Brian discusses the Patriots' woeful offense, the Sox’s end-of-season press conference, and the contract standoff between the Bruins and Jeremy Swayman (1:00). Then, Brian chats with NBC Sports’ Chris Forsberg about the Celtics as they open up training camp, a chip on their shoulders after a summer of slights, how the team will deal with Kristaps Porzingis’s injury, and more (28:20). Brian and Jamie end with some emails on the Sox and Pats (1:13:40).
