  • Let's bring in them on my man.

  • The big perk himself.

  • But look, Stephen a Well, we just Well, we witness last night with the Denver Nuggets is the new generation of basketball, and I blame the analytics.

  • Okay, because these players brains are programmed.

  • Look at this.

  • You get a defensive stop right when it matters the most.

  • Get the rebound.

  • You're out on a break.

  • You have the numbers and watch it pause.

  • All the players were allergic to going inside the three point line.

  • This is what they're teaching that training count.

  • This is what they're teaching.

  • That practice is the right sprint, the floor and space behind the three point line.

  • And this just is a shame right here.

  • But this is I'm not generation, and they cost them the game the Devil Nuggets are having.

  • They had to nightmares last night, one about that play and the other one was about Bradley Bill.

  • Well, Bradley Bill is a is a walking nightmare for everybody.

  • Thank God, he's an All Star This year.

  • He is flat out ball.

  • He's been spectacular, but let me transition to some folks that have not been spectacular.

  • That's your former team, the Boston Celtics.

  • They're losers of three straight.

  • You do post game for the Boston Celtics.

  • You did so the other night, and you had some very, very direct and candid comments about the Boston Celtics.

  • I want you to remind the national audience out here what you have to say about the Boston Celtics, because they're not looking too good right now.

  • And I'm looking at Brad Stevens.

  • I'm not gonna lie to you.

  • I'm looking at Brad Stevens.

  • Your thoughts.

  • Yeah, of course.

  • Look, we're talking about the City of Champions, Alright?

  • I played in Boston for 8.5 years, and the word accountability comes to mind.

  • And right now the Celtics are lacking that when you look at them offensively, it's too much.

  • My term.

  • Basketball.

  • Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown taking tough contested tools.

  • Tough contested threes.

  • You look at role players playing outside of their road.

  • Tristan Thompson trying to go between his legs at the elbow and show people he got the complete package.

  • No, that is not your role, Daniel Tight pulling up in transition earlier in the shot clock.

  • I blame Brad and defense.

  • Please, let's not talk about defense.

  • Everyone has their weight against the Boston Celtics.

  • It's been seven straight games where guys has had 30 or more points against them.

  • One individual and one by the name of Gallinari, who's older than me had 38 the other night.

  • Brad Stevens has to be held accountable.

  • I remember a time when we were in Boston and Doc Rivers had the youngest team in the league and we lost 18 in a row.

  • Paul Pierce was nowhere to be found.

  • He was hurt and the fans were chanting five year 50.5 year dot And here it is.

  • Brad Stevens, you've got You've been having both of your All Stars, Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown for majority of the season and your two games below 500 unaccepted.

  • What about folks that will sit up there and say, Marcus Smart hasn't been in the lineup?

  • Kimball Walker's playing but his knees not right.

  • What about those who would throw out that excuse or even go upstairs and look at Danny?

  • Agents say you haven't given Brad Stevens enough for me.

  • That's not acceptable because this team should be better than a below 500 teams.

  • But there are people out there that are using that as an excuse to bypass what Brad Stevens is not doing at this particular moment in time.

  • And you know what?

  • It's ridiculous, and I'm gonna go to your New York Knicks for a second because you should be proud.

  • And the Boston Celtics roster is better than the New York Knicks.

  • And right now, Tom Thibodeau got the New York Knicks plan exceptional basketball for what he got.

  • He's working with less and getting more.

  • If you take Tom Thibodeau and put him on the Boston Celtics right now, they record will be totally different.

  • There will be a top three team in the Eastern Conference, so don't come give me this baloney about Marcus.

  • Smart being out.

  • Kemba Walker Not looking healthy.

  • You still have both two guys that are averaging close to 26 points tonight.

  • Your two all stars have been on the court, so there's no excuse along with attrition.

  • Thompson, who is battle tested and giving you 88 tonight along with another guy like the Greg Williams and Robert Williams who have showed us flashes, uh, that he's gonna be the future center of this.

  • Okay, so I don't want to hear.

  • All right.

  • Well, big perk.

  • Got to ask you this, though.

  • Three times in the last four years, Brad Stevens has gotten them to the conference finals.

  • So when we talk about him being on the hot seat, which is what What?

  • Both you and I said, I ain't gonna leave you hanging on this.

  • But are you saying this could be the last year for Brad Stevens?

  • That that needs to be considered if I turn around doesn't transpire.

  • Is that where you're going with this?

  • That it is because I'm not looking at what was done in the past.

  • I'm looking at the now, and the now tells me that he does not have the attention of his two young stars, Jalen Brown and Jason Taylor.

  • Right now, in the way that they're playing, it seems like they're tuning them out.

  • So with that being said, I don't care what he did the last three or four years I'm talking about right now.
