The world of Boston Celtics (and NBA) fans just went into overdrive as a St. Louis native’s injury report status went from “out” to “questionable.” How he will change the Celtics’ season so far, where he will fit into this version of the team, and how our expectations should change are just some of the pertinent questions that need to be answered.
But we can also go back in time and talk about the origin story of Celtics Hall of Fame legend Larry Bird in “Heartland: A Forgotten Place, an Impossible Dream, and the Miracle of Larry Bird,” a new account of the years when basketball really grabbed hold of French Leake and didn’t let go—and it’ll do us all a favor. On this week’s episode of “Havlicek Stole the Pod,” the hosts discuss Tatum’s possible imminent return and what that means for Boston, and then we take a closer look at Bird’s new book with author Keith O’Brien.
