How bout them Boston Celtics? Better than you anticipated, huh?

The Celtics have gotten off to a respectable start at 3-5.  For them.  And Larry H. Russell is here to talk about it.

Two very special guests will join Celtics Beat.  The first is Adam Kaufman, he of his very own Boston Celtics podcast - Celtics @ 7, as well as boston.com.  Adam and LHR will talk about the Celtics and their two tough losses to the Oklahoma City Thunder and Cleveland Cavaliers this week.  Is it time to become concerned over all these blown leads? Who’s responsible for it? And what the heck is up with this defense? What defense?

LHR will also welcome back Eddie Johnson to the show.  The 17-year NBA veteran is the Phoenix Suns color commentator for FOX Sports Arizona.  LHR will preview the Celtics tilt with the Phoenix Suns on Monday with Eddie. Don't be surprised if there's some bonus conversation in there with the colorful Eddie Johnson as well.

And yes, LHR will have time for Around the NBA in 5.
