The full post-trade deadline edition of The Christian Arcand Show from Monday, August 3rd, 2026.
Lots of prospects were given up for Adley Rutschman, but if the idea was to make the 2026 Red Sox better, then that bridge can be crossed later.Then, Craig Breslow spoke about the trade deadline and felt pretty convinced about the moves he made.And, Anthony Eyanson and Kyson Witherspoon were dealt because of the pitching development Breslow trusts which everyone might need to start trusting too.
The show starts right as the trade deadline ends and the Red Sox were aggressive in making the deals they wanted. How shocking was it to see Craig Breslow not sit on his hands and get the trades he wanted done?Then, Marcelo Mayer's tenure in Boston is over and it sure sounds like the Sox didn't want anything to do with him which is why a reliever was the return.And, it may have been an overpay for the Sox to acquire Adley Rutschman, but that's the price it takes to make a World Series contending team.
It feels like a long time ago now that the big 3 Red Sox prospects were the focus of the team and now they've all underwhelmed. What about that time was influential in today's deadline moves?Then, Rob Bradford joins live in studio to give his thoughts on the acquisition of Adley Rutschman and the departure of Marcelo Mayer.And, Bradfo emphasizes that the purpose of overpaying for Rutschman among other moves is to legitimately go for the World Series.
Most of the response to the Adley Rutschman trade is discontent for the haul the Red Sox had to give up. Are fans too focused on the prospects because of many years of lackluster trade deadlines?Also, its time to gear up for a legit playoff run and there aren't any more excuses as to why the Sox can't do it.And, it may be the trade deadline, but the dongs will never be moved in tonight's Dong Report.
Players may be traded, but the dongs never go anywhere as its time for another edition of The Dong Report.
Its been years of players wanting help from the front office; well they got it and now its on the Red Sox clubhouse to keep their winning ways going and make a deep playoff run.
Its been a long day for Bradfo and he ends it in studio recapping the trade deadline for the Red Sox and using the World Series expectations as the reasons for the haul they gave up for Adley Rutschman.
It feels like a long time ago from when the Red Sox hyped up the Big 3 of Roman Anthony, Marcelo Mayer, and Kristian Campbell and now to avoid anything like that the trade of Adley Rutschman was made.
Lots of people wanted to ship Craig Breslow out of town, but the moves he made today at the trade deadline might've garnered some support especially with the pitching development he's trotted out.
The Red Sox main roster got stronger with Adley Rutschman added and without subtracting a ton from that roster, you can call the moves Craig Breslow made a success.
Right before the deadline, the Sox shocked everyone by trading away Marcelo Mayer for a reliever which feels like a signal that they were just done waiting for Mayer to get better.
It was an aggressive trade deadline for Craig Breslow and the big price he paid to get Adley Rutschman was much different from what he's done as CBO which should be considered a victory.
Dan Bahl and Stiz continue the show questioning what position the Red Sox should prioritize when making moves before the trade deadline. The two of them then share their thoughts on Drake Maye and A.J. Brown so far in training camp. Mike Dussault then joins the show to discuss the latest on Patriots training camp. And Dan questions if you the Patriots can rock with 6 wide receivers.
With Dan Bahl filling in for Christian Arcand joined by Stiz, the two react to Jarren Duran with yet another on the field problem. Is he tanking his own stock if the Red Sox are planning on trading him? Do you blame Chad Tracy at all for Jarren Duran's actions? What does Alex Cora think of the Red Sox right now?
We know how the Red Sox are doing, but what about the rest of the league. Are there teams slipping or gaining momentum? What does the rest of the Red Sox schedule look like? Dan then decides Josh's fantasy draft order for his fantasy football league this year. And what does tonight's matchup against the Dodgers look like?
What's the path for the rest of the season look like right now? Can the Red Sox stay hot for the remainder of it all?
We know how the Red Sox are doing, but what about teams like the Yankees? Could the Red Sox overtake teams like them?
Mike Dussault joins the show to discuss with Dan the most recent updates on Patriots training camp. How has the O-Line looked so far and where is he at when it comes to Drake Maye and A.J. Brown?
Dan and Stiz continue the show with their opinions on Drake Maye and A.J. Brown during training camp. Will Drake Maye be able to put up the same numbers as last year?
How much longer will Jarren Duran keep doing this? Is he going to learn from his mistakes with actions like this?
With Dan Bahl filling in for Christian Arcand along side Stiz for the our, the two react to Jarren Duran who once again had an on the field problem.
With Dan Bahl in for Christian Arcand, the show starts joined by WEEI's Stiz and the two of them praise Will Flemming and his calls on the Red Sox broadcasts. Then they take their focus to Roman Anthony, but question where his focus is at? A lot of people are starting to call for Roman Anthony to be traded, but why? Is it the injury, his mentality, or are people just not high on him. And Stiz mentions what has changed about the Red Sox since he started working at WEEI.
Dan Bahl continues todays show by saying whether or not he believes the Christian Gonzalez contract is a done deal. Jon Lyons joins the show to give Dan the latest on Patriots training camp. How has the wide receivers looked so far. What about Caleb Lomu? And does Jon Lyons think the Gonzo contract is done? And Roman Anthony has finally started swinging a bat! What does this mean for the Boston Red Sox?
WEEI's Jon Lyons joins Dan Bahl to give him the latest on Patriots training camp. How has Kayshon Boutte looked so far? What about the connection of Drake Maye and A.J. Brown? What does he think about Christian Gonzalez at training camp?
Dan Bahl questions if the Christian Gonzalez deal is done already. Dan Bahl might think so based on what Christian Gonzalez has done in training camp so far.
Fans are eager to trade Roman Anthony, but why? Is it becuase of the injury, him going out so much, or do people no longer think he no longer will be "that guy".
With Dan Bahl in for Christian Arcand joined by WEEI's Stiz for the hour, Dan asks where Roman Anthony's focus is right now and react to what Craig Breslow said on The Greg Hill show about Roman Anthony.

Arcand continues the show questioning the Red Sox medical staff and why we simply can not get anything in order when it comes to our players. Who should the Red Sox move now that Curtis Mead is hurt and now headed back to Boston to see a hand specialist? A.J. Brown so far loves New England, but maybe he hasn't been looking that good. And Arcand might have a new favorite musician, Jerry Reed!
Arcand starts off the show with his thoughts on what Christian Gonzalez had said about Robert Kraft and his extension situation. Did this completely back fire on Robert Kraft? Breaking news comes in that Curtis Mead has a broken hand and has been placed on the IL, what does this mean for the Red Sox going forward? Do they need to make another move?
With Curtis Mead down, it may seem like the Red Sox need to go out and make another move, but that means someone has to go. Who should that person or those people be?
What is up with the Red Sox medical staff? Why does we constantly have an issue with injuries and not knowing what's right and wrong?
Arcand reacts to the breaking news that Curtis Mead has been placed on IL with a broken wrist, but didn't the Red Sox say the X-Rays came back negative yesterday?
Christian Arcand starts off the show reacting to Christian Gonzalez speaking after Patriots training camp and how Kraft talking about Gonzo's contract completely backfired on him.
Christian Arcand continues the show with questioning if Devon Witherspoon is actually the one waiting for Christian Gonzalez to sign his extension. Not many people have mentioned it, but we still Mack Hollins on this Patriots roster. What's the latest on Drake Maye in training camp and what is going on down at UNC and Michael Lombardi? Did Jayson Tatum break the hearts of all Celtics fans with what he said about not wanting to be the smartest guy in the room?
Christian Arcand starts off today's show with his reaction to the Red Sox trading for Curtis Mead and telling everyone how he likes the trade. Does Craig Breslow need to get more comfortable when it comes to taking risks? What is Craig Breslow's philosophy going forward with this team? And should the team make a big splash before the trade deadline?
Did Jayson Tatum ruin everyone's belief with what he said about not wanting to be the smartest person in the room? Does this mean there was beef between him and Jaylen Brown?
Many people believe that Christian Gonzalez is waiting for Devon Witherspoon to sign his extension, but what if Devon Witherspoon is actually waiting for Christian Gonzalez to sign first?
What moves are still to come for the Boston Red Sox? Should Breslow be more risky right now as the trade deadline approaches us?
Christian Arcand starts todays show with his reaction to the Red Sox trading Connelly Early for Curtis Mead. Do you like this trade? Well Arcand does and he'll tell you all about it!
We're still on the heels of the Red Sox end of their 15-game winning streak which still feels unreal for this team to do. Did the horrible start of the season help make this streak more enjoyable?Then, every moment during this winning streak had fans going nuts for even the simplest of things at Fenway.And, its been years since any GM for the Sox made a huge splash at the deadline and Craig Breslow may be the unlikely guy to do it, but there should be an attempt at a big acquisition this trade deadline.
In the midst of the 15-game winning streak from the Red Sox, they won in every which way to show the contenders they should be. Do you take the Sox seriously for the playoffs and even championships?Then, speculation about why Tom Brady is getting involved with the WWE and a review of the Weird Al concert in the Arcand Fire.And, it may be a small slate of games, but enough to present you with The Dong Report.
Now that the Red sox winning streak is over, to time to start thinking realistically about the trade deadline. Do we trust that Craig Breslow and company will actually be serious about making a big splash?Then, Chris Smith from MassLive joins the show and gives his thoughts on if the Sox will buy and how unique this winning streak was.And, Sox prospect Justin Gonzales got into a fight after hitting a home run and reminds us of the hoss he is.
Patriots will be taking the field at Training Camp soon and nobody should be worrying about how AJ Brown fits in the offense or his health. However, how worried should we be about the Christian Gonzalez situation?Then, we have an update about the mime who was arrested and another bar closure in tonight's New England Nightly News.And, Christian launches a new initiative after a story about a vintage sports jacket was found and sold.
With only five games on the schedule, that's enough to go through and present The Dong Report.
A possible theory as to why Tom Brady is getting involved in professional wrestling, the reported issues with LeBron James & Adam silver, and Christian gives his review of the Weird Al Yankovic concert he went to in the Arcand Fire.
The mime who was arrested in Natick showed up in court while a popular restaurant and bar is officially closed in the New England Nightly News.
We are now days away from Patriots' training camp starting and there doesn't look to be any drama EXCEPT for the contract extension talks with Christian Gonzalez.
Red Sox writer for MassLive Chris Smith joins the show to reflect on the importance of the 15-game winning streak, if the Sox will indeed add somebody at the trade deadline, and updates on Roman Anthony and Marcelo Mayer.
With Craig Breslow and ownership still the way they are, no one is firmly saying the Red Sox will be aggressive buyers at the trade deadline when they probably should be.
Its felt like so many years since the Red Sox made a serious impactful splash at the trade deadline and fresh off the heels of their winning streak, the time is now for Craig Breslow to do that.
Reflecting on the Red Sox tying a franchise record with 15 consecutive wins was more improbable because the start of the season was so awful to begin with.
The full edition of The Christian Arcand Show from Tuesday, July 21st, 2026 following a Red Sox postponement.
The GOAT getting involved in professional wrestling, Cam Skattebo's fail at Fanatics Fest, and an MLB player who suffered maybe the worst injury a man could suffer in tonight's Arcand Fire.
From the "Play Tessie" podcast, Gordo joins the show to talk about who gets the most credit for the Red Sox turnaround, if Craig Breslow has saved his job with this winning streak, and how much more enjoyable days at Fenway are.
A recent article listed the type of trade it would take for certain Patriots' players, but are there guys that shouldn't even be given a value since they are untouchable?Then, training camp is only days away which means steam will pick up on Christian Gonzalez extension talks which have a chance of becoming ugly.And, Christian and producer Joe Braverman share their dream targets for the Red Sox at the trade deadline.
The final hour starts with Sean McAdam from MassLive joining the show to talk about the Red Sox and if their lineup will continue to hit when their season resumes tomorrow.Then, Adam Silver spoke about the NBA's salary cap second apron and Pat Riley hinted at continuing the pursuit of LeBron James among other topics in the Arcand Fire.And, what's the easiest way to make money as a teleprompter operator? Bet on the speeches you're working on in Clickbait.
Around the rest of the MLB, there was a deal made that doesn't quite affect the Sox, but could shape the kind of deals the Sox may make.Then, in the New England Nightly News, we get one step closer to daylight savings becoming permanent and an update on the local bar & restaurant scene in Boston.And, we look through NBC Boston's top five trade targets for the Sox and debate who they should actually go for.
From what articles are writing about how the Red Sox can keep their winning ways when they resume tomorrow, its all about getting guys back from injury. What is the true feeling about the Sox going into the second half of the season?Then, there are some big assets the Sox could sell off and get a great return on if they do decide to be sellers at the trade deadline which sound very tempting.And, John Henry finally expressed why he doesn't speak anymore, but his reasoning still doesn't make sense.
Christian talks about the schedule release for the Bruins, Adam Silver's thoughts on the NBA's 2nd apron of the salary cap, and comments from Pat Riley at Giannis' introductory press conference in the Arcand Fire.
Red Sox writer for MassLive Sean McAdam joins the show to share his thoughts on the All Star festivities, if the Red Sox will come out of the break as hot as they went in, and what Roman Anthony being sent down to Fort Myers really means.
One step closer to Daylight Savings becoming permanent and updates on some bars and restaurants in the Boston area discussed in the New England Nightly News.
Arcand and producer Joe Braverman share their top five trade deadline targets they wish the Red Sox could go after if they choose to buy.
A recent article listed the trade values for current Patriots' players and they list Drake Maye as being worth six first round picks, but there might be any deal worth giving Maye up for.
Red Sox owner John Henry finally addressed why he doesn't talk to the media, but just deflects and makes things unproductive versus what he thinks when he does.
Some articles list the Red Sox getting back into things only by getting Roman Anthony and Garrett Crochet back from injury which could set up for a big sell off at the trade deadline.
We got back to the Jaylen Brown trade and look at the timing of the deal and how soon it was into the offseason. When a player doesn't meet his trade value, he can be returned, but why did Brad Stevens feel the need to trade him?Then, LeBron James's free agency is consuming the NBA world currently, but wherever he goes and the news he makes isn't as important as it was in the past.And, a follow up story in the New England Nightly News about the explosive diarrhea sweeping the nation.
As of now, the Red Sox would be poised to be buyers at the trade deadline, but things can drastically change in less than three weeks. Do we really think Craig Breslow will fully buy and what benchmark could put the Sox back into the selling category?Then, another list has Drake Maye lower in the top 10 among quarterbacks in the NFL which shows that the league maybe agrees with Cam Newton that the Patriots are fool's gold.And, AJ Brown was ranked ninth among wide receivers in the NFL, but there is some big confidence that Brown will be moving up the rankings as the season goes along.
We do a full dive into baseball and the lackluster All Star Game that took place after a great Home run Derby. What was the big reason for the game being so boring?Then, Chris Cotillo from MassLive joins live in studio to discuss his All star experience and if we really should believe Willson Contreras when he says he wants to stay with the Red Sox.And, a new promo from MLB owners are focusing too much on the salary cap when they should really be focused on the salary floor.
We know the Red Sox are currently in a state to buy at the trade deadline, but the rest of the American League might make a big buy difficult to happen. What kind of move should the Sox make if they continue to be in buying territory?Then, trying to figure out the "person of conflict" from Mike McDonald in the Arcand Fire and giving out superlatives for the Red Sox in the 2026 season.And, the viral video of the elderly man who was attacked by a Bison at Yellowstone Park in Clickbait.
Christian, producer Joe Braverman, and video streamer Zach Coe share their award winners and superlatives for the Red Sox 2026 season.
Figuring out who this "person of conflict" is Mike Mcdonald is referencing, the MLB's proposal for players in the Olympics, and an update from the ESPYs in tonight's Arcand Fire.
In a follow up from last night, Massachusetts and the rest of the region may not be hit hard with cases of explosive diarrhea in tonight's New England Nightly News.
We've seen multiple reports now about previous Jaylen Brown trade packages falling through to where we really need to question why Brown was traded so quickly into the offseason.
MassLive's Red Sox writer Chris Cotillo joins the show in person fresh off being in Philadelphia for the All star Game to talk about how hot the talk is around the majors about the Sox, if we should believe Willson Contreras when he says he wants to stay in Boston, and how thin the line is between being buyers and sellers.
The lack of offense, stars, and really anything memorable made last night's All Star Game in the MLB so boring to watch.
Another day, another ranking where Drake Maye is at the bottom among his peers. The more of these lists come up, the more they are thinking just like Cam Newton about Maye and the Patriots.
The Red Sox may be in a state to be buyers at the trade deadline, but there is a mark that if the Sox come out cold post-All Star break they could go right back to being sellers.
The Jaylen Brown conversation continues with a caller suggesting the Celtics got rid of the wrong leader for the team. Should we worry about Jayson Tatum's leadership as he steps into the first year of the C's being his team?Then, an update from the World Cup and the NBA summer league fight between Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo in the Arcand Fire.And, the two-part Dong Report Extravaganza as we hit the All Star break.
We start the show by signing the praises of last night's Home Run Derby by the MLB. What was the biggest success from the Derby and what also could Netflix work on?Then, Willson Contreras had an awesome performance in the Derby and even committed to wanting to stay in Boston, but so many right-handed bats have been interchangeable its hard to set that in stone.And, its clear that if the Red Sox are going to be buyers at the trade deadline, they have nothing to worry about in the starting rotation.
If the trade deadline were to be tomorrow, its no question the Red Sox should be buying to add onto their hot stretch, However, does anyone really believe Craig Breslow and company will fully dive into making their team better?Then, Play Tessie's Sammy James joins the show to talk more about the Sox and if he's back to believing them to be the contenders we thought they'd be at the beginning of the season.And, how much of a change would the season look like if Alex Cora and his fellow coaches weren't fired?
The NFL seems to be buying in yet to Drake Maye with the quarterback rankings that've been coming out from the league. Could this be a bad sign for when the torch has to be passed to a new generation of QBs?Then, Greg Bedard's reporting could be a plan from the Patriots to put Christian Gonzalez in a bad light which all leads to a hold in when training camp starts.And, the big outbreak that is spreading throughout the country during the New England Nightly News.
Its time to have some fun and look back on the first half of dongs and all the dongs hit in the Home Run Derby in The Dong Report's special dong-stravaganza!
Christian gives his thoughts on the latest from the World Cup, the fight between Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo, and his favorite hockey video games in the Arcand Fire.
We expand from the New England part of the New England Nightly News and get into the big outbreak going across the nation.
The Patriots seem like they're conducting a plan to leak any news about a contract extension dispute with Christian Gonzalez through Greg Bedard.
From the Play Tessie podcast, Sammy James hops on and speaks with Arcand about if he's a believer in the Red Sox now, where the starting rotation ranks all-time, and if he trusts Craig Breslow ahead of the trade deadline.
No one is thinking about Alex Cora and company being fired before this Red Sox hot stretch, but one can wonder if this hot streak could happen if those coaches were still here.
Its been a rotation of right-handed bats to come and go in the Red Sox lineup and even though Willson Contreras is loved among fans, there's no guarantee he'll stay beyond this 2026 season.
Aside from some production choices by Netflix, you could call last night's Home Run Derby a big success with going back semblances of the old format from the glory days.
Only one hour tonight and Arcand starts by offering a "mea culpa" for giving up on the Red Sox so early in the season. Now that Boston has seemingly turned things around, how much more has to be done to keep their hot stretch going?Then, as of now the Sox won't be sellers and turn out to be buyers, but fans need to see Craig Breslow actually make that big add instead of hinting at one.And, we look back on the most notable games from the Sox season that stand out and give thoughts on the new Home Run Derby format.
The full edition of KJ Carson filling in on The Christian Arcand Show from Monday, July 6th, 2026.
Now that management and ownership have spoken about trading Jaylen Brown, its time to start looking ahead towards the future. What kind of power does Jayson Tatum hold now that the Celtics are his team?Then, the next date to watch for is 2029: the year the dark cloud could appear over the Celtics if Tatum decides to leave.And, an update from tonight's World Cup match between the USA and Belgium.
KJ is filling in for Christian Arcand tonight to react to the press conference from Brad Stevens and Bill Chisholm after the Celtics traded Jaylen Brown. Were we given more clarity or are there more questions to be asked?Then, communication between Stevens and Brown obviously disintegrated, but we don't know who was the instigator between the two of them.And, Jayson Tatum is the next big domino to watch if he commits to staying in Boston or if he's thinking about life away from the Celtics.
The conversation from the Celtics' press conference earlier today continues and we look at Bill Chisholm's side of things. If ownership is focused on their finances, is there a rebuild on the horizon for the C's?Then, the Red Sox are on fire to a point where the season can be saved if they go on a nice winning streak.And, ahead of USA vs Belgium, a recent red card reversal has gotten to the point of national news.
One big hot stretch and the Red Sox can be right back in the thick of things where selling might not be an automatic opinion yet. What is the timeline for when the Sox should pick a lane at the trade deadline?Then, the big winner of the Jaylen Brown trade wasn't the Sixers and certainly not the Celtics, but Jaylen Brown himself.And, the personalities in Boston that KJ is loving and lusting over.
From the amount talent the 76ers now have (even without LeBron James) and them being seemingly much better than the Celtics, the winner of the trade was Jaylen Brown himself for the situation he's now in.
One good stretch from the Red Sox and they can be right back in the Wild Card chase which means selling should be out of the question.
Jaylen Brown was the first massive contract off the Celtics' books and Jayson Tatum may not be far behind by the time his contract nears its end.
Don't look now, but the Red Sox have won eight of their last ten games thanks to a sweep of the Angels and even though they remain at 40-48, certain things go the right way and the playoffs are still a possibility.
Bill Chisholm and his ownership group might be starting to put money ahead of the Celtics with the trade of Jaylen Brown added onto last offseason's trades, the upcoming decision with Jayson Tatum, and even exploring a new arena.
If Brad Stevens truly didn't ask Jayson Tatum about input on the trade of Jaylen Brown then Tatum could be the next one to think about he really wants to spend the rest of his career with the Celtics.
KJ is filling in tonight and has more questions than answers about Brad Stevens, Bill Chisholm, and the rest of the Celtics organization following their press conference announcing the trade of Jaylen Brown.
Fallout from the Jaylen Brown for Paul George trade continues and we spend the first hour trying to figure out how this trade could've been prevented. Could a leak to the media help Brad Stevens get anything better than what he got?Then, if the organization really thinks Derrick White had a better season than Jaylen Brown, the something's seriously wrong with the analytics or the C's as a franchise.And, Jayson Tatum has been awfully quiet which makes some think he could've had a bigger hand in green lighting the move.
Everyone in the Celtics organization is getting blame from ownership new and old to the GM making the moves. Why did Brad Stevens choose basically a mystery box over a new boat in Jaylen Brown?Then, it seems like a drastic turn for Stevens with all of the good moves he's made since taking the front office position and the good trades he's made up to this point.And, a look at the rest of the Eastern Conference and where the C's actually stand in the first days of the NBA offseason.
The hour starts with Jack Simone from Boston Sports Journal joining the show to keep the Jaylen Brown trade conversation going and wonder how things deteriorated to a point the Celtics decided to trade him.Then, Brown put out a statement about the trade and left out some notable parts including thanking the organization or naming anyone in particular.And, other teams chose to trade for guys with much more baggage than Brown which remains as shocking as the trade itself.
We finally heard from Jaylen Brown as he jumped on his Twitch stream for the first time since being traded to Philly and some things he said were quite puzzling. Is he really honest when not wanting special treatment and does he really believe this past season was his favorite?Then, a pivot off from the big trade starting with the Arcand Fire talking Red Sox suspensions and the NBA's new free throw rule they're experimenting with.And, the night concludes as it always does with The Dong Report.
Things may feel bad in Boston with Jaylen Brown being traded; that means The Dong Report will have to lift everyone's spirits.
Christian reacts to the suspensions given out from the Red Sox-Nationals fight, a new rule about free throws during NBA summer league, and Madison Square Garden hosting potentially the biggest wedding in pop culture history in the Arcand Fire.
We heard from Jaylen Brown on his latest Twitch stream for the first time since being traded and doubled-down on one thing that made Arcand lose his mind.
Celtics' writer for Boston Sports Journal Jack Simone joins the show and shares the questions he still has from the Jaylen Brown trade, if the Celtics will still be a good team, and how this era will be remembered.
With Jaylen Brown now off the roster, the Celtics don't feel like they'll be as good as last season and that's thanks to other Eastern Conference teams getting better.
Everyone is trying to point the finger as to who is behind the Celtics trading Jaylen Brown and Bill Chisholm has his biggest questions to answer.
Jaylen Brown's former teammates have yet to pen any tributes or thank you letters including Jayson Tatum who may have given the final stamp of approval on the deal with Philadelphia.
The image-shaping the Celtics are trying to do with spinning the Jaylen Brown trade is to say Derrick White had a better season should draw some real concern if that is in fact true.

HR 4 - Meghan Ottolini and Justin Turpin start the final hour with the Celtics' chances at a Game 6 victory and more criticism for Jayson Tatum.

Mego and Turp take over the New England Nightly News with a good shark conversation after a man plans to swim around Martha's Vineyard to show that sharks mean no harm.

HR 1 - Meghan Ottolini and Justin Turpin are filling in for Arcand to give all their reactions from last night's huge Game 5 win from the Celtics. The issue Mego has though is everyone writing off Jayson Tatum again which we thought after the torn Achilles injury was over.Then, from the actual game, Jaylen Brown stepped up into the role everyone expected from him and the offense looked extremely energized.And, Luke Kornet was the surprise star and with Kristaps Porzingis unable to breathe as Joe Mazzulla stated, Kornet will likely be getting an even bigger role in Game 6.
On the heels of Luke Kornet's monster Game 5 and Joe Mazzulla saying Kristaps Porzingis couldn't breathe, Mego and Turp agree that Luke Kornet is going to have to have more minutes over The Unicorn even if he can't duplicate his sensational performance.
Meghan Ottolini and Justin Turpin fill-in for Arcand reacting to the others' reactions about the Celtics Game 5 win over the Knicks and "looking better" without Jayson Tatum. Mego and Turp have had it with what they call more disrespect towards a guy who just tore his Achilles.

Mike Vrabel is looking like his former head coach Bill Belichick with his constant movement backwards in the draft.Then, as they guys wait, they discuss the Celtics having a bad night in Orlando and losing Game 3 of their first round series to the Magic. It may not be a significant loss, but it is definitely annoying to have the series be extended at least an extra game.And, a selection is finally made and Jared Wilson comes from Georgia to New England as the Patriots draft the center with their final third round draft pick.

Why Game 3 needs to be the kill shot to the Magic despite whoever is active.And, Will Campbell shared some great stories, but having an active workout physically with his future head coach is an odd move for Mike Vrabel and the Patriots' staff to make.
