This week on the Celtics Beat, Daniel Baker and Adam Lowenstein take a look at the season so far for the Washington Wizards and Boston Celtics with Edge of Sports Radio co-host, Coach Kevin McNutt, a D.C. basketball legend!

McNutt and the guys discuss the future of the Wizards' backcourt of John Wall and Bradley Beal and whether or not Rajon Rondo deserves a max contract.

Coach McNutt, the author of Hooked on Hoops: Understanding Black Youths' Blind Devotion to Basketball, goes over his surprises - both positive and negative - for the NBA season so far as well.

As the holidays approach, CLNS Radio's own locker room reporter, Jared Weiss checks in to talk about Celtics' head coach Brad Stevens' holiday plans and the impact of the Omer Asik trade that did not happen.

Daniel and Adam try to figure out if anyone can beat the Pacers or Heat from the East on this week's edition of the Celtics Beat. Enjoy!
