On this week’s episode of The Old Man and the Three we welcome The Ringer’s Ryen Russillo to preview the Boston Celtics (Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown) side of the NBA Finals ahead of their matchup against the Dallas Mavericks (Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving). They also discuss why it’s so difficult for teams like the Minnesota Timberwolves (Anthony Edwards, Karl-Anthony Towns) to make history and win a series after being down 3-0, the importance of finding the right role players on your team in today’s NBA, the role the media plays in player narratives, and much more. They also draft the best things from Boston.
