A. Sherrod Blakely, Greg Bedard & Conor Ryan join John Zannis on today's episode of the Boston Sports Beat presented by BetUs.com to discuss daily news surrounding the Celtics, Patriots & Bruins.

Sherrod and John react to the Celtics slow start to the season with a 2-3 record. New Head Coach Ime Udoka has called them out for their lack of effort. Udoka specifically called out Jaylen Brown after the Wizards loss on Wednesday calling his inconsistent play "mind-boggling". Marcus Smart has struggled through 5 games averaging 7.4 ppg, 25% fg, 23.5 3pt %, 4.0 rpg, 4.8 apg. The Celtics (2-3) will rematch Washington Wizards (4-1) Saturday at 5pm.

Greg and John preview Sunday's game between the New England patriots (3-4) and LA Chargers (4-2) Sunday at 4:05 pm ET.

Conor and John recap the Bruins early season struggled. Boston is 3-3 and lost back to back games this week vs the Florida Panthers (7-0) & Carolina Hurricanes (6-0). Can they turn it around and avoid falling into a early season hole?
