12/31/14 • 122 min

The final Celtics Talk Radio broadcast of 2014. The Boston Celtics have played 4 games since our last broadcast. The Celtics played at the Miami Heat then at the Orlando Magic. Then hosted Kevin Garnett and the Nets. Then faced off with Paul Pierce and the Washington Wizards down in the nation's capital. The Celtic's Talk Crew will recap the big question which is. Did the Celtic's make up their mind in regards to what they wanted out of this season? Did they dominate the month of decemebr and gain ground on the weak eastern conference playoff race. Or did they get beat by the teams in the NBA'S mediocre group and instead push themselves further away from the playoff picture and make it look like another tanking season is in our midst. Jay O of redsarmy.com and Jon Shames will join Igor and the rest of the crew to discuss where do the Celtic's go from here do they repeat the same thing they did in the 2013/14 or do they fight to show fans they are looking to win and make an impact now and not focus on hypothetical situations 4 or 5 years from now
