Is Anfernee Simons about to become Boston’s breakout star? We break down the Celtics’ 138 to 107 blowout win over a depleted Cavaliers squad and discuss what stood out most from Simons’ TD Garden debut, Jaylen Brown’s playmaking, and Payton Pritchard’s strong start. Then we preview Boston’s final preseason matchup against the Raptors, including what lineups we still want to see and which players have the most to prove. In part three and four, we react to the first half of the NBA’s annual GM Survey, from the best offseason moves to which rule needs to be changed, and debate where the Celtics stack up in the eyes of league execs.

All that and more on the latest episode of Hold My Banner with Adam Kaufman and Ountae Campbell.
