The Team

Rajon Rondo returned from a 1-game injury absence to lead the Celtics past the Raptors 107-89 with 20 assists.  Jason Terry (20) and Paul Pierce (19) paced the Celtics balanced scoring effort as the C’s finally put together a wire-to-wire shellacking this season.  The green looked a bit green in the second quarter when they [...]

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. Garnett is averaging 30.1 minutes per game through nine contests, his lowest average since coming back from knee surgery during the 2009-10 campaign (29.9 minutes per game). [...]

Celtics fell to the Nets in Brooklyn last night, 102-97. Boston will try to get back to their winning ways tomorrow afternoon against the Raptors. Game time is at 12:30pm EST. Enjoy some pics & GIFs from the game via HoopChina & Sina…       [...]

We often wonder what opposing teams, their beat reporters and bloggers are saying about the Celtics. Here’s a look at some enemy chatter from Brooklyn. “Did you see Paul Pierce hit that pull-up 3-pointer (with 24 seconds left to get them within two)?” Johnson asked reporters. “I had in my mind that he was probably gonna do [...]

Jared Sullinger and Jeff Green both broke out some nice kicks from Jordan Brand last night. Sully posted pics of his personalized, player exclusive Air Jordan 2012 Lite on his instagram. They feature a sweet black and Celtic green colorway, and “Sully” stitched onto the tongue. Jeff Green played in the Air Jordan XI “Silver [...]

  This one started off as we all thought it would-C’s looked tired & sloppy and were out-hustled by the Nets. After 1Q, Brooklyn was up 31-26 and Boston had given-up 50% FG and already committed 6 turnovers. Things then started to turn around a bit in the 2nd. Behind some fantastic play from Bass [...]

Last night Rajon Rondo rolled his ankle while wearing a pair of Nike Air Max 360 BB Low sneakers. This model is no longer in production by Nike, however Rondo has inexplicably decided to wear this shoe the past two games. I know rolling your ankle is a common injury in the NBA, however this [...]

  Celtics got a fantastic performance out of their bench to beat the Utah Jazz 98-93 at the Garden last night. The only negative from the game was Rajon Rondo spraining his right ankle. The C’s list him as day-to-day. Boston is right back at it tonight, as they head to Brooklyn to face the [...]

He’s too nice to say it in these words, but this was Green’s fuck-you dunk, a giant middle finger extended in the direction of everyone who has called him out for his lethargic play at times this season. Everyone that is, including Green himself. “It felt great,” he said. “I mean, I have been playing [...]

Ray Allen may be dropping game winning three-pointers for the Heat, but his defense has been awful. His lack of lateral movement was exposed last night by Jamal Crawford. ESPN’s True Hoop analyzed the Heat’s drop in defensive productivity (ranked 25th in the league). Here’s reason #3: 3. The Heat have fallen apart defensively with [...]
