The Team

Last night Harvard’s Ivy League walls were  invaded by the Ball Up Street Ball Team.  Ball Up travels the country to take on each cities’ best players.  Their travels and exploits are documented by a film crew for the Fox Sports Net reality series. The team is an all star cast of street ball legends; [...]

The NBA Summer League’s official You Tube account caught-up with Doc Rivers in Vegas today. Doc was asked what he thinks it will be like coaching against Austin, how he prepares on game days and what he’d be doing if he wasn’t an NBA coach:   [...]

Doc Rivers spoke to the media before the Celtics-Kings game yesterday and touched on a number of topics.  One was the status of Paul Pierce’s knee. “He’ll be fine,” Doc said.  ”With his injury, he had to rest it.  He should not have been playing, to be healthy.  The only way to be healthy is [...]

The question was simple, and the reply was genuine. “How excited are you for Jason [Terry], to have a real 6th man? “Oh I love it.” It was a quick, reply.  He went on “We really needed a guy… that could create his shot.  It was one of our big needs.  Again Jason was….. we [...]

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 deal originally had Phoenix and New Orleans as facilitators, but that came apart late yesterday afternoon Pacific time. Late last night, Portland became the third team [...]

As for JJJ’s trade demand, Steve Bulpett is hearing the “Rockets like him and will keep him.”  Second year guys who average 3.2 ppg in 8 mpg generally don’t have much say in where they play. For those hoping E’Twaun Moore resigns with the Celtics, forget it. CBA rules prevent him from resigning here for [...]

E’Twaun Moore played perhaps his best game of both summer leagues against the Bulls.  Moore dropped 25 points on 10-19 shooting, burying several jumpers with confidence while sprinkling in some nice drives to the basket.  He still has work to do as a PG, as evidenced by his difficulty of simply making a post-entry pass [...]

It’s been a while since I posted some pics & GIFs. Fortunately, my buddy HTT has put together a few from last night’s C’s-Bulls Summer League game in Vegas. The Celtics’ squad won again, 79-74 behind E’Twaun Moore’s 25 points. Here are a few GIFs from the game.. [...]

The BallUp Streetball Tour is coming to Boston. And Boston Celtic Brandon Bass will be a “guest coach” for the night. The BallUp guys have been entertaining crowds with their high-flying dunks, nasty dribbling and slick passes for years. The team features Grayson “The Professor” Boucher, Larry “Bone Collector” Williams, and my favorite player, as [...]

The Celtics began their Las Vegas summer league play with a throttling over the Atlanta Hawks. Fab Melo opened some eyes and dropped some jaws with some inspiring play while Jared Sullinger once again played very well. Check out compilations of both Melo and Sullinger as well as a loud dunk from JaJuan Johnson. Fab [...]
