About this episode

Jay and BRobb discuss the NBA's punishment of the Clippers and its implications for the Celtics.

Jay and BRobb react to the NBA dropping the hammer on the Clippers after the Kawhi Leonard probe and what it means for the Celtics' future pick from the Clippers. Yesterday the NBA annouced theihas ruled on the Los Angeles Clippers in for salary cap circumvention investigations on Kawhi Leonard after yearlong probe -- stripping the franchise of 5 first-round picks, issuing a $30 million fine to owner Steve Ballmer and suspensions for Ballmer, Lawrence Frank and Gillian Zucker, sources tell ESPN. Kawhi Leonard will have to pay $700,000 in restitution for improper benefits by the Clippers for his uncle and former business rep, Dennis Robertson. No contract void or suspension for Leonard. And Robertson -- who was fired by Leonard in June -- is being banned by the NBA from all business dealings.
