On this episode of Celtics PRIDE, Adam, Josh, and Mike discuss the recent win streak and what has changed for this team in the past weeks. This includes the defensive impact of Tristan Thompson and Grant Williams. Role clarity for players up and down the roster and in rotations, Kemba Walker’s improved play including increased assist numbers and general ball movement. Of course, Jayson Tatum has been exceptional in this stretch of games. Has the team's grit and toughness improved? Are they healthier as Brad Stevens suggested? - - The guys also share thoughts on the Jabari Parker move. Will he make a difference? Was Mo Wagner really that bad? - - The Celtics are now in the running for the #4 seed and in a good position to miss the play-in tournament with 15 games left in the season. - - “The reason the population on Tristan Thompson Island is burgeoning is that Tristan Thompson has been an absolute defensive juggernaut unto himself.” -Mike Minkoff - - Remember to rate, review, and subscribe to the Celticsblog podcast feed (we're “Celtics PRIDE”) and follow us on Twitter @celticspridepod, a @celticsblog podcast. - Hosts: Adam Motenko, Josh Motenko @coachmotenko and Mike Minkoff @mikeminkoffnba. - Email: at [email protected] - - You can find regular episodes of the CelitcsPod and Celtics PRIDE podcasts on Apple, Spotify, Stitcher, or wherever else you listen to your podcasts. - Learn more about your ad choices.
