don't like him.

So DeBansta or no.

Yeah, no.

But I, but I think it's like process of elimination.

Yeah.

I think A cup's too tiny.

I know, but he is electric.

I wouldn't let him slip because he'd be one of those guys that.

If he's really good and he gets picked like 10th.

And you're like, why the team 7, 8, 9 didn't take him.

You know, sometimes you're just so overwhelmed.

Like what he's doing in the tournament is, or I'm sorry, the SEC tournament is crazy.

I, I got him.

There are four seats that easily could win at least a couple of games.

You're going to see more of him.

I think he's great.

And the kid from Houston's really good too.

And he's, he's a little bit bigger.

Like six.

Okay, interesting.

Oh, look who just rolled in.

Oh, the wives are here.

The wives table.

The wags are always out.

Very good.

When it comes to Jake and Joe's and Woober.

And they're not going to miss out on a site like today.

Our current wives.

So be like, well, yeah, I know your ex-wife.

I have not seen here.

She's not here.

She's not here.

She would never.

But be like Twitch Mitch.

Yeah.

Be like the wags of Jones and Keith.

Stop by Jake and Joe's in Woober.

And we're here today until two o'clock.

I think I gave you most of my upsets, Keith.

Oh, yeah.

So let me give you a couple more upsets that I'm looking at.

Well, we're all hornfrogs.

We are all hornfrogs.

We are.

That's only a nine over an eight.

So that's not really an upset.

But we'll start with a little juice.

A plus 130 money line.

No, no, no.

That's a healthy pay day.

Don't get me wrong.

Yeah.

I actually, I'm with you.

I have South Florida over Louisville.

I think where it could get a little walkie.

I think the whole country, by the way, has South Florida.

I think that's one that I think everybody is picking that game.

So the South was where I had most of my double digits.

I had Troy and McNeese winning.

So I have a 1213.

I have second round.

Okay, you have McNeese.

So I have Troy winning two games.

I got VCU beating North Carolina.

Which would be looking upset.

Yep.

I don't even know if it's a line-up set.

But A&M over St. Mary's is a 10-7.

So VCU is only like a two and a half point dog.

That's an 11 over a six.

But that's like...

So I like that.

That's a good...

I'm on VCU as well.

And then Miami of Ohio.

And then high point.

I usually bet against Wisconsin early.

Wisconsin's one of two.

They're either like in the final four.

They're out in the first round.

They're...

It's a weird Wisconsin team this year.

Yeah.

They're like a team that actually can score.

They shoot different.

They shoot different.

Which they never were with Bull Ryan.

They've never really been in their history.

So they are.

I'm with you.

Normally, I fade Wisconsin.

I'm fading them again.

Yeah.

But I wonder if that'll come back to bite me this year.

Because I normally...

I think it's lame to pick all the one seeds.

But then last year, it was all the one seeds.

And how many one seeds you got?

I got my face.

It's just one.

You only have one.

Yeah.

I got two.

Yeah, I got just one.

I did by the...

I was pretty...

It's a day.

It's pretty chalky in there.

Who does everybody...

What's the consensus pick?

Is everybody picking...

I would think Duke.

So they might be the number one overall seed in the tournament.

But I feel like they are...

They're regions of the top.

They're regions loaded.

Yeah.

And that's like a blue blood loaded region.

Yeah.

That's like actual good teams this year.

And like good coaching.

Good teams.

Yeah.

No, the east...

The east is the region, for sure.

Yeah.

So anyway, you got thoughts on the bracket.

dial us up.

617-779-793-7.

And you can go on the clock with all your bracket thoughts.

About five minutes away from tip off.

Of the first game live at Jake and Joe's in.

Wooburn.

Last night, Keith.

We had the Celtics.

We had Jalen Brown.

Uh-huh.

And he continues to roll with his spectacular season.

And now the last couple of games I feel like an actual pecking order

where he is above Jason Tatum.

I didn't feel that way for four or five games.

I did not.

When Tatum first returned.

The last two.

The last two, it feels like the pecking order is working itself out.

And Tatum to his credit.

Yeah.

Seems content.

Deferring early in both games.

To Jalen Brown.

He deferred late in the sun's game because it was closed.

This one last night was not.

So it didn't really come into play.

But he's been content early.

Yeah.

To defer to Jalen Brown.

And I continue to think that's a promising site for this team.

Yeah.

And I think sort of...

I do give Tatum a lot of credit for that.

And sort of seeing the season that Jalen Brown is having.

And saying, all right, I'm going to help this.

Am I no means going to get in the way of this.

And now the team's better.

The team's so much better because they were good before.

You could make a case that they were the best team in the East before Tatum returned.

Now, you could make a good case that they weren't, right?

You could be like, oh, no, give me Detroit.

Give me the Knicks head to head.

But then with the addition of Tatum, I got to put them over the top.

Look at Tatum's shot attempts, though.

Per game since he's gotten back.

16, 16, 24.

No, I was...

24 was when Jalen went out, right?

Correct, yep.

1918, 15.

So like the shots are there.

He's also averaging eight and a half rebounds.

So he's...

Yeah, Tatum, Tatum double double cash last night, barely.

But it did.

He's already had three double doubles in the six games that he's played.

And that was another thing that I feel like got a little under discussed was when he wasn't playing.

They didn't just lose like Horford and Porzinga some holiday.

And everybody's like, oh, the Tatum scoring.

Tatum's turning to like a really good rebounder.

And when you play one big, some of the games they've lost this year have come down to offensive rebounds allowed at the very end.

Even the chat home grin.

I was just going to say even.

Even the OKC game.

Even in that one.

Yeah.

Which Tatum wasn't playing.

But that's one where like you could still go with Jessica and you have a better chance of everybody.

So he's doing a lot of the other things.

And there's still plenty of shots.

But I get your point.

Like there are times where Brown has the ball and you're like, all right, he's going for it.

He's not...

It's not the other way around where in years past it's like get out of Tatum's way.

Now it's like get out of Brown's way.

Yeah.

But I think it's working for this year.

And who knows how Jalen feels in the off season and Tatum feels in the off season.

We'll definitely talk about it when we get there.

But I think for this year it's the right thing for the team.

Tarp agrees.

We talked to Tarp last week.

We talked to him again yesterday.

Yeah.

Pure hoops.

Like he agrees.

That's the way to structure the team.

That's the way to do it.

And for this year, I agree it's the way to do it.

I was skeptical Tatum would buy it.

That was...

I wanted them to do it this way.

Yeah.

I didn't think Tatum would do it.

And the Tatum's credit.

These last two games he's doing it.

Yeah.

And when he did it against Phoenix, I'm like, well, was that a one-off Jalen addict clearly going in that game?

No, no.

I think he's doing it.

And what I like about the Celtics right now, Keith, compared to a year ago, for instance.

Number one, they still have a shot at the one seed, which I just dismissed the other day.

I was like, why don't I open now?

I was like, it's done.

But with the news this morning that Kate Cunningham has a collapse lung, he may not play again in the regular seed.

I mean, I might not be coming back, period.

I don't know.

But he's not probably coming back for the foreseeable future.

He's going to be out.

Is Detroit catchable?

What does that mean for Jalen as a first team all NBA player?

If Cunningham doesn't hit the 65 game threshold to qualify?

Yeah.

I'm intrigued by all of that.

What I love about the Celtics this year compared to a year ago.

They were not playing their best basketball this time this year.

And we tried to tell you in real time, they're in bad habits.

Oh, it doesn't matter.

Just get healthy.

They're the most talented team.

That's all that mattered.

And a lot of you felt that way.

It was wrong.

They weren't playing good basketball this year.

They're playing their best basketball.

Yeah.

Not only that, but they're also like they're re-acclimating.

Jason Taterbees playing more minutes.

And so it's like you you have reason to put your whole team on the floor.

Not just chasing the one seed or holding off the mix for the two seed.

But it's also like making sure your team is playing together.

So it's the opposite of last year where you're like, all right, we know what our team is.

Let's kind of rest.

Let's sort of like just be healthy.

Now it's like, no, we're ramping this guy up just in time.

Tatum gives them some ceiling.

Yeah.

As does the potential return of Uchovich.

So like, right, they're playing their best basketball.

And there's some leeway to cycle up even a little bit.

So I think that is huge compared to a year ago.

They didn't beat San Antonio without Jalen for half the game.

They didn't beat OKC without Tatum for the entire game.

But they were toe-to-toe with the two best teams in the league.

And when they've been healthy and had everybody back, they look like by far

the best team in the East ready to go to the finals.

I didn't feel that way about them last year.

I knew they were the most talented team.

They weren't playing good basketball this year.

They are.

There are browns been the leading scorer every game since Tatum has been back

with the exception of two.

One of them, he got thrown out of the game in the first half.

And Derek White had the most points.

The other was the Wizards game.

Tatum.

Yeah, when Tatum was like going to go for 83.

That's what they were saying in the broadcast.

Because it was against the Wizards.

And like that game was, was over.

So Cade Cunningham, the big NBA news today, is he as a collapsed lung.

So I did a quick little Google AI overview.

Oh, good.

Good, good, good.

Yeah.

ChatGP TV on how long he's going to be out.

All I wrote was how long are you out with a collapsed lung?

Which it is possible to have a collapsed lung.

And then have a knock.

Wow.

That is possible.

Yeah.

Recovery.

Now this surprised me.

Recovery for a collapsed lung.

Numa Thorax.

Yep.

Usually takes one to two weeks for minor cases.

I felt like it would be months.

No, I thought he was like a turp.

Turp's like crap.

It says, uh, oh, no, turps.

Oh, oh, I see what turps looking at.

Oh, I was state.

Oh, I was state.

And that was the three.

Yeah.

You're going to keep it on.

The three is the two is in the free throws for me, turp.

Well, there's the three.

Well, crap.

All right.

I just need all of them.

All right.

No, I don't like our bet already.

We're out.

Who's in the next game?

Who's get the next one?

Next one's I South Florida.

I got money line there.

South Florida.

I got money line there.

Don't worry about it.

Travel, sir.

Sorry.

So activity restrictions.

Patients must avoid this is if you have a collapse long.

Must avoid lifting, strenuous work, or flying.

Until cleared by a doctor.

It usually takes two to four weeks.

So now we're sort of extending it a little bit.

I feel like he's out for the rest of the regular season.

And therefore he's not going to qualify for MVP and all NBA.

Not that people necessarily care about that.

But it's kind of unfair though to him.

Like he's got an awesome season.

Jalen cares, though.

You better believe in him.

Yeah, that opens up a spot, though, for everybody.

I disagree.

I think fans care.

How about the MVP stuff?

Hell yeah, Hornfrogs.

Yeah.

I think they care about him.

Yeah.

Being first team all NBA and being in the MVP.

Yeah.

I think they absolutely care.

Yeah.

But, uh, no.

So it's a three and a half game lead right now.

The pistons have over the Celtics and you have to feel like.

There's a chance to close that gap.

15 games left to go.

No, free throws.

Come on.

John's is out for the rest of the show.

So good run though, Nick.

We had we get beat until 12-18.

Yeah, I think the game tipped off.

Like two minutes ago.

We already lost him.

Yeah, we're out.

That's it for us.

You can replay the Maxine to pre interview.

If you want to do that.

We'll replay Maxine to pre.

We'll replay Brad fun.

Brad fun.

Well, he's free throws.

What are we fathom for?

Just give him a dunk.

Well, no easy buckets is a Hornfrog motto.

That's not what I subscribe to with 321.

They always say that.

They always say that.

All right.

Well, we're lots of loads of losers.

We're all Hornfrogs out for the game on the money line.

Next game is at 1240 on true TV.

So as soon as in practical jokers wraps up.

We'll have Nebraska Troy.

I don't worry.

During halftime they'll also show in practical jokers.

I have an issue with how late they go with their post game covers.

Because I'm like, where are the jokers?

I made jokers.

I need somebody to tell somebody else what to do on the street.

I think the impractical jokers.

It's how I feel about your Dan Cook stance.

And you're always like them.

Yeah, I just always like the jokers.

Just their hijinks.

It's so silly.

I believe they were just picked up for season 13.

Dude, even 13 years.

They're doing something right.

One guy shady though.

Did they cancel the one guy?

Oh, did they cancel somebody?

I don't know.

I just Billy just said, hey, tell Keith.

Thank you, Billy.

On top of it.

You can't get rid of the disrespect.

No, you're impractical.

No, no, no, no.

No, Billy knows how many.

Six, one, seven, seven, seven, nine, seven, ninety-three, seven.

Good defense there by the horn frogs.

Billy, with all the latest in trending and when we come back,

the Celtics have not missed Porzingus or Horford or Drew Holiday yet.

Yeah.

Great call.

Strikes.

There we go.

But will they miss some compost season time?

We will get to that right after.

Jones and Keith live.

And Jake and Joe's in WooBern.

Good spot to watch the game.

Stop by and say hello.

Like our friend, Manette did over here.

I went to shake his hand, Keith.

Did you spike his water on him?

No, no, no, no.

I went to shake his hand.

I knocked over the water.

So it's a big mess.

Shout out, shout out to Manette for coming out.

I see a steam of water.

Stevo, that's on me.

Water on the house.

Put it on Jones.

I have Steve over at the bar.

Johnny's fan who we were talking to earlier today.

He complimented your shoes, Keith.

Love my shoes.

Now is it shoes?

Is it a compliment?

Yeah.

Well, yeah.

But he blew right past the jersey.

I feel like a lot of people are going to go pulpier.

I feel like that was kind of a sneaky shot at your jersey.

I think he liked the shoes.

I've gotten a lot of compliments on my shoes.

Have you heard the one?

You've gotten a lot of them?

So I tell you, once I was at the grocery store

and I was wearing a different pair of Jordans

and I was just walking around

and some guy stopped me in the aisle.

And he's like, hey, I'm like, hey, he goes.

Where'd you get those?

Where'd I get the shoes?

Oh my god.

I think I ordered them online.

It's like, those are really nice.

Really?

Yeah, he's like, no, he goes, do you play basketball on those?

I go, no, I just kind of wear them here.

He's like, I wouldn't wear them around.

He's like, was that serious?

He's like, I wouldn't just wear them around.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I'm wearing the grocery store.

I don't really do anything active.

Yeah.

This is the most active I am.

So I got them on.

Yeah, he was very, he liked the shoes

but he was really like mad that I was wearing them out.

Can I tell you, that's got to be a nice feeling.

I've never had one person in my life.

Yeah, we're all hornfrogs.

That's, I love that.

The rock frogs are looking good.

They are looking sharp.

I will, I will tell you.

You don't care about shoes.

No, no.

Well, I don't, but I would, but it'd be a nice feeling.

I think for somebody to be like, hey.

Yeah.

Where'd you get those?

I get that every once in a while.

I don't think that's ever happened to me in my life.

Oh my god, these?

Well, these little things?

Oh, these little things?

Yeah.

These aren't even my good pair.

These are my groceries.

These are my outdoor pair.

Pretty good, though.

So anyway.

That was, well, someone what's gone on here at Jake and Joe's.

I'll keep my Italian arms waving around away from everybody's water.

But you won the 3-2-1 bet.

So you're excited about that?

I'm surprised I didn't knock over everybody's water when I won that.

But yes, no, I did, I did cash on that 3-2 bet.

Refs had my backs.

Oh, they're missing some bunnies here.

TV is missing a lot of bunnies.

That's all right.

Hornfrogs looking good.

Doubling up Ohio State early.

They missed three shots from a foot away.

In a row.

They're out playing them.

That's all right.

Don't worry about it, Keith.

So we got all our thoughts on the bracket here again.

If you want to get in and go on the clock, you can.

In 30 seconds.

6-1-7-7-7-9.

7-9-3-7.

Jones and Keith bracket live.

At Jones and Keith, we have slip knot and tool.

Yeah, big one.

With a birth in the Elite 8 on the line.

That is one of two matchups here today.

In the Jones and Keith March Madness 1990 slash early 2000s.

Heavy metal, new metal grunge.

Alternative pop punk, butt rock, and rock bands bracket.

System of doubt is matched up again.

Sling apart.

Yeah, as our other.

Another good one.

Another very good one.

Those are live at Jones and Keith.

Metallica and Corn have punched their tickets through to the Elite 8.

That was yesterday voting when final.

Earlier today.

It happens all month long here on Jones and Keith.

I mentioned this earlier, Keith.

With Porzingus and Horford and even Drew Holiday.

And we're just thinking about it because.

Horford and Porzingus were back last night.

Porzingus was back against the Celtics.

The Warriors were playing.

Shockingly, Porzingus did play.

Yeah, no, it's true.

Yeah, Horford did not.

And it gets you thinking.

All right, they haven't missed those guys to this point.

I do think of the Tim Bontem story from a month or so ago.

Whatever it was where he said.

I spoke to a coach or a GM or whoever it was who said.

Well, yeah, the Celtics are playing hard now.

And they're giving their best every night.

Become the postseason.

Everybody's given their best.

Are the Celtics going to miss guys like Porzingus and Horford and Holiday

in the postseason because to this point.

They haven't missed them at all.

No, and I think the only time that you would would be the postseason.

And that's not even a shot at those guys.

It was just like sort of where they were a year ago.

And then what you even expected out of them this year.

Porzingus, unfortunately for him, in and out of the lineup.

And he probably will be for the rest of his career.

I mean, this year he's played like 22 games, 23 games, something like that.

And he's been on two different teams.

Can't rely on him.

Horford, we even saw him last year really breaking down.

I didn't think you were going to get great return on investment for those guys.

Drew Holiday though, a little bit different where you're like.

He is like a coach on the floor and like a calming influence.

But I think that might be outweighed by the fact that Tatum,

Brown, Pritchard, and White have so much more experience now.

And then they did two years ago.

So two years ago, and they won the title.

I don't think you won the title without Drew Holiday.

And I agree.

I think.

I think holiday is going to show up where they miss him in the postseason.

And I think maybe even Horford to a degree.

But now it's like, look at all the other teams in the east.

Who has?

They don't really.

There's not like some team where you go, oh my gosh.

That is a champion with, you know, championship medal.

I respect the next postseason pedigree.

I do.

They beat the Celtics a year ago.

Yeah, you have to.

They won playoff rounds at least the last couple of years.

They were in the Eastern Conference Final a year ago.

I respect the next playoff pedigree.

But it's not like they're champions and they've been there and done that.

They're not that team.

Well, no, but and also going back to the Drew Holiday point.

The next beat the Celtics with Drew Holiday for every game.

Good point.

And so that's a great point.

Yeah.

So Detroit has no playoff experience.

Hardly meaning like going on a run.

They have none of it.

No.

You know, I don't respect.

Well, Harden, you know,

James Harden, that kind of hurts the calves.

I thought.

Terp immediately corrected me.

I thought Mitchell had gotten to a Western Conference Final with the jazz.

Wrong.

So he's won like around in Utah.

I mean, Duncan Robinson.

If you want to count him as on the pistons.

He's been on those heat teams that were there.

But like he's not like the lead guy.

Yeah.

So like I go to like Miami with Spolstra, I guess,

and like BAM out of bio and hero and like,

but those guys still they have one.

No.

They've been there.

I mean, there's also guys who have won.

So like, all right.

Do they miss holiday?

Maybe a little bit in the postseason.

They have way more of a big game pedigree than anyone left in the East is not even close.

So even if they miss those guys a little bit.

They're already in a way better spot than any other team when it comes to

championship pedigree, championship medal.

Been there, done that.

They have four guys who played prominently.

Three guys.

No, no, no.

Who played prominently out of championship team?

If you want to count Pritchard, it's four.

I think Pritchard's a good point because now you feel even better about him on the floor.

Like you're not like looking to get him off.

Where it seemed like a couple of years ago he would have runs.

He'd hit some big shots.

But then teams would go out of him defensively and you're like,

all right, you got to get him.

I get you holiday back in there.

Now between white and Pritchard.

And then obviously Brown and Tatum are going to have the ball in their hands a lot.

I think you're good.

I think you're good.

Like I, not that true holiday wouldn't be a helpful player on this team.

But I don't think we're going to, if they get eliminated early,

I don't think that's going to be the reason why.

You're not going to be like, oh, I've only been held onto him.

I think the roster fits really well together.

We're talking Red Sox earlier.

Doesn't not fit great together.

No.

This one really, especially the way Tatum is playing in his games back.

They compliment each other.

Everybody kind of knows what they are.

And if they get moose of itch back, that's sort of a big if.

Like what he looks like when he comes back, but then they're even better.

Because now you have like a real big guy coming off the bench.

I know Luca Garza was good the other night, but or last night.

But I don't want to rely on that in the playoffs.

No.

So moose of itch is there.

And then I think they're kind of cooking with gas.

This is a perfect run for Garzilla.

Yeah.

Vooch of itch is out.

Play him down the stretch.

It's March.

It's April basketball.

But in the playoffs, I agree.

You want Vooch of itch.

You and fairness.

I mean, he's never gotten on any type of playoff run.

But that's when he was arguably the best player on Orlando or one of the best players on Chicago.

Yeah.

He's now at these a bench piece.

And so that's like that's like a luxury bench piece.

When you have Vooch of itch and Richard on your bench, that's a good bench.

Yeah.

And it's fine because we came back with the sound from the broadcast last night.

True and scale talking about how all the leaks taking notice.

Yeah, I would say they better be like if they weren't before.

I mean, even when they soon as Tatum came back, I feel like that conversation happened.

Because you were like, it was a slow start in that Dallas game.

But by the second half of Dallas, and then the whole Cleveland game,

you're like, oh, I feel like the odds shifted even after that Cascade.

I agree.

Right.

But they're like, oh, they might have been the favorite of the co-favorite.

And then they waxed Cleveland.

You're like, oh, boy.

The final score might have been like faithless.

11, yeah.

But that was not a close game.

No.

It's smoked Cleveland.

No, they dominated it.

And that was another team that was getting even more respect than Detroit and New York.

People liked Cleveland.

And then you saw, and that was only the second game for Taylor.

It really makes no sense.

They had James Harden.

And now people are like, I'm in on Cleveland.

Like Harden is a player.

I'm like Mitchell and Mobley, though.

But I feel like, yeah, Harden's going to take off the table.

I love Mitchell.

But like, in fairness, I feel a little bit the way I talk about Donovan Mitchell is like the way I talked about Butler or even Lillard,

where I'm like, these guys are killers.

None of them have ever won.

No.

Like, they all terrify me in a big game.

Right.

You know, Lillard used to, I mean, we're talking about the fourth time Lillard then right now.

Well, he could win you a three point concept.

Yeah.

Butler is hurt right now.

I'm saying in general, like that, when the Celtics would run into those guys in the postseason.

Oh, is there a guy like that in those guys killers in the East?

I don't know.

I think Cunningham could be, but we haven't really seen it in the playoffs yet.

Right.

But he has a collapse long.

But I'd allow for a more from Detroit, who's never done it.

Yeah.

But that's really the only flaw I see with Detroit.

Yeah.

Whereas like Harden's had an opportunity to do it a million times.

He's never done it.

Even a couple of years ago against the Celtics, it was, he had one unbelievable game.

And then he had like three horrible games.

It's true.

That's him.

It's easy to win you a game.

He's either vanishing.

Yeah.

Or he has like a great game.

Yeah.

I think he had a couple of really good games.

Did he win him a game with like a, yeah, a late shot.

And then he had another game where he went off.

Maybe he had two, but then he also like really took it the way.

Yeah.

Like really took it the way.

It's true.

Kelly and Amherst always loves talking Celtics.

Go ahead, Kelly.

Gentlemen, I'm loving the live show.

You're sounding really good.

We do.

The only thing that I don't think sounds good is the dismissive tone.

The dismissive tone towards Luke of Garza.

I fully will admit he's not, he's not playoff proven.

But I just want to make one point.

In 2022, including Drew Holiday, I'm sorry, 2024, including Drew Holiday.

Almost everything we've gotten that team was having their best year like pretty much ever of shooting the three.

And then they kind of came off of that.

It just kind of the stars align.

Luke of Garza is shooting the three like it's 2024.

I like them in there.

That's all I got.

Okay, but he's not going to get the playoff.

I don't think he's going to get any playoff minutes.

I mean, I don't see him getting any playoff burn.

I hope not.

I would hope not either an injury happened or it's a blowout one way or the other if he's getting playoff.

But look, so what do you I always want to play less guys than the end of playing?

Yeah.

So let's say they even go to nine right in the ninth guy plays very little.

So your starters last night were white, brown, Tatum, Howzer, Keta.

So those five.

Yep.

That's what I would say.

Okay.

And Garza loves out.

Yeah.

Garza loves out.

Yeah.

You go out.

Give me a little rock Harper every once in a while.

I would tell you.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I wouldn't wouldn't be back.

Junior.

Junior.

I would probably take.

I did.

I did.

You want to championship pedigree.

Yeah, I do.

That's how you get it.

He'll win your three straight.

Yeah.

He absolutely will.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

He absolutely will.

One quick thought of the tournament, Keith.

Hornfrogs came out hot.

What happened to the frogs?

Well, they're still up.

14-13.

But it's tightening up a little bit.

Man.

Basketball is a game of runs, Turk.

I don't know if anybody's ever said that.

Basketball is a game of runs.

That's a good take.

Right now, Ohio State's on a bit of a run.

But we're all Hornfrogs here today at Jake and Joe's in Wuber.

I do think, and I said this earlier, I think all four of these early games.

I think all the underdogs have a shot.

Now, TCU is barely an underdog, two and a half point underdog, whatever it is.

Eight-nine game.

I think Troy has a real shot against Nebraska.

Yeah.

I think South Florida, like the whole country, I think, is picking South Florida.

That opened that, like, oh, yeah.

Six and a half?

Four and a half now, right?

No, it's gone.

Of lower.

No, I'm saying it moved like two points.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Now, some of that has to do.

I think Louisville might be without their best player.

And then I think high point against Wisconsin.

I think those first four games.

Then it might start to peter out a little bit after that.

I think the first four games we got live dogs, which is a great time.

Oh, I hear him barking.

All of those tips.

Yeah.

Here while we're at Jake and Joe's in Wuburn.

So stop by.

Say hello.

If you're here and you came out because of us, stop by and say hello.

We're happy to talk to everybody over here.

I'll try not to knock your water out of your hands.

No promises.

I'm not pledging to it.

No.

But we'll do our best to not do that.

So stop by.

Say hello.

We'd love to see you and drink in some college hoops here at Jake and Joe's in Wuburn.

Coming up next.

It's always a fun time, Keith, when we have Keith from Madness.

But it's more fun.

Oh, yeah.

When it is a live, Keith from Madness.

The suspect, this guy, an intoxicated raccoon who found out, passed out in the bathroom.

That's 36-year-old Calvin Johnson with the bloody face.

And you heard him right.

He told the deputy.

He teleported into a stolen car and crashed it.

Over the past few weeks, we've told you about the bear on the roof.

We've told you about the bear with the chainsaw.

Don't bear on the rough story.

All right, time for the madness here in Jones and Keith W.E.I.

We are at Jacob Chosen, Wu Bern for day one of the tournament.

It's amazing.

They say productivity just knows times during the I can see you can see it live here.

They're all at Jones and Keith.

That's why productivity is just dropping like a stone at work.

How much work can you really get done after five or six beers?

I mean, I don't have to go back to the office.

I couldn't even get through that first segment with Twitter.

I didn't get through that segment with TCU.

It was battling out for a 3-2-1.

I couldn't even focus.

I know.

Now we also have Troy Nebraska.

I took a little sprinkle on Troy outright by the way.

Not to jinx it.

So the people know where my rooting interests lie.

Troy out to a nice start.

I'll tell you what, if TCU ends up losing this game, Jones,

it's going to be the one-foot shots they keep missing.

Yeah, the bunnies.

The bunnies are not their thing.

That could come back to bite them a little bit.

All right, we go down under Jones for this story.

I'll straw ya.

The home of Bluey, Bingo, Bandit, and Chili.

Yeah.

For this story.

Lucky, lucky dad.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But it's actually a US news station.

But they are covering a very important story from Australia.

So you're not going to hear the cool accent.

Okay.

But it is a story about Australia.

Go ahead.

Check it out.

We've got to have a little Aussie story here.

Oh, this is cute.

Travelers.

Stop right there.

It's cute.

It's a cute story.

Wombat.

Wombat.

Good one.

Very native to Australia.

Wombat.

Yeah.

I think it may be a Wombat story.

That's what I'm thinking.

Platyplus.

Could be.

Kuala's super cute.

Kuala's and kangaroos actually aren't cute.

Kuala's are.

No.

Kuala bear.

It's a little bit.

They're actually not bears.

Don't let the name fool you.

They're like gross.

They're like grossly muscular.

Kuala was.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, you're going to shame them for being in shape.

Yeah, they're two in shape.

Okay.

There's some of you riddled with STDs.

Yeah.

I do know that, Nick.

I think they're like full of chlamydia.

Wait.

Yeah.

That's not Nick taught the class.

What's Kuala's?

That was with a Kuala.

So that's gross.

Kangaroos, I'm with you.

We've got kangaroos enough to show.

Oh, they're just testing.

Yeah.

They're giant rats.

They'll box you.

Kuala's basically another big, a big STD riddled rat.

I did not know that.

I didn't know that either.

I didn't know that.

Nick is too fierce.

The more you learn.

Kuala's.

This is not a Kuala store.

It's not a Wombass store.

Although that is a good guess.

It's something else though down in Australia.

Oh, this is cute.

Travelers at Hobart Airport in Australia.

The Tasmania area.

Well, they got a furry surprise.

What?

What?

What?

I'm just going to be Christian.

The furry surprise.

Oh, they got a furry surprise.

That kind of furry surprise.

It was at the Hobart Airport.

Sure.

Named after the Great Division III College in upstate New York.

And somebody they're going to a furry surprise.

It was none of the Christian.

In the gift shop.

There he was.

Drive a furry surprise.

What a wild possum.

Oh.

Possum.

Possum.

Possum.

Possum.

Okay.

So there's a wild possum in the story.

You can play the rest of it, Nick.

And then I'll explain.

Okay.

Oh, he does blend in.

He tried to blend in with the other stuffies and the animals

at a gift shop.

Well, someone caught the little guy on video.

And one airport staffer joked.

It looked pretty comfortable with his friends there.

And eventually, he really does look comfy.

And I love that they just let him hang out.

He eventually left the shop and went for a little stroll around the terminal

before it was safely escorted out.

And then he was euthanized.

Well, so what they did was this during the day or at night.

It was during the day.

He's probably freaking people out.

Well, unwrap it.

It should be asleep.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

They're not comfortable.

He's not asleep.

Yeah.

He's raties.

So this, I would agree, you're probably going to say it's an inside job.

Has to be.

So there's a setup at the airport with like overpriced items.

And you're like, oh, I better grab something before I get out of here.

Great point.

So it's like a whole bean full of stuffed animals and one actual live possum.

I've never seen a live possum.

I've seen a countless dead ones, Brad.

Oh, I've seen them all at night scurrying around.

You never seen that?

No.

Oh, the city has them.

Raccoons.

You think they're possums?

You think they're rats?

Yeah.

Keep your guard.

Exactly.

I have urmines.

I have bunnies.

I have skunk.

I have fox.

I have deer.

You ever seen them awesome?

No.

I've seen them on the side of the road.

Yeah, sure.

I've seen more on the side of the road.

I'm not saying they don't exist.

I'm just saying I have it seen a live one.

It's not like Finland.

But wouldn't you be freaked out?

If you're like, here's all these stuffed animals.

Yeah.

Or a movie thing where it's like someone's hiding in with all these stuffed animals.

So you're like, oh, do I want that one?

Do I want that one?

And then one like just moves?

Yeah, it's probably just very rough.

Yeah, right.

You couldn't look at a pile of stuffed animals the same ever again.

So you think this is good though.

I hadn't even connected these dots.

You think it's an inside job to bring people.

I mean, I'd never even heard of the whole airport until today.

Go buy some merch.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Wow.

Next time I'm in Australia.

Yeah.

Let me go get like a truncan at the gift shop.

I think they screwed up though.

They should have stuffed the wombat in there to your point.

Yeah.

So they're more native to Australia.

Not a diamond dozen possum.

Girl, they would have been taken me to the king.

That's king.

You see in the possum in with all the stuffies.

Yeah.

I usually skip over the over price gift shop at the airport myself.

But well, sometimes it depends on where you are though.

Oh, but if you were in Australia, would you wait then?

Well, maybe not after my sandwich.

I think if I went to Australia, that's probably the kind of place I would go to the gift shop.

Yeah.

How much for the live possum?

They're like, we don't.

We're gonna go put them down.

We actually, we need somebody to remove this.

If you want to take them, go for it.

We're gonna go drown in the toilet if you if you must know.

So yeah, you just never know what you're gonna see at the Australia airport evidently.

No.

No.

No, I would say for sure not.

How's our squad?

How are the horned frogs doing over here?

Well, term gave me a thumbs up.

They were up six and then now Ohio State.

Oh, I thought Ohio State had the ball.

They're messing around.

Frogs are up four.

Yeah.

They've been wired.

Oh, no, Ohio State at the first three.

But they've been leading.

They've been leading.

No, I know.

Frogs in front.

Frogs in front.

This is where it went.

Wait, when's the third game?

Because this is when you start to get to peak.

Okay, 130.

130.

You get Louisville South Florida.

That's when it turns in like peak B at the bar.

I can't.

Three different screens.

I can't even focus.

Three different games.

I mean, one game I couldn't even focus.

Never mind what there's two or three.

That's true.

Go.

Yeah, all bets are off at this point.

But hot start to the tournament.

I'll tell you that much.

No, it has been indeed.

I like, by the way, we started to see.

Well, the wags took over one table over here.

Yeah, they did.

Yeah.

We got a team USA jersey.

I saw lots of Florida gear.

I haven't seen anybody in a Duke guy.

Well, that's why I was going to ask you.

So you see the Duke jersey over there.

Yeah.

Who's Duke five?

Langdon?

Who's Duke five?

It's a Duke five jersey.

Oh, it's not Tatum.

Nope.

Is it...

Cory McGatty.

No, he was 50, I think.

Who wore five at Duke?

On the current team?

Is it Booser?

Oh, Campbell's would make sense.

I don't even know.

I saw him play the tournament.

The guy was a machine.

Who wore five?

Who probably meant Carol's a good one.

They've had a few good players.

Oh, I was reading an article speaking of good players.

That they were saying, obviously, Calipari is that Arkansas.

Mm-hmm.

And there's like a derriest, a cuff article.

And they were like, he might be the best guard.

Calipari has ever coached.

Ah, that's crazy.

Because he's coached.

John Wall, Derek Rose, Devon Booker.

Yes, that's two number one picks.

It's an MVP.

Booker, he couldn't figure out how to start.

That's on him.

Yeah, but he coached him.

No, he did.

But Well and Rose were number one picks.

And Rose was an MVP.

Yep.

And then there's got to be a few other guys we're forgetting.

But...

Yeah, that was crazy.

But like, he's had another run.

We both predicted them to go relatively far, right?

Arkansas.

I think I only had Arkansas around.

Oh, never mind.

Give me it.

You got the bracket in front of you.

Yeah, I'm going to lose the...

Who's the five seed there?

The Wisconsin.

Nope.

Who's...

Wisconsin play?

High point.

Yeah, so I probably have Arkansas sweet 16.

They get bounced by somebody.

Right, right.

Yeah, Arizona, most likely.

I have Arizona winning the whole thing.

It is most definitely Arizona.

That would...

That would put a stop to things.

That is absolutely who it is.

All right.

Speaking of brackets, you can still vote.

At Jones and Keith.

It is our years now in the making.

Tradition.

The Jones to keep 1990 slash early 2000s.

Heavy metal, new metal, grunge.

Alternative pop-punk butt rock.

Rock bands bracket.

We have Woodstock 99 and Elite 8 matchup corn.

And Metallica, the one and two seed.

In Woodstock 99, have advanced through the Elite 8.

Osfest, sweet 16 matchups today.

System of the Down Lincoln Park.

Tool and slipknot.

We'll get to the Grunge region tomorrow.

Grab bag region on Monday.

And then we're through to the Elite 8.

So you can go seek out at Jones and Keith on Twitter and Instagram.

Oh, both are on Upset Alert right now.

Are they?

Yeah.

There's not a lot of talent.

Tools going to win that one.

Tools going to win that one.

But Lincoln Park's got pretty big on System of the Down.

Not a lot of ball in the worse out there.

That is not how I voted either.

No, that's weird.

I went System of the Down to that matchup.

I did vote.

Tool, yeah.

I have not yet big on System of the Down.

I have not yet found the matchup where I prefer slipknot.

I have not.

I personally have not found that.

Keep rooting against them all the way to the channel.

All right.

Yeah.

This is what happened.

I just keep hating on teams and they just keep advancing.

What's your mistake?

I just follow Keith at Keith 21.

Jones at Jones, W-E-E-I.

Our guy Jason, by the way.

Yeah.

We've shown these off.

I think we're going to get him out on Twitter.

No.

Torp's going to take a picture of him.

I don't think on Twitch you'll be able to see him very well.

But Jason showed up with like little baseball card version.

W-E-I playing card.

Me and Keith.

And we threw the old stats on the back.

The old Herbie Hancock on a couple of these.

And we're handed them out.

No, no, no, no stats.

No stats, yeah.

I don't know.

Rookie year maybe.

Five, ten, weight, not disclosed on mine anyways.

But anyway, thanks to Jason for dropping those off here today.

Stop by, say hello.

We're here till 2 o'clock, Jake and Jones.

In Wuburn, when we come back, let's get back to the Patriots.

The Red Sox as well.

We'll mix in some thoughts there.

That's next.

Well, they got a furry surprise.

I'm just going to be Christian.

I'm done carrying around bulky drinks.

And I'm definitely done cleaning melted candy out of my pockets.

So yeah.

I traded them both in for fruity rainbow five hour energy shots.

These little guys are as pocket sized as any candy.

But instead of a sugar crash, you get a zero sugar caffeine boost.

Candy can't even compare at this point.

Fruity rainbow five hour energy shots treat your taste buds to an explosion of fruity flavor.

With a tasty caffeine kick.

That's right.

Caffeine just got a flavor upgrade.

And it's not just one flavor.

Five hour energy shots bring you tasty caffeine and 17 flavors.

17.

So if you're craving that candy flavored chaos.

But actually want energy that works?

Grab fruity rainbow five hour energy shots.

Pocket sized, zero sugar, big flavor.
