081: Mark Heisler: Forbes/LA Daily News | Boston Celtics | Los Angeles Lakers | Paul Pierce | Washington Wizards

December 7th -- what better way to kick off the big move to Sunday afternoons for the Celtics Beat podcast than to have our return to Sundays than Larry Bird's birthday.  It was another jammed packed week in the world of Boston Celtics basketball.  There were downs, such as another catastropic collapse Tuesday night against the Atlanta Hawks, but there were ups as well.  Two wins in a row! And oh yeah, didn't Rajon Rondo and Kobe Bryant have breakfast?

Larry H. Russell is the host for the show, which promises to be a good one.  Two very special guests will be bringing their knowledge and expertise to the show.  The first is legendary scribe of all things Los Angeles sports, Mark Heisler.  Mark has been covering the Lakers for over 30 years and is currently writing for Forbes.  Mark and LHR will discuss Friday night's Lakers-Celtics matchup at the Garden, as well as all things Lakers.  Is it really that bad out in Lakerland? Is Jim Buss as bad as they say he is? And what do Lakers fans think of the overall state of the franchise? Really, what lies ahead for the NBA's glamour franchise?

Then of course, Paul Pierce returns to Boston as a member of the Washington Wizards.  LHR will preview Sunday's big game and give his prediction as well.

LHR will also wrap the loaded show up by going Around the NBA in 5.

So be sure to download another edition of Celtics Beat.  Available this Sunday on iTunes and Stitcher.   Powered by CLNS Radio.
