The Team

Before the Celtics face off against the Bulls in Chicago tonight, let’s take one last look at some of the highlights from Saturday’s win over the Bucks.  From Rondo’s slick reverse, left-handed lay-up to Paul Pierce and Monta Ellis’ mini-duel in the fourth quarter, to Jeff Green’s encouraging game, it’s all below. Jeff Green vs [...]

C’s come away with a big road win in Milwaukee last night, beating the Bucks 106-100. Boston is now in Chicago preparing for their Monday night game with the Bulls. Tip-off at the United Center is at 8pm EST. Enjoy some photos/GIFs from last night’s win courtesy of Sina & HoopChina:     [...]

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. And nobody seemed to relish this fiesty, bad-boy side of Green more than Kevin Garnett. “Jeff’s a really, really nice guy,” Garnett said. “Some nights, you just [...]

The 1st half of tonight’s game subjected Celtics fans to more of the same: turnovers (10) opponents points in the paint (20+) and poor defense. Samuel Dalembert had taken 6 shots all season coming into tonight, yet found himself with 3 dunks alone in the first quarter. It was the same bad rotation/poor pick and [...]

Sean Grande, aka the radio voice of the Boston Celtics, just tweeted this breaking news: Here it is: Jason Terry and Brandon Bass move into the starting lineup for the Celtics tonight, replacing Courtney Lee and Jared Sullinger. — Sean Grande (@SeanGrandePBP) November 11, 2012   I like it. Shake things up a bit, and [...]

Another frustrating loss for the Celtics last night. This time to the Sixers. Despite Rajon Rondo’s 20 assists, C’s fall 106-100 at the Garden. Boston will try to redeem themselves tonight in Milwaukee. Tip-off against the Bucks is at 8:30pm EST. Enjoy some game photos & GIFs via HTT & HoopChina in the meantime.  Postgame [...]

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. The 106-100 loss to the Sixers on Friday night was yet another game in which Green’s impact was for the most part, non-existent. In about 18 minutes, [...]

There’s been lots of chatter (too much actually) on the early season struggles of Jeff Green.  While it’s far too early to make any significant judgments, especially with such small sample sizes, it’s always good to at least take a look into certain patterns or issues.  Green is not the only new(ish) member of the [...]

Celtics eeked out another win last night, mostly due to their tough defense, 100-94 in OT at the Garden. The Wizards just would not go quietly into the night. C’s are now off until tomorrow night when the Sixers come to town. Tip-off at TD Garden is at 7:30pm. Enjoy some pics & GIFs from [...]

If you enjoyed 80s basketball, you’ll enjoy reading Grantland’s oral history on the Houston Rockets: The Greatest Team that Never Was.  Here’s something I didn’t know; Red Auerbach wanted Ralph Sampson to leave college early for the Celtics. Had Sampson obliged, Robert Parish and Kevin McHale might never have worn green. After Sampson averaged 14.9 [...]
