00:00so here's how i would put it keith i would say jalen brown won pregame which i know no celtics
00:07fans agree with yeah jalen brown won the pregame which i don't get he won like the viral moment to
00:13start the game in my estimation i know a lot of celtics fans think he's a child now all of
00:18a sudden
00:18but like don't you want rivalries don't do you want everybody to get along to aau it's too buddy
00:25buddy that's me that's what i think everybody loves each other everybody's friends and they
00:29all share an agent and they all were on an aau team together and they all were buddies since they
00:33were
00:3414 and it's too buddy buddy of a league then there's some actual hatred and people are like child
00:39child grow up no i i love it in fact there was a uh a series of i think it
00:45was upper deck cards in
00:46the early 90s they had a rivalries set where they would take two players and they'd be like these
00:52guys hated each other these guys hated each other like throughout the thing i forget who they even
00:56were it was like larry burton chuck person or something it was like a whole but it was awesome
01:00and that's how many there were now was there two nbc sports boston was showing larry burton spiking a
01:05basketball off dr j's face guys they're fighting on the court no i'd like but like you want to be
01:10a
01:10child let me throw a basketball off your face it's like a marcus smart move like i mean come on
01:15yeah
01:15and this guy just didn't want to tatum's so fake he comes over like nothing is wrong hey what's up
01:20man
01:21and jalen's like i'm not doing it no and it's not like jalen i don't think like yeah stared him
01:26down or gave many evil look or anything like that spinning a ball on his finger he's just like i'm
01:30not doing it exactly this he's like this fake a-hole who didn't want me here right i'm not playing
01:36his
01:36game jalen won pregame i think i know all celtics fans don't agree with it i agree with it you
01:40love
01:41the celtics so fine jalen won pregame and then lost everything else after that it was a bloodbath
01:46after that it couldn't have gone worse he did nothing well the problem for jalen is he handled pregame
01:50i think perfectly me too but you gotta back that up and he didn't even approach backing that up so
01:56we knew there was a chance that brown would be too hyped up and i thought it might mean like
02:01a slow
02:01start i did not envision wire to wire no horrible game either i thought foul trouble was in play
02:06exactly what happened there and i thought maybe a little too overly amped on offense but like
02:11he was horrible and then dribble and then with tatum you're like tatum's too good of a player that like
02:15i think he is going to be good and i also i i thought you were going to get some
02:20of this stuff where
02:20he's kind of making gestures more to the crowd right like he's not getting in brown's face because
02:25again according to him publicly there's no beef so publicly he can't get in his face and he's going
02:31to dap him up before the game because we're buds we're still buds we've always been buds yeah i didn't
02:35want him trade his mind i didn't want him traded that's not me but you know and i know what
02:39we you
02:39know we just played him post game and like hey this is a win and blah blah like no it
02:43it means a lot
02:44to him that they had that kind of performance and obviously the team wins really important because the
02:48sixers are a team that you probably will face in the playoffs and so that is that is a big
02:53win
02:53anyway but i mean to kind of embarrass jalen brown the way they did got to mean a little something
03:00extra well i think so too and i think if we're just sticking to pregame here for a moment and
03:04i know
03:04there was much more to it and again jalen was awful like i mean i i know jalen has trouble
03:09dribbling
03:09he does but it hasn't changed it reverted to like four years ago jalen struggling to dribble like it
03:14was awful all the way around warriors uh finals but here's here's what you can't do you can't be
03:21like oh my god it was so awesome when kevin garnett ignored ray ray allen fake ray allen comes over
03:28to
03:28kg like nothing's wrong kg's like and he tries to dap him up and garnett won't even make eye contact
03:34come over by me you can't say that's cool yeah and that's awesome and that's an alpha move alpha
03:40yeah and then turn around and be like jalen's a child and trust me i took a ratio to remember
03:45last night on twitter no celtics fans like my take that jalen alpha'd him last night yeah and
03:49i've been getting explanations up and down that no no no see what happened is ray left the celtics
03:56and went to a rival and jalen was traded so it's not the same as kg and ray this one's
04:01worse
04:01this one wanted to be here jalen brown wanted to be here tatum traded him yeah so this was worse
04:08bill simmons has this viral video going around now where he's like tatum is in a divorce tatum is
04:13the guy who uh you know is on to his next girlfriend and kept the house and he's happy with
04:19the kids and
04:19he just wishes the best for jalen and jalen's the angry dad living in a condo in philly blah blah
04:24blah
04:24right okay this is the simmons analogy i'm like no no no no no the proper analogy is tatum threw
04:29the
04:29ex-wife out of the house yeah he said go find another place to live who cheated on who right
04:34who cheated
04:34on who you're missing a big part you're missing a giant part of the analogy the problem for jalen
04:39no he put all of his energy into pregame and looking cool and you know getting the best of
04:45tatum pregame and then the rest of it was a complete and utter disaster yeah i forgot about
04:49the game kind of backfired no i'm just gonna go back i wouldn't be consistent i like rivalries
04:53in sports we talk about how they're kind of dying a little bit with it it's gotten ramped back up
04:57red
04:57socks yankees thanks in large part to cam schlittler which i say like i don't like him
05:01no but that's good it's good for the rivalry that's really good stuff and so you know you
05:05look around the leagues and there there seems to be fewer and fewer of them these guys are getting
05:09paid zillions of dollars i think they all realize that they're like hey we don't need to we don't
05:12need to fight we're all we're all getting paid here so let's just go out there and have a game
05:16and
05:16you're like i don't know it means a little bit more when there's hatred and i feel like there really
05:20was even philly i i wasn't sure how philly like how closely they've paid attention to all this
05:25that mean the fans there but you could tell right away like tatum got the ball and they're like
05:30all over tatum like that's great yeah and if the southx fans want to do that when brown comes back
05:35oh great jalen's gonna he's gonna get it when he gets here and honestly the way he's carried
05:40himself he fully deserves it but that's good speaking how he carried himself jalen post game
05:45let me down i think of course i think he started okay yeah no he was not but he did
05:50not explain
05:51himself well let's get a quick exchange here from jalen after the game and then we get some of these
05:54phone calls a lot of you waiting patiently at 617-779-7937 here's jalen after the game which
05:59admittedly was pretty weak obviously didn't go the way you or the team wanted to tonight got in a
06:04little bit of early foul trouble how did that kind of prevent you from getting going the way you may
06:09have wanted to yeah it got into some early foul trouble but um no excuse i think we got outplayed
06:15tonight they executed they shot the hell out of the ball and um you gotta give them credit you almost
06:20come into this one too amped up like what were your emotions when you got on the floor going in
06:24i felt good i felt fine i felt athletic um just got those two early fouls that kind of
06:31distorted my rhythm throughout the whole game and kind of struggled to get it back but you know we
06:36we had opportunities to get back into the game we were you know um within it was a tie game
06:41at one
06:41point um and then uh you know they shot the hell out of the ball executed well um we got
06:46to get better
06:47it looked like jason tried to greet you before tip off did he say anything to you or you know
06:51it
06:51looked like you didn't want anything to do with that i'm just focused on coming out and doing
06:56what's best for my team okay um everything else was just uh to be honest i wasn't paying attention
07:02but oh you know credit to jason he played well tonight credit to the celtics they executed
07:08they shot the hell out of the ball and they were the better team tonight he's like where my fraud
07:12antennas go up i mean spinning the ball on my finger pretending i don't know tatum's there that's
07:16what's best for me in the team report was he's preparing for war before the game i didn't see him
07:20like come on like like effectively like i didn't see him over there he grabbed you around the arm
07:25and chest what are you talking about come on jalen like if you're gonna play the game and i'm a
07:29six
07:30foot nine man walking towards you that's jason tatum if you're gonna play the stay ready yeah yes he
07:35did yeah he said check ball stay ready stay ready like a jay's ready jalen if you're gonna play the
07:39game i like that you play the game i like how you handled that i do too after the game
07:44you can't be like
07:45i didn't even know he was there i i wasn't i wasn't really even paying attention i was just so
07:48locked
07:48in on the game get out of here like that i mean you want to talk about full of crap
07:51just doing
07:52what's best for the team full of crap on that one so i i can't possibly defend jalen on that
07:56nor how
07:56he played last night no once the game started he lost the entire time josh is in new hampshire on
08:03that pregame interaction tatum and brown what you think josh hey jones and keith good to hear you guys
08:08today um yeah i mean i just i just think it proves for years that it was just fake love
08:12between those two
08:13and um i don't see i don't really see like the next three games in the regular season going like
08:18that like maxi was really the only one that showed up so you see it going towards philly i guess
08:24is
08:24what he's saying i i i think philly's better than they showed last night yeah i do think you could
08:29see some of the holes though potentially in philly's game meaning mbd looks like a thousand years old
08:35lebron james looks heavy lebron is a thousand years old yeah he is yeah anybody looks heavy he does
08:40and no no lift on that guy anymore no and there was one of the i got to the hoop
08:44and like laid it
08:44in with the left hand and like i was at after that was after he got dunked on by tatum
08:48right which was
08:49sick he got dunked on by tatum and then he just like laid it in you're like oh he could
08:52dunk you're
08:53like oh he can't it's like yeah he's like he's like a soft little lefty layup no maxi maxi's awesome
08:59and they're gonna need jalen brown to be a lot better obviously um i so i sort of disagree when
09:05he's
09:05like their whole relationship was fake i don't think that's true i think their relationship
09:11changed you're gonna hear from shams coming up we're gonna play some pregame audio from shams
09:15where it changed after jalen got the mvp if anybody's jealous of anyone it's tatum is jealous
09:19of jalen brown he's jealous he won finals mvp but that happened what like seven years
09:23of their career you know what i'm saying so like everything before that they were fine no
09:27fine yeah we always said we always said that these guys have different interests and they're
09:33probably not friends off the court but that doesn't really matter like i don't think jordan
09:36and pippen were like hanging out i think actually famously they didn't right like they they weren't
09:40like best buds jordan was playing golf with like barkley and like other guys not pippen age age
09:46right exactly so yeah so they didn't need to be best buds but i think they got along and then
09:51they
09:51knew that they were good for each other on the court and then obviously yeah things change when jalen
09:55brown's the mvp
