Gary Washburn

Really could be 4-0 if not for that 29-point blown lead in the opener on a Tuesday afternoon in Detroit, but could just as easily not be 3-1 either, given the fact that the Celtics had every opportunity to not beat the Nets the other night and still came away with that Jason Tatum buzzer beater in ot nonetheless so that was good so you know we'll focus on the good things and talk about just what we've seen from this team so far but God, I hate doing this.

We did this with Gary Washburn, who joined us last week to begin the show, but what's going on in the Celtics universe, or as you termed it just as we were coming on, very soap opera-y, as the Jays turn, we can't stop.

They can't stop, and so I don't want to stop.

I know Ev, in many ways, feels like he's over it, and that's okay.

Well, you got to own it.

Gary Washburn is the

guy who voted AI in 2000 instead of Shaq.

Yeah.

And he was asked about it.

Gary Washburn, our good mate, I wanted to ask him about his tweet deck.

I had the opportunity and he walked past me and it just came and went so quickly.

But our good mate Gazza asked Jason Tatum about like the sense of, are you trying to get back to pre-injury Jason Tatum or are you becoming like more comfortable with the post-injury? It was a strange question, but I like what he said, which is just like, I worked really, really hard to get back to this point.

Or maybe the previous caller, I guess, did.

But then it was Washburn's turn, and I like this, too.

Do you have the full Washburn question? This is number three, John.

Jalen, do y'all just need to sit in the room privately, maybe have some ruffles or

something?

So he originally had cut it out.

His original question, they went to Washburn, and Washburn said, I have two questions.

I have one about the game, but back to the Tatum thing.
