Brian chats with NBC Sports Boston’s Drew Carter about the Celtics’ roller-coaster win over the Mavs in Game 3 of the Finals, Jaylen Brown’s huge second half, how the C’s exploited Luka Doncic’s poor defense, and Drew’s first season as the Celtics’ TV play-by-play announcer (0:30). Then, Brian takes some listener calls before he and Jamie wrap up with some thoughts on the game and Tom Brady’s Patriots Hall of Fame induction ceremony (52:15).
