00:00And I would say this, and Paul Pierce has said he's, you know, around the team.

00:04And if you look at the Celtics from back then, 2008,

00:07they underachieved in how many championships they could have won

00:10because they probably should have won more, and they didn't.

00:13If you're the Celtics of now, the opportunity for you to win back-to-back

00:18is right there at your fingertips because that Celtics team will show you

00:22that if you don't take advantage of winning with the team

00:26that is supposed to win multiple championships,

00:28you might never get another one but one.

00:32Great lead. Great lead from you.

00:33That's a great episode. Every episode has been great.

00:37But that was really interesting because when they got – I love KG.

00:39When they got him and Bill Russell was like,

00:41you probably could win about three championships.

00:43When you looked at that team, they probably should have won at least two.

00:46I know it's old footage and it's aired before,

00:49but the back and forth between KG and Bill Russell is extraordinary.

00:56Extraordinary content.

00:57I love Ticket.

00:58I remember Ticket down to Minnesota, the way he plays with the energy

01:01and just how he practiced.

01:03But that's why I think with the Celtics team,

01:05they should be taking a page out of that Celtics team's book

01:09and going, look it, those guys underachieved.

01:12We don't want to be like that.

01:14I'm telling you, it's arguably the best sports documentary ever made.

01:18That's why I'm going to be like that.

01:19I'm going to be like, oh, I'm going to be like that.

01:22I'm going to be like, oh, I'm going to be like that.
