Brad Stevens and Bill Chisholm Talk to the Media, With Michael Pina

Brian looks at the ripple effect of the Jaylen Brown trade, why the front office was ready to move on from him, and which Celtics could benefit from extra minutes next season (0:00). Then, Brian chats with The Ringer’s Michael Pina about the trade, Bill Chisholm’s defensiveness during the Celtics' press conference on Monday, how the CBA motivated the team to make the move, and more (28:30). Brian and Jamie end with a couple of listener emails before hitting on some Patriots notes (58:25).
