The Celts Keep On Rolling With Michael Pina. Plus, the Pats Mess Up Their Draft Pick.

Brian chats with The Ringer’s Michael Pina about the Celtics' successful West Coast road trip, including a win over the Lakers on Christmas, Derrick White’s All-Star case, Jrue Holiday’s recent hot steak, how Kristaps Porzingis has changed the team’s offense, and more (0:30). Then, Brian discusses the Patriots’ win over the Broncos on Christmas Eve, Bailey Zappe’s strong game, how this changes their draft strategy, and whether they will still look to add a QB (54:30). Finally, Brian and Jamie talk a bit more about the game and say goodbye to Caleb Williams and Drake Maye as the Pats drop to no. 4 in the NFL draft (1:23:50).
