It’s really a minor housekeeping move, but the Celtics did the expected quite quickly and signed all 3 of their new rookies. Terms of the deal were not announced, but the base salary for first-round picks was slotted at $1.089 million for Sullinger (21st overall pick) and $1.045 million (22nd).

The Celtics had come within minutes of winning Banner 18 on the home floor of the most hated rival in the NBA.  There were whispers all season long if this was it for the New Big Three Era.  After all, it was year three of the three-year plan.  Two of those big three members (Paul Piece [...]

The Celtics will be considering all available options when it comes to helping rebuild.  We’ve seen a number of names thrown around already.  But one interesting option has largely flown under the radar since an early report of interest nearly a month ago.  Danny Green. Green is a restricted free agent, and it will be [...]

  As confident as Doc Rivers might be that Ray Allen will be back, Ray will make the Celtics sweat a bit and give other teams a shot to secure his services. The 36-year-old free-agent guard will visit the Miami Heat on Thursday and the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday, according to a source, and [...]

Chris Haynes of CSNNW.com has the report: The unrestricted free-agent center, Marcus Camby, has narrowed his choices to the New York Knicks, Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs, Boston Celtics, Dallas Mavericks and the Houston Rockets, a league source told CSNNW.com. All of these teams and then some, called Camby’s agent, Rick Kaplan, shortly after July [...]

In this free agent frenzy, “take his time” could mean 24 hours. These teams can’t wait too long on guys. Doc Rivers told Marc Spears the Celtics “want to bring the band back together.” Remember Nenad Krstic? He is leaving CSKA Moscow. The Celtics still hold his Bird rights. If Brandon Bass were to leave, [...]
