The Team

Here are some photos of the Big Ticket & wife Brandi that I came across this evening. The photos were taken outside Mr. Chow’s restaurant in Beverly Hills. The other gentleman in the pics is James Pallotta-an executive committee member of C’s ownership. Pallotta you may recall was fined $100G in ’07 for confronting David [...]

Rondo’s Nike Huarache 2K4 Celtics p.e. got more than twice as many votes as Truth’s Xmas p.e.’s in our latest poll. Therefore, the Huaraches move on to round 2. This was easily the biggest margin of victory by any pair of kicks so far. Here are your next two pairs of kicks: [...]

Jared Sullinger has been a Celtic for exactly two weeks and he’s played in four summer league games.  It was our first chance to look at Sullinger as a pro and evaluate him against other pro (or borderline pro) talent.  And what we’ve seen is impressive.  He can play with his back to the basket [...]

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. “Sometimes you’ve got to step out and clear your path a little bit more than you would have done otherwise and just let it be known,” Allen [...]

We’re only 3 games into Summer League, and Fab Melo is already showing he’s proud to be a Celtic. He gets a tweet from a girl in a Heat shirt who says:  ”is Melo really your last name?”  His response is fantastic:   @Anais_Awkk yea it is and u can’t be my fan with a heat [...]

  With the chance to digest the Ray Allen to Miami deal over the last few days, and the reluctance to post a spur of the moment instant reaction article (partially thanks to a crashed Hard Drive) the last few days have given me an opportunity to really think about the details of what went [...]

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 Miami. Was friction with Rondo a factor? I haven’t spoken with him at all. I know when i came down here I texted Paul and Kevin… we shared a similar philosophy. [...]

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 24-year-old guard is rather unflappable. It’s maybe his strongest trait, even beyond his shooting prowess and evolving point guard skills. This is a monster summer for [...]

The Celtics were scuffling along in typical summer league fashion.  They were down by 17 to the Brooklyn Nets… … until undrafted rookie Jonathan Gibson took over. Gibson dropped 17 points off the bench and led the Celtics to a 30-14 fourth quarter and 82-73 Celtics win.  Gibson is a 6’1″ guard out of New [...]

The Celtics summer league edition got off to a nice start by defeating the Oklahoma City Thunder.  First round draft pick Jared Sullinger stood out the most, but E’Twaun Moore, Fab Melo, Kris Jospeh and Sean Williams also had some highlights.  Check out the “GreenLights” below for some of their nice plays, including all of [...]
