WEBVTT - What Are The Celtics Doing?

0:00:00.280 --> 0:00:05.039
<v Speaker 1>Another franchise that is in dire straits, the Boston Celtics.

0:00:05.440 --> 0:00:06.320
<v Speaker 2>A little bit of news.

0:00:06.720 --> 0:00:11.360
<v Speaker 1>Josh only Heat highlights Richardson. You know, Josh Richardson. They

0:00:11.400 --> 0:00:13.520
<v Speaker 1>show how good he is, you know, they show his

0:00:13.600 --> 0:00:15.880
<v Speaker 1>three and D and it's always him in the Heat uniform.

0:00:15.960 --> 0:00:16.720
<v Speaker 2>Do you ever notice that?

0:00:16.880 --> 0:00:17.279
<v Speaker 1>Right? Yeah?

0:00:17.360 --> 0:00:18.360
<v Speaker 2>No, that's yeah.

0:00:18.800 --> 0:00:22.040
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, do they not have access to any

0:00:22.120 --> 0:00:26.479
<v Speaker 1>other Josh Richardson b roll than this? Like they don't

0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:28.960
<v Speaker 1>ever use him in a MAVs uniform ever?

0:00:29.080 --> 0:00:32.360
<v Speaker 2>Because whatever editor's back there, if they see Josh Richardson Heat,

0:00:32.520 --> 0:00:34.880
<v Speaker 2>like if it's like tag that, there's a way better

0:00:34.920 --> 0:00:36.400
<v Speaker 2>chance that it's going to be a positive highlights.

0:00:37.840 --> 0:00:40.040
<v Speaker 1>He's now signed a two year deal with the Celtics.

0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:44.800
<v Speaker 1>That's good, right, I know, the delusional Celtics.

0:00:44.280 --> 0:00:46.040
<v Speaker 2>Fans are excited. They're like, oh.

0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:50.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Macus Smartt, he got a deal. Robert Williams, he

0:00:50.479 --> 0:00:53.680
<v Speaker 3>gets a deal. Oh yeah, baby, three and D. Josh

0:00:53.800 --> 0:00:57.320
<v Speaker 3>Richardson only twenty four million dollars over the next two years.

0:00:57.400 --> 0:01:00.760
<v Speaker 3>What a bargain. Q The duck boats being ship a

0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:04.520
<v Speaker 3>coming for us. Yeah, that'll put you over the nets.

0:01:04.600 --> 0:01:06.560
<v Speaker 3>The Bucks and the Hawks and the Knicks. I mean,

0:01:07.120 --> 0:01:08.120
<v Speaker 3>Boston fans don't like.

0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:13.520
<v Speaker 2>Hearing this, but like you went from manager at Staples.

0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:18.720
<v Speaker 1>To assistant manager at Staples like Fournier is. It's a

0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:23.319
<v Speaker 1>downgrade from Fournier to Josh Ritzerson and from Kemba to

0:01:23.440 --> 0:01:26.640
<v Speaker 1>Dennis Shrewder. You literally got a demotion and you're trying

0:01:26.680 --> 0:01:28.640
<v Speaker 1>to say, you know, it was more of like a

0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:32.440
<v Speaker 1>lateral move, you know, right, yeah, this is more it's

0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:35.760
<v Speaker 1>just like okay, and they're trying to feed us this

0:01:35.880 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 1>bullshit and it's.

0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:40.199
<v Speaker 2>Like, we know what your plans are. It's Bradley Beal.

0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:42.520
<v Speaker 2>That's all you care about is Bradley Beal.

0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:46.039
<v Speaker 1>Josh Richardson is just another pretty little trade chip. He's good,

0:01:46.360 --> 0:01:49.760
<v Speaker 1>just just good enough to get a team like the

0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:53.559
<v Speaker 1>Washington Wizards to bite on his potential because pat Riley

0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:57.880
<v Speaker 1>liked him three years ago. I mean, we got got Jimmy,

0:01:57.920 --> 0:02:00.000
<v Speaker 1>but obviously they wouldn't a trade him.

0:02:00.000 --> 0:02:02.559
<v Speaker 2>They were like basically holding out for Josh.

0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:04.880
<v Speaker 1>They're like, oh, yeah, he don't want to get rid

0:02:04.960 --> 0:02:07.280
<v Speaker 1>of Josh richards He's the new Tyler hero in the

0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:10.120
<v Speaker 1>sense of like a guy not nearly as good as that.

0:02:10.160 --> 0:02:12.320
<v Speaker 1>He wants you to believe they just hold onto these

0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:14.360
<v Speaker 1>assets to make you think that they're good, and they're

0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:17.399
<v Speaker 1>not that good. But like someone will fall for Josh

0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:19.560
<v Speaker 1>Richardson maybe being a three and D guy, just like

0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:22.320
<v Speaker 1>just like the MAVs did. He was an interesting little

0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:24.840
<v Speaker 1>player for the Sixers. This is what Brad Stephen said.

0:02:25.440 --> 0:02:29.639
<v Speaker 1>We feel fortunate to be able to extend Josh. He's

0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:33.960
<v Speaker 1>a talented offensive player, a versatile defender, plays with an

0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:38.520
<v Speaker 1>edge and a toughness that Boston fans will love. Boston

0:02:38.560 --> 0:02:40.680
<v Speaker 1>fans are gonna boost some Josh Richardson, I tell you what,

0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:44.440
<v Speaker 1>and when he goes three for eighteen, they are going

0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:45.840
<v Speaker 1>to booshit out of him.

0:02:45.880 --> 0:02:46.560
<v Speaker 2>I promise you that.

0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:46.799
<v Speaker 1>No.

0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:49.359
<v Speaker 2>Certainly, the translation of what Brad really was.

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:53.680
<v Speaker 1>Meaning is that he is the perfect middlelevel exception to

0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:56.520
<v Speaker 1>add to a package to entice a team that, oh,

0:02:56.880 --> 0:02:58.280
<v Speaker 1>we'll give you a Josh.

0:02:57.960 --> 0:02:59.000
<v Speaker 2>And Marcus Smart.

0:02:59.480 --> 0:03:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Maybe Robert Williams rim protector three and D guy, very

0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:05.480
<v Speaker 1>tough glue guy, and Marcus Smart he.

0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:07.960
<v Speaker 2>Can defend off the bench. What do you think Brad

0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Buil wants out? All these guys are fucking great and

0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:13.560
<v Speaker 2>did a little research.

0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:17.240
<v Speaker 1>Smart plus Richards and plus Williams forty one million dollars.

0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:20.680
<v Speaker 1>Bradley Beal's salary thirty seven million dollars.

0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:23.720
<v Speaker 2>So why do you think.

0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:26.080
<v Speaker 1>Marcus Smart added a one million dollar kicker into his

0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:29.280
<v Speaker 1>contract extension if he gets traded? Because he knows he's

0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:29.960
<v Speaker 1>getting traded.

0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:30.840
<v Speaker 2>That's how.

0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:33.880
<v Speaker 1>That's how he's like, YO, if you're gonna get me

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:35.960
<v Speaker 1>out of this bitch, you might as well fucking pay me.

0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:39.840
<v Speaker 1>In other words, Brad Stevens is hoping and wishing and

0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:44.400
<v Speaker 1>praying that he's gonna get Bradley Beal without costing him

0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:49.000
<v Speaker 1>Jalen because not Jalen, anything but Jalen.

0:03:50.120 --> 0:03:51.800
<v Speaker 2>But what if Bradley Beal doesn't want to go?

0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:56.200
<v Speaker 1>What if they got all of those pieces they extended,

0:03:56.240 --> 0:04:00.760
<v Speaker 1>all of those mediocre guys. We'll say, no shade, but

0:04:00.800 --> 0:04:03.720
<v Speaker 1>they're mediocre, right, Like they're not as good as the

0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:05.960
<v Speaker 1>pieces that they had before, which also really didn't fit

0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:07.920
<v Speaker 1>that well together to begin with, and weren't that good,

0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:10.600
<v Speaker 1>So they're less than they were. What if they have

0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:12.600
<v Speaker 1>all those pieces on a two year, three year deal

0:04:13.160 --> 0:04:16.560
<v Speaker 1>and then brad doesn't want to leave, then you just

0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:21.520
<v Speaker 1>got guys that you just got guys locked up fucked.

0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:22.760
<v Speaker 2>A team that can't win right now.

0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:25.360
<v Speaker 1>If they're locked into Richardson and Smart for two more

0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:28.120
<v Speaker 1>years and then they can't win, then either that leaves

0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:33.560
<v Speaker 1>what twenty twenty four like, that's when Jalen's final year

0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:34.640
<v Speaker 1>of his contract is.

0:04:34.960 --> 0:04:37.360
<v Speaker 2>That's with Tatum with one year left on his deal.

0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:41.520
<v Speaker 1>Think about Jalen in an expiring and Tatum with one

0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:45.279
<v Speaker 1>year left on his deal, and they're like, I.

0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:49.000
<v Speaker 2>Don't know about the direction of where we're headed. That

0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:50.279
<v Speaker 2>would be funny to see them win.

0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:54.800
<v Speaker 1>It's just like, oh my god, the math just doesn't

0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:57.240
<v Speaker 1>add up. The Celtics need to win, and they need

0:04:57.279 --> 0:04:59.560
<v Speaker 1>to win now, because we know what it's like when

0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:03.200
<v Speaker 1>players don't feel that their team has a sense of

0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:06.039
<v Speaker 1>urgency and it doesn't appear that there is a sense

0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:09.320
<v Speaker 1>of urgency. They have no backup plan. It's just Brad

0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Beuele or Bust I fucking love it. I hate the Celtics.

0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:14.920
<v Speaker 1>I say, I don't hate the Celtics, but I do.

0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:18.320
<v Speaker 1>They're a piece of shit franchise. I love the two

0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:22.000
<v Speaker 1>js and they don't deserve this. I like Marcus Smart,

0:05:22.120 --> 0:05:25.680
<v Speaker 1>but I don't like Brad Stevens, and I don't like

0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:28.919
<v Speaker 1>the arrogance of the Celtics organization, and I do like

0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:31.520
<v Speaker 1>that this team is in real fucking trouble, putting all

0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:34.359
<v Speaker 1>their eggs in a Bradbuel basket. And you know what,

0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:38.960
<v Speaker 1>bull move, Cotton. Let's see how that plays out for you.
