Brian talks to the Boston Herald’s Zack Cox about the Celtics’ frustrating inconsistencies, which were on display in their loss to the Rockets on Monday night. They also talk about the differences between this year’s team and last year’s, Jayson Tatum’s slump, who might buy the Celtics, and more (0:45). Then, Brian discusses the Patriots’ latest coaching hires and what he thinks of them (41:00). Brian ends with some listener calls before he and Jamie compare the Chiefs’ current run to the Patriots’ dynasty (56:10).
