Donnie Wahlberg on The Big Show

ESPN radio ESP and you just can't get away from these people can ESPN radio. It's. Person you'd -- legislative activity the the only radio still they did they did I went over and -- you know I can keep it straight forward they like me because that talk honestly I don't you know I don't I don't you're real you're real -- but he. For best of the thing about it because I've known you for for years and I was -- games January so high that we know that the Bosnian. Point man announced back in. But you're real -- all along you've you've always been really and as opposed to some of these -- from Hollywood to. You know when the teams start winning back it was. Just instantly. Yes. -- Justin Timberlake came up to me this. Intelligence I think and -- to me after game four in in away in the celtics' comeback. Lakers here's some pictures harassment trial if -- To me now I had a Celtics Jersey in you know have a jacket on top in I'm even after the game and says by -- New Jersey. Or he's shown it now because they want like. Well they just jump on media and event but he just told me off here you're nervous about this when you're not nervous. About -- line. Of all the many things that say about the year ago you -- senator and so -- copyright on the a couple of others but I -- relegation trouble well I'd you know what.

I just my opinion of the series is it's just scary it's evening and I think it's even I think you know. I hope. Phil Jackson. Six Kobe Bryant on Rajon Rondo because I think Ray Allen kills the lakers for so whatever reason he just plays good against this team beats you it's good in this building now here in LA and I hope they make that mistake because I don't know that. You know I think if they start if they start making knee jerk reactions mark my suspicion listening to LA radio and Indian around Laker fans can somehow -- the last two days is that. They they they still they still had a chip on your shoulder but it's more than that it's like it's it's a frustrating. Inferiority complex chip it's not a healthy chip like we're gonna get you it's more like you know they believe does and they beat us been in. And their bad guys in this and that's not like you know we're a better team now we're gonna we're gonna get revenge it's not like that it's it's it's really interesting and and I think that you know if the lakers start. Speeding into. The things that really were relevant two years ago and aren't relevant now the bullying in the rough placements -- relevant anymore you know -- their different teams you know. Rasheed Wallace is not PJ brown PJ Brown's but would clear out half the lane in 2008. She always has rarely in the late night. But if they start stop the lakers start playing into. -- that what really applied in 2008 at least mentally. And the Celtics may be in their heads already. I'm just that that's what I'm hoping for.

factors gigantic I think can. -- Rondo factor. At and the whole idea of the of the pick and roll which has been very success I think the Celtics have defended the pick and roll these playoffs as well as any team -- in a long time. I think that's and they usually is pretty go and insulated pretty good and offensively. Where I think that's where the lakers might have some trouble especially if Bynum. As we've heard the last couple days is really concerned about that that unique is that because of some major problems on the.

All right we've established your your real thing you know you're not not fraud Justin Timberlake here. You go to the game may be a real fan of Islamabad I don't know -- and we you know what you watch TV we'll see you Sacramento Phoenix so it's a you know -- that either with on the human reject. Let me notice that when they were 2727. When they lost than that's been -- Washington honest -- yes. We did you buy in no noticeable Reston veterans get ready for the policies or were you saying well we'll see here.

Well here's the thing is I I. I don't know you know. All of us fans we don't really know exactly what his goal would you do well no I mean I'm -- I'm in Sacramento called trying to generate true that's right on the -- a few weeks before them but you know. The little mouse told me about but. I'm sitting on the bench in Sacramento marks in the game and the only thing I noticed is. The Big Three are -- you know something it okay maybe docs resting them maybe you know that they're trying to get healthy and may be you know. Seems like this just aren't you know they wanna win without having to over extend these guys in the regular season and you know. People dot you know two years ago you know every Laker fan I know after the first championships that you're lucky about it now because your team's old well maybe Danny and -- today. Even cardinals let's -- the guys down and same for the for the playoffs I don't know but what I can tell you. Is that. I've always subscribe to one thing all year I said nothing matters to the playoffs and in the thing for me as. I always believed the Celtics could beat Orlando I don't think Orlando is a championship caliber team I was believe the Celtics could beat Cleveland. I didn't believe Cleveland was a championship caliber team -- question is would they be -- And I've always said. If the Celtics show up. And beat Cleveland in beat Orlando in the playoffs and I think they're probably gonna beat LA in the championship as well that's always been my thing I didn't know they would show up. But I knew they could it's in so we we just didn't know sold along those same lines what you've been surprised at that trade say Ray Allen. Back in the day that was very telling to me I was actually with the guys across the street on on seventy and ESPN LAL -- talked -- each -- and that you have evidence that.

Only that slot on the and we don't we don't do that must not allowed. Politely yeah two seconds hardly needs accurately as I sit here -- so little odds and guys I was Angela you guys let me answer questions it's beautiful up there and kind of like -- from some of you know out of my. People Boston don't think we do that the I forgot the African question would you be surprised that -- rail.

Well okay that's I did an interview -- Celtics played the lakers out here in this the regular season I was I was on the station -- and they said what do you think you know it actually was saying the Celtics are built for the playoffs and I built for the -- season and John I was pretty smart guy really like mason the good guys and I said well the Celtics believe they can win the championship. Right now this tells me that there confident enough to -- its image -- because they didn't trade Ray Allen you know it means they rather than break up the core. And try to do something drastic they kept it together. In that to mean. Coupled with scene the night before in Sacramento because that was just today a day or two before the game in LA scene -- resting guys I started to think. You know what. Maybe they know somethin' that we don't know maybe they're not pushing the panic button -- always said he wasn't panicking. It's you know he one of the guys to play better and they weren't but he seemed to. You know he seemed to never be panicking Danny didn't panic -- they didn't trade -- accident not pushing the panic button that to me means. -- he's probably 80% in trending up.

I -- getting better and you know I mean I think they tried to make deals at the trading deadline and they just. We're not deals we're gonna work out for them. And I knew if you panic but when people like I think and then make them move I N and the Celtics and and I think Danny is very good at decide I think if you look at. We've we've got terrific general managers right now controlling our teams back -- but I think what Danny has been able to accomplish. With a a a franchise that was in the garbage cans with -- you know getting the bad luck of the draw the fifth pick in the draft. I was among them to many he's done the best job because he said to come from the lowest to get carried out the bottom absolutely but I thought. That doc I agree with I think dot handled it perfectly I'm not sure. If we would get -- under you know medication or whatever the sodium pentothal and find out exactly what he was like I gotta believe.

Even he thought this was impossible but he was doing what he had to do to put them in the best position to be able to went and they settle all of this. If they do win it this year and have seen a few games and you've seen a few teams over the years this might be the best of Obama to you want. Because not only do you finish fourth. But you'll have knocked off. When you think about the stars of the game Dwayne -- OK maybe not because he doesn't and Missouri -- that you know rob James people thought we would lose -- And in the last three rounds you'll go without having home court advantage it's not it's unheard of in the -- made any MB AB key to winning this thing. Is to have a good season winds sixty plus get yourself in the best position that's what they didn't 81 that's what they. 031 comeback in Philadelphia they still at the final game played at Boston right. You can go through 8687. They were always in a good position they're -- awful position this year. And yet they would have to do it against the top stars of the game you could argue the top three or four stars of the game and they would have to do what against the top. Three teams during the regular season record like -- would -- about not only all of that.

They've done it in dominant fashion yeah that's that's I think what's I think. That's what's surprising and to go back to your question is did did we really think in the middle of the year I think it is yet. They could beat -- seven game series -- if everyone's on the floor okay I thought okay because -- is not a deep team there there there's soft in an -- usually set a few minutes ago there -- people thought it was -- dominate them with -- without home court advantage that that's what's surprising when Garnett -- debate and -- businesses -- and get suspended -- means the low -- the post season was clearly that. And that's when he was in was to him I don't pets sports. That reason I don't exports. I've been once and agree to move. And we KG got suspended for game two I was never more confident that the Celtics blog routine and that while that night. In aid if if you know my -- was to take home and I. -- I flew to Vegas. And I do their anyway they imitate him I knew they know when that game because that that's thrown out you know you don't know people Macintosh the and a few of them. I don't want the matter when and -- them -- little black.

Already was -- it. -- Too low and all the law where it's you know. I'm gonna do it system right now is what it's not like something my name. Almost that -- new. Equipment. To.

We talked about run on the difference of Rondo from from two years ago and others that the one. Matchup that does concern me. In this series is cagey because as much as Rondo has taken leaps and bounds from where it was two years ago. KG is probably drop down a -- Paul Gasol has gone up a couple much. That's -- warned that worries me the most. It's all in my opinion has they have a great series for the lakers to win is because we know the Kobe's gonna play really well. Now the Kobe's gonna be a fact what do you think about the KG and focus on match. I think.

How come this way I think what I said earlier may come into play if if those guys don't believe. That they're the better team. And look what sometimes we we we you guys the guys and ESPN everyone experts. When they say things like well as the momentum does this team down themselves look Orlando was they seem to be confident and on the -- but it wasn't a whole team has Vince Carter never -- company looked terrified from gain ever again personally yeah he never recovered those three -- as Orlando is gain momentum he gained none. He never found his rhythm and so teens do they find them. In momentum and confidence I don't know but if Powell Gasol. Doesn't believe that he's better than Kevin Garnett -- that he can -- Kevin Garnett and Kevin Garnett gets in his head. -- that's a key matchup in the series back to be one of the things that swings at the Celtics it is obvious all really that much better player than two years ago.

Better I don't know how much better I think he's a little bit more physical though. Being physical on the west versus being physical against an Orlando or against Cleveland which Boston said the bill right is different stay right. The one thing that scares me about him I think that one thing he does much better now than he did before. Is he has great hands to -- keep the ball alive on the offensive glass. He keeps the ball alive and a good offensive team like they have you do that. You give them more opportunities more field goal attempts guess what they're gonna score more points in it and that's why that they put under 10150 and implement what they want in this series. It but they do you do that.

Look they've we've played twice in the regular season nicely we love it has an appellate I was gonna ask him what we've -- got. We've now it's how they tell about the puppy we get we will have done yoga is apparently showed Christ Jesus dying in the need -- just -- that I gotta build my business and -- notoriety need to be good out there of those. This is I just got enough is that we need to -- now head back and look at its needle in his hour of late when they look I love you guys I. And sometimes I drive round LA in the afternoon and I just wanna call that can I do all are you -- the upping your ultimately the only campus with app you does and you can get you can get it and applications that you can actually -- random almost -- again and we'll such. -- it will look for my great -- I do call by the way I just amnesty for modeling but I did that wants to make a serious yeah. That estimate Goodspeed did that wants to be in -- written into his brother to brother it's only. He routed on two weeks later ended his -- told me that you actually called and I -- remember this say about letting you know of that model it is I think it was awesome I've.

honey inbox. She got a movie in Marblehead would George Clooney. On perfect star -- the -- Another another in the ways as another latest that is nor'easter. That the Clinton conceded it's done it -- yet.
