  • The Celtics eked out a 114-108 win over the Jazz in TD Garden on Monday night. No Tatum, no KP, no Al, but Jaylen Brown led a balanced attack that included separate D-White and Sam Hauser explosions. The Jazz stormed back behind hot shooting to erase a 20+ point lead, but Boston was able to refocus and pull away down the stretch. Chud and Doug break it all down, give out their Chuddy Chains, and take a voyage around the NBA.
