Chapter 2: What are the implications of Jaylen Brown's comments for the Celtics?
you saying this is the best year of your career is whether you mean for it or not, it's going to be taken like this. It could, you know, hurt some feelings of people that matter. Like the, is there, do we think you want to clarify that? My guess is even if he was like, no, I said it, I want to stand by it. I don't think it would be as I'm tripling down.
Yeah.
But because it was... I've evaluated.
I've thought in my head. Yeah, this is really how I feel. My favorite season.
And so it was... So I don't... The only tricky part is this, DeMonte. What if Giannis isn't available? Either because he gets traded elsewhere or Milwaukee somehow just says we're keeping him. Can you get fair value for Jalen Brown without Giannis being on the other side of it? That's the part I don't know. I don't know. And so I think we got to wait and see. Okay, there's the Jalen Brown piece.

Including a recent episode with Mark Lamont Hill waxing all about crack in the 80s. To be clear, 84 was big to me, not just because of crack. I'm down to talk about crack all day, but just so y'all know. I mean, at this point, Mark, this is the second episode where we've discussed crack. So I'm starting to see that there's a through line.
We also have eggs on the table right now.
Thank you for finishing that sentence. Yes. I don't think there's a more important year for black people. Really? Yeah.

Anthony says, what was the first moment slash game where you thought LeBron had a real chance to be the GOAT?
Listen, I think this is probably the same for everyone that spends real time thinking about it. The first time where you're like, holy shit, I might be watching the guy, the greatest player of all time, was the 48th special against Detroit.
when 22-year-old LeBron James scored 29 of his team's final 30 points to take control of the series against the Pistons that he had no business winning en route to the NBA Finals in 07.
