LOCKED ON CELTICS - Sept. 1: Jaylen Brown the NBA's most athletic rookie, Isaiah Thomas wows Seattle Seahawks, and way too much video games talk / MassLive's Jay King and Red's Army's John Karalis dive into a smorgasbord of Boston Celtics offseason topics, including the NBA's rookie survey (Jaylen Brown was voted the most athletic rookie), Isaiah Thomas' visit with the Seattle Seahawks, the fence mosaic of Kelly Olynyk, the most frustrating players in recent franchise history, and Jonas Jerebko's purchase of an esports team. A couple of minutes in, the guys play audio from Locked on NBA featuring some of ESPN analyst Kevin Pelton's thoughts about the Celtics. Near the end of the podcast, the discussion deteriorates into reminiscing about video games of old. - - #BostonCeltics #NBA #Celtics - Learn more about your ad choices.

52 - NBA's Atlantic Division - Full 2016-17 Preview / The Hardwood Knocks crew analyzes and previews all five Atlantic Division teams: the Brooklyn Nets, Philadelphia 76ers, New York Knicks, Toronto Raptors and Boston Celtics. - We're going worst to first. There's some debate between Brooklyn and Philly for fifth, but Adam and I beat out Dan's vote for the Sixers. So, we started with the Nets and their amazingly bizarre collection of players. - Then, we talked 76ers and all the young talent they have there. How good will Ben Simmons be as a rookie? Can they sort out the frontcourt logjam? And is the all 6'10"-and-up lineup a pipe dream? - After Philly, we moved on to Dan's glorious super Knicks. Melo/Porzingis is the best 4/5 combo they can run, but will they? And how much does Derrick Rose hurt in the W/L column. - Next, it's the Raptors, who basically just moved laterally this summer. With no real movement either direction, expect Toronto to stagnate. - Finally, we talk President Brad Stevens' Celtics and the versatility Al Horford adds to them. - As always, you can follow the Hardwood Knocks crew on Twitter. I'm @AndrewDBailey, Dan's @danfavale and Adam's @fromal09.

Breaking Down Kevin Durant's Best Options in 2016 NBA Free Agency / Kevin Durant is a free agent this summer.
Breaking Down Kevin Durant's Best Options in 2016 NBA Free Agency / Kevin Durant is a free agent this summer. Did you know that? It's OK if you didn't. It's not like anyone is talking about it or anything. - Except everyone is talking about it. Every week there's another rumor. Before every marquee matchup there's another rumor. Rumors, rumors, rumors. - Should Durant re-sign with the Oklahom City Thunder? Are any of the Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Lakers, New York Knicks, Toronto Raptors and Washington Wizards viable threats to whisk him off his feet? Can the Golden State Warriors and San Antonio Spurs be considered favorites to land him if he leaves Oklahoma City? Should Golden State or San Antonio even want to sign him? And, finally, where should Durant ultimately take his talents? - Keep it right here with the Hardwood Knocks crew as they tackle these question head on. As always, thanks for listening.

43 - Should the New York Knicks Trade Carmelo Anthony? / Carmelo Anthony's name is in the rumor mill yet
43 - Should the New York Knicks Trade Carmelo Anthony? / Carmelo Anthony's name is in the rumor mill yet again. Well, actually, it never left. He has been mentioned in trade scuttle ever since the New York Knicks, a team on the mend, re-signed him to a five-year, $120 million-plus deal in 2014. - This time, though, Frank Isola of the New York Daily News has him linked to a three-team deal with the Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers that would end with Melo playing beside LeBron James in C-Town. The framework in question, as you will hear, is unlikely. - But the constant chatter, coupled with rookie Kristaps Porzingis' meteoric rise through the NBA ranks, begets a more general issue: Should the Knicks be looking to trade Anthony now, or even at all? Hardwood Knocks breaks it down. - As always, remember to subscribe to Hardwood Knocks on iTunes so every new episode is automatically downloaded to your phone. Give us a rating there!
