• Boston Celtics Have the Edge in Game 3? Locked On Heat x Locked On Celtics Crossover
    Apr 26 2024

    Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown had big games but didn't get enough help from Kristap Porzingis, Derrick White, and Jrue Holiday. Can that turn around in Game 3 against the heat? On this special crossover edition, the hosts of Locked On Heat and Locked On Celtics come together to preview Saturday's big Game 3 in Miami. Wes Goldberg, David Ramil and John Karalis discuss the biggest storylines for each team including the pressure on the Celtics and whether Miami's Game 2 formula is repeatable before breaking down the adjustments they expect each team to make.

  • Boston Celtics blow out Miami Heat in Game 1 behind Jayson Tatum triple double
    Apr 22 2024

    The Celtics came out strong, went on a big run, and kept it rolling for basically the entire game (minus an early fourth quarter lull) to win a wire-to-wire blowout over the Heat in Game 1 of their opening round series. Jayson Tatum's triple-double was a big part of Boston taking advantage of everything the Heat threw at them. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal gets into all of that, how the defense and rebound played a massive part in the blowout, and why the amount of 3-pointers they took was just fine. Also, was the Caleb Martin play on Tatum dirty, bad luck and timing, or a little of both?

  • No Caleb Martin punishment, Boston Celtics secret weapon, Miami's only adjustment
    Apr 23 2024

    The NBA is not going to give Caleb Martin any further punishment for his foul on Jayson Tatum, but should they have? Also, the Celtics busted the zone pretty easily in Game 1, but there was a secret weapon beyond Sam Hauser and Payton Pritchard getting hot from 3. John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal and Tom Westerholm discuss that and the one adjustment Miami has that can give them a chance in this series.

John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal looks at the game, how Horford saved Boston from themselves with his energy, and why Brown's game was super impressive even though the box score doesn't look it.

  • Appreciating the Boston Celtics historic, and surprising, regular season
    Apr 5 2024

    The Celtics have 60 wins and have clinched the best record in the NBA, all with a couple of weeks before the playoffs start. So John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal and Tom Westerholm decided to take a show to just appreciate how amazingly well this season has gone so far before we have to focus on the playoffs and a championship run ... including Joe Mazzulla's coaching, Jaylen Brown, Kristaps Porzingis, Payton Pritchard, Sam Hauser, and the Jayson Tatum story we're haven't talked about this year.

  • Why the Boston Celtics should bring back Isaiah Thomas
    Mar 14 2024

    Kristaps Porzingis is still out with a hamstring issue. So we start the show wondering if there's anything there to be concerned about. Then, John Karalis of Boston Sports Journal and Tom Westerholm discuss the re-emergence of Isaiah Thomas and whether the Celtics should consider signing him, and why the argument or bringing him back has nothing to do with how well he can play at the NBA level.
