[0:00]" Well throughout the course of the Celtics playoff run we've had the pleasure of visiting with Donny Marshall from Comcast and the Celtics coverage on Comcast. Donnie Jones on like good morning -- We're doing this morning Ariel. And do my -- local place."

[0:15]" So so ironic on a game where a lot of people really don't wanna. Talk about them things to Celtics did wrong you have a great clear connection now at an event. -- what happened did you -- that you."

[0:31]" You don't worry you're actually yeah. Well let's start way that I am aware of where we began our discussion and it it just seemed as -- at least offensively Kevin Garnett kind of disappeared in the second half of last night's game. How much blame goes to Garnett the Celtics inability to get them the ball and how much credit goes to the Cleveland deep --"

[0:53]" Well I think a lot of that credit have to go to equipment -- and clearly Cleveland. Play that game their face -- no we seen you guys know leasing -- play. You know enough games to know that they want a little game in the mid seventies to mid eighties and then the Celtics. You know what their past they it they're winning they need to play those games they they showed they -- win at any indication of the Celtic but in the playoffs it's all about you know that old cliche imposing your will. You know you'd determining the pace for the triple of the game and you know the Celtics state they have and I in my mind fit to played their game they have to -- the game in the in the low ninety's. It helped -- you know somewhere in the ninety's and make Cleveland play -- that -- they just did not do that not remotely you know alternate BKG. He's a big man he he's he really can't. Decide when you don't team is what it can make what happened. The ball and they want to stop settling for jump shots on him in the post or they're going to come a point that -- in and hopefully it'll happen. You know at home to marlin and hopefully been you know the next. Game Ecuador Cleveland that they decided altered -- stopped pick up truck and and and do what has got gotten to this point and had a indicate either that or he's going to have these great passer and we know that. He's going to score you know you gotta keep the the ball you know six feet from the basket and and not get the ball -- because returned it to a different game yet the ball -- walked into the basket but. If they're applicable while we're routines as you know what he's our guy we have to go to and everything starts there really starts and and -- basically you know in with KG on the opposite --"

[2:33]" You know -- before the series started we are feared this boogie man in Cleveland a guy named LeBron James and in our dream or an R nightmare. This -- man with scoring 35 points forty points. I say that the LeBron we saw last night is more dangerous than the guy who could score 35 or forty points would you agree."

[2:55]" Yeah I agree you know people. You know uni and I think this is probably does the basketball the basketball player you could say struggling. And you know. For got to be struggling and -- okay you look at -- but take that away were up as he struggled. Many finding -- he's giving that it wouldn't eat there when it came meet them you bet it in Jamaica on a reporter but. We saw last night that he made that Beltran were eighteen really -- it was devastating to the Celtic and you know the guy who really is peace. Scary and he's he's not just here because he's six -- 250 to seek to 160 currently have a ball you know the majority of the gate for the cavs but. He's scary when he's not. Scoring extra points. Because you always have to find and you always have to understand that -- is good at -- or eight years LeBron is it even better. And he had the ball will be normal consultant a lot of he has the body look at that cutting. What makes LeBron those scary that he hit the ball or hundred mile an hour -- And acting that would put the barely they're like Clyde Drexler was sent down -- people want plate that -- really trying to find it. --"

[4:10]" I -- How they don't they don't do yeah."

[4:15]" You know I don't know what it would diet so you know -- it -- in my mind you know scary when. One he's not scoring if he scored 3040 point total of -- I think this when he scored thirty or forty points if he's. You know we do what everybody else kind of center around watching what he's not scored a point that when -- your partner."

[4:39]" The status out there everybody has been talking about it they'll continue to talk about it until the Celtics win on the road -- oh and five on the road in the playoffs. I said -- earlier Donnie if their flaw is that they're going to play superior basketball at home and they can't win on the road. I'll take that package if it's superior basketball but is that realistic is it realistic for them to. Win every game at home."

[5:05]" You know how Kirk. You would say you would you know that but you don't think after winning game on the road. But yet you know if you get into a situation where and I have been tremendous because they got in trying to you know trying to. Move things don't want to see people -- about let's say it all felt that one on the road on the Burke Burke does state that whatever gave it all there aren't. It actually fine but the cubs -- I think psychologically guys where. You leave your building and you get on the -- and you start to think on though Riegle again they're not even a little bit about -- right there. Okay it made it through the first quarter okay. Made it through the second quarter net but everything else -- you know the Celtics -- would be happy you know there. They're they're like -- two point game at halftime guys are really playing great let you know what you -- The cavs coach you -- an 82 point game LeBron is still struggling we're dealing outrebounded. We're at all you know what popular pretty good about ourselves so deal with that particular perspective at that point. You know. You're gonna have to you're gonna have to dig down there and make your Baltimore collegiate deep -- that aren't. Somebody inside the -- but going to come out but you know what. There's nobody Archie got we know that that are going to be just not a physical kindergarten director going to. You know it -- Eight years very you know he's a very intense guy but I wouldn't say he's an overly talk about going to meet in the back Alley and beat it into -- it you know and veteran team like that some. Somebody on the -- up to step up it was we can't just. Words you know whenever we have to try to win the game."

[6:46]" There were reports that on Sunday the Celtics that had an hour long practice that was described his training camp and it's. A what did you think of the reports of that is an unusual this time of year to have that kind of intensity -- practice."

[7:02]" You know. I think right now you're see it Sheehan still trying to figure out. You know some way to kick this thing started they've -- intensity of practice that it. You know. It's quote that a lot are from from you know someone famous whatever may yet I think at this point guard they're looking or something to try to generate some -- Emotion on our intensity. You know regardless of when it happened to try to show up there on the floor."

[7:30]" You know Dottie last night when LeBron James Lewis wrapped up by Paul Pierce to prevent them from falling into the stands and the bronze mommy came on the court I ever Doug Collins and Kevin Harlan we're saying there's no love lost between Paul Pierce and LeBron James won have you heard that and two of you have. West a source of tension between these two players."

[7:54]" You know I think. I've heard everything from -- lot Serbs are here you don't LeBron has altered is number. I don't really know -- I don't know if Paul Pierce really been you know here's enough to negate. Pat Hideki you know and and -- same opportunity here. British think he's at such a level -- his career. All stars make tons of money now he's winning this year I don't even think that alters tears you know that if the -- You know the board Jane hit it low paying Tayshaun Prince whoever it is that that people upset over his career at his number don't think alters your peers and you know sometimes guys need to keep them motivated -- it but the mom come and help by one of my former teammates and media. Peck let it -- any doubt we can get a couple of the Celtics to play with that much harder LeBron james' mom had that. Good problem you don't that we -- compliment could be up 31 which uses its -- you know I -- people -- at all watching net the United which started something about the way that you know -- the playable that was. Those weird weird situations abroad it was pretty lucky with the day after most of -- not at all because. I think we would receive her furcal went after herald sun up it what you talked her."

[9:17]" Average which captain Bob couple out a couple what would have to have your mom comes on the court when you're playing in NBA game and -- you'd never live that down the."

[9:26]" Absolutely got I mean absolutely not that that one will put Albion blooper. Real -- going to be your team and got a reminder that you have players vote against you compete saying where's your -- that today like. You know let the situation -- Obviously involved is to them all and then they can read -- he's a young guy I mean you know he's been in a week a couple of years or five years now he's only what 2220 result. You you don't edgy still -- just like -- you know 90% because in the NBA but. But it -- you're the product of you know hurt not really understanding that -- When it's not a professional he -- a grown man in this world Austin political beat up but that was. They'll layer remote trigger love them or would I -- look bigger love it couldn't predict. You know they're like man had a problem girl Africa Mohammed the -- he so dark he probably -- 3830."

[10:19]" Aren't exactly. What are your Donnie what did you think of the assessment of your former teammate in the text about the heart that the Celtics were playing."

[10:28]" You know I think there was some. You know I think there was. Knowing that he had a case but I think he was trying to be more fun than anything else would just say and that I think the point was that you know the Celtics you you're waiting for them we've been -- been spoiled when we're waiting predict kinda turn it on -- secular governments around -- beat cancer not a great scene maybe you know LeBron it's great about it democracy like out of it after a -- will bet weighting people waiting for the Celtics to sit so -- regular season to show well you know the team that went 31 intent on the road. That acting -- well everyone it's kind of like okay the show will be here Perez and -- okay. There -- road game against okay this will be the night and -- that."

[11:13]" But somehow I think a lot while waiting for you know reality start making three pointers while waiting for -- acerbic and all the chuckles you know impossible shots and you know it's it's only -- the product of what this probably spoiled us in the -- is that the sort of created you know all you know regular season long."

[11:31]" I -- did you see what we're Doc Rivers sees when it comes to his for for lack of a better a description of -- ball point guard although. They're not all point guards when he sees. Rajon Rondo -- cell and Eddie House and decides it to those guys are worthy of consistent playing time. Do you see what he -- you see where it on the front."

[11:52]" I do it I think it caught Byrd you do it. You know you take any how to say okay you know we need -- played point guard now where you know all along and simply so big you say okay now -- more specialized. Position that coming in shooting three pointers and we really haven't -- that I think it I'd probably be idiot you're here to make any how you played point guard can even point -- you get a point -- body but he's pitching injuries the score in the heat is special these guys that we need a couple quick -- that you bring in and so I think it. -- out so -- wasn't there to make any else. Have to play that position -- but the principal positions -- you're playing with guys who have -- the ball there and be successfully take you all the great you know Toronto and Sam. You seen two different games you know obviously sent the so that it wanted to interview last week that. Almost slow down bring the ball what he -- set in what he can shake it like you guys except in the negotiable. He doesn't Sampras took -- picture about any if you let you go get a shot rip Iraq though -- in my life. He just he does such a great job of changing the pace of the game and not just offensively that we know what -- the opposite. -- currently makes got like a market where speed up he'd make any decent speed up who. Really not a great ball handler gets in Iraq will make those guys play fast and they want to what I've never been. About it question -- coaching in our love diapers to the person. You know you know considered a very good friends I would never even on the golf course and what -- they can. I aptly -- Patel who act like really could not stand the players who expanded. What -- the question is what he did in game might be upset with that what you you know you just there's you know no one thought in the mind the coach in place certain that certain better. And sometimes it works and in you know whatever questions difficult -- but it works and then when it doesn't now than people sitting at -- their archer -- and why do that I -- I'll always stayed away from. You know you know question what could play guy or not -- certain batter monopoly that together but you know you have gotten -- What -- have more options -- look more confusing for us to figure out."

[14:03]" I a year to stand out I don't think Doc Rivers has gotten the credit he deserves for a 66 when regular season. And even the first two games of the series the way the Celtics -- excuse me defend -- but I did have a problem last night when it was clear Sam to sell couldn't keep public gifts and as you said he couldn't play he couldn't make Gibson. Play faster than you wanted to yet to sell with the on the court I just wonder why that happened and how did you see that."

[14:30]" Why you know I didn't want to will point to where. I think you're you're you're trading deepest girlfriends and at times I think we know the Celtics are good enough -- of the team to have -- slight breakdown but you know got in the regular season I think when you have a Purcell who. When the place starts at the top of his tackles -- not you're putting so much pressure on your back one right now is just stepped up to try to get stopped staying out of foul trouble. Cavaliers to a great job of trying guys. And then finding their own teammate underneath they're finally got in the corners right now Celtics Italy they have the cavaliers believing they can win this series -- when. Couple games they have the captain -- and whatever because you know there's breakdowns beat -- we -- breakdown that point you know guys would get on the way they've they've done an okay job of keeping the ball winkle he lubricate going left umpire LeBron -- this -- going left you know you know he's going to try to do one thing all left to right. Our guys so explosive going to the right go right 8590% of the time and you have helped stepping up that's fine but. When you -- guy and can't get in did not want not a great ball handler and result struggling and -- certainly -- you think about Lester get sick so -- let him. Practical point I think -- some it's sometime in in. You know hopefully everything will -- felt like it. Actually at home but there's going to come forward you have to you know they're going to say it will send you got acerbic assessment which you know -- United and -- the not the same --"

[16:04]" knowledge after the game that for the first time all year he would have to say that his team did not play with poise. Down the stretch and he said he said we have to play better under stress there's no doubt about it. I called them hero shots and I thought we took a lot of those instead of just trusting what we deal was at the first time you've seen this as well this year."

[16:24]" Not don't think so I think you know one when we're out west they went on that three game skid. I saw the same thing I saw guys just being in a situation where -- used to having had adversity they were used okay fine ought to -- this -- it. You know draw some body if you drive the basket. Ticket to great deal but Mike KG you know in the post and it didn't pull the hitting the reasoning and I think. Reminded me of those that streak beta game -- streak they went on here in the city where -- what not what you'd think I'd say you know what we say about Lilly got out of pocket a little bit you know they. They work themselves then you know it's just. If you don't if you don't have to -- their home in the crowd behind -- and in your your on the road. You can't you happen at that point you can't go one on one and the same thing could be inserted. You know even the three games in Atlanta amounted to sit twice and in Cleveland we are not a one on one basketball team we have got a good score but they scored great. With in the opposite. When the ball moved from side to side and we played together in. You know let that you broke shot in what you're guilty Russia that is scary thing for coaches what that aren't going -- to like a snowball. You know rolling downhill it is it's bigger bigger threat to present it stop."

[17:41]" Well three out of the four semi final series Donnie or tied it 22 the Celtics are favored over the cavaliers the Hornets are favored over the spurs. And the Lakers are favored over the jazz do you think all the favorites come out of these 22 series and and win their respective series."

[17:59]" Thanks so it's basically just because that you know well. And I like. New Orleans. I think I'd like to. I I would always -- and I'm not a gambler but I would always go pitch from experience I have to go what does the home court advantage anytime you get dispute in the playoffs the crowd really get into it and honestly felt that we know but it is right now -- in the second round these playoffs on -- want guys. That immediate not that not a fluke that that is she's really taken advantage of home court ability to win on the road -- trying -- it catch it. Without accountability of the day so you know I'd have to go -- Michael -- it will guys you know looking to have home court advantage. That would work. In my mind -- that they."

[18:45]" we appreciate double talk to again Thursday morning."

[18:50]" Michael public figure but you don't want to hit some golf what actually go out will be bigger budget trying to round."

[18:55]" I know you know you are back going to ask you this quickly yeah I know UT vote Chelsea Manchester how the other game turn out what was the what was the key sequence of the game."

[19:06]" Come all around -- yeah like Robert Beltran it was real well on the radio I'm pleased for a -- for real Gary Coleman and a couple weeks here -- ticket Liverpool. You keep -- people -- Michael all don't want to wonder -- purpose we can't you know Michael. -- little by how much you beat. I know tiger wasn't there and I don't Sergio what you thought about what. I'm glad I don't doubt. You look now but I got to -- I guess they argue that you can't comment look at our. In the studio look don't Q would you little -- you can't you gotta go talk about -- told you Michael told him expert that you can't look good you know talked about you to -- you gave me."

[19:55]" I Donnie Paul -- I was put it in the drink on the seventeenth personal Sutton dance and art exhibit. What are hey man what happened at a -- double the final score."

[20:07]" Michael look America and another brother. If you count in Boston and only talking about don't help don't have become parents -- help you know we're talking about okay."

[20:18]" Not able to -- yup all right -- an -- that is that Donny Marshall from Comcast. Comcast sports --"
