  • Would Damian Lillard Help or Hurt the Boston Celtics?
    Jul 3 2025
    The Celtics are reportedly interested in Damian Lillard, but would he actually fit next to Tatum and Brown? Is bringing him off the bench with Payton Pritchard starting a wild idea or exactly what this team needs? The guys also react to Boston signing Josh Minott and what it means for the rotation, plus a fan suggests Bol Bol as the answer to the Celtics frontcourt depth. Later, the question turns to Georges Niang and Anfernee Simons. Will either be on the roster when the season starts, or are trades coming? Then it's time to look out west. Deandre Ayton is joining LeBron and Luka in Los Angeles. Is that enough to make the Lakers a real threat in the West? The episode wraps with a big-picture debate: is the NBA dynasty era officially over, or are we just in a brief moment of parity? All that and more on this episode of Hold My Banner, hosted by Adam Pellerin and Ountae Campbell.

  • Who Is Hugo González? Celtics Make a Bold NBA Draft Gamble
    Jun 26 2025
    Did the Celtics just draft a future star or a long-term project at pick No. 28? We dive into the Hugo González selection and what Brad Stevens had to say about the international wing with big upside. From his size and defense to the skills he still needs to polish, we break down what fans should expect from him and how he might transition to the NBA after limited EuroLeague minutes. Plus, Kristaps Porzingis is out and Georges Niang is in as Boston shakes up the roster with a three-team deal. We look at why the Celtics made the move and whether Niang will stick around. We also share our winners and losers from a chaotic Draft Day 1, debate the ESPN broadcast, and judge the best and worst outfits in this year’s “Wicked or Kick It.” And with the Thunder now champs, we ask the big question: how would the 2025 squad stack up against the Celtics from 2024? All that and more on Hold My Banner, hosted by George Balekji and Ountae Campbell.
