Things to Be Thankful for | EP: 042

Episode 42 of Your Celtics Source breaks down the Celtics’ difficult loss to the Brooklyn Nets and examines the broader concerns facing the team. With the Celtics hovering around .500, no clear direction established, and Jayson Tatum still sidelined, the organization currently sits in one of the most challenging spots in the NBA: the middle.

This episode revisits the issues exposed against Brooklyn — including the flat start, rebounding regression, Derrick White’s slump, and the impact of Jaylen Brown’s foul trouble — and highlights the recurring trends that have defined the season. Potential rotation adjustments and long-term roster considerations are also explored as the team evaluates its path forward.

A Thanksgiving-themed segment also identifies four key positives that Celtics fans can remain thankful for: Jaylen Brown’s elite offensive production, Jayson Tatum’s encouraging recovery progress, Brad Stevens' proven roster-building track record, and Payton Pritchard’s emergence as a consistent and impactful contributor.
