Mike Wise has the week off, so Bruce Bernstein welcomes veteran NBA journalist Steve Bulpett to the show. Steve has covered the Boston Celtics since the 1980s and he shares his thoughts on how the Celtics will fare in the wake of Danny Ainge's trade deadline moves. Is Robert Williams III the answer at center? Will Evan Fournier provide enough scoring and playmaking to complement the current group? Does Fournier's presence mean that Kemba Walker's role could be affected? Steve and Bruce also discuss whether the Celtics play "too nice," and whether they need to follow Marcus Smart's example of grittiness if they expect to reach their potential as a team.
