Brian shares his takeaways from the Celtics’ beatdown of the Knicks in MSG, including why he is confident in the Celtics’ chances in a potential playoff matchup with the Knicks, Jayson Tatum’s stellar play, Derrick White as a bellwether for the team, and why the Celts are set up with Tatum for years to come (0:45). Then, Brian and Jamie end with a listener email on the Patriots (50:35).
