00:00but this is good news i think the process has started we've put the injury in the rear view
00:04mirror for jason tatum now it's about recovery and rehab and when can he get back and how good
00:09will he be when he's back and all of that we're looking forward to your fitzy plenty of good
00:12doctors plenty of great hospitals plenty of people that could take care of him down in new york the
00:16fact that they met this aggressively and got him already on the recovery track is the best case
00:23scenario that you could possibly hope for or imagine for something like this that is well
00:28honestly nightmarish not just for the now of course it's miserable for this series and
00:33potentially for the remainder of the postseason if there is to be any for this version of the
00:38celtics but this changes the future this changes the planning this changes the calculus this changes
00:43the accounting the aprons that they'll exist in the roster building next year for all we know
00:48bill chisholm may take over after this celtics playoff run ends and say okay so i have no tatum
00:54next year yeah guys we're gonna go ahead and take a step back to this year you guys tried to get a
00:58championship you've been in the finals a bunch let's take a step back and start building towards
01:03the future like you said earlier you heard people talking about like oh the celtics should probably
01:07just go in the tank and try to get high draft stock because the roster is so old it's mind-bending
01:13how quickly life can change and how quickly in sports you can go from top of the world to bottom of
01:18the mountain so teddy uh what is your reaction to this i mean it's been less than 20 hours and
01:24jason tatum has already had surgery yeah i mean i'm sitting there oh man it's it's awesome to
01:27you wish i was supposed to play for a team i could get into surgery like that i remember those i miss
01:31those days um i'm just i'm looking uh i'm actually you know googling you know uh what the protocol is
01:37for rehab for for this stuff yep so uh you know uh if i was fitzy i'd read you know week one week two
01:43week three i'm not gonna do that i'm just i'm just gonna tell you there there is there are
01:48theories out there that uh this is you know maybe a nine to ten month injury yeah that you know you
01:55can be back to doing your kind of full kind of participating whatever you know maybe not playing
02:01in the nba for the regular person from anywhere from uh month seven to nine so if you kind of look
02:07at that you go maybe there's a chance just a chance if the celtics uh you know need a little boost at
02:14the end of next year that maybe he can come in and give you a little uh something at the end of next year
02:19you
