CLPod 045: Hayward might be back this year, Jah is free and more

This week, the Boston Celtics might have stumbled a bit against a healthier San Antonio Spurs squad - but they also got some news that ought to have you pretty excited.

But it's officially OK to start thinking about how his return might impact the season (and for that matter, Hayward himself). Join Mark Allison and Topher Lane as they tackle this most interesting of thought experiments, as well as the deal that sent Jahlil Okafor to the Brooklyn Nets, where the rest of the Celts' roster stacks up against the best players in the league, and a whole lot more!
