Today's cast: Dan, Chris, Jeremy, Jessica, JuJu, Mike, and Roy. So... the Heat beat the Celtics in Boston last night. How 'bout that? Dan leads the crew through a conversation about how the Heat were able to take down the Celtics with a "perfect" game, Jayson Tatum and the Celtics late-game execution, Joe Mazzulla vs. Erik Spoelstra, and, somehow, the definition of "culo" as we listen to Ryan Cortes calling into WEEI. Then, Amin and Charlotte are dropping in from Oddball to discuss Charlotte's disappointing night as a Celtics fan, why Bam Adebayo is the best defender in the league, and Stan Van Gundy's fury.
