Recaps

I can’t even get my head wrapped around all of this. I’m still in a glass case of emotion. Paul Pierce’s face sums it up well. But despite the depressing news of Rajon Rondo having a torn ACL hanging over fans like a dark cloud, the Celtics played one of the best games of the [...]

Folks, I’m not even going to insult your intelligence and try to break this all down in a recap. This one will be talked about for a while. I am as disgusted, saddened and frustrated as most every C’s fan is right now. I bleed green and love this organization with my heart and soul. [...]

Sigh. The Celtics clawed their way back from a 10-point deficit in the 4th quarter only to fumble the ball out of bounds on two critical possessions late in the game. It was those  mental mistakes, courtesy Jason Terry and Paul Pierce, that cost them a chance at victory over the Knicks. The final score: [...]

The Celtics ended this game the same way they started it by watching Kyrie Irving drive to the basket essentially unchallenged as he led the Cavs to only their 11th win of the season with a 95-90 win over the plummeting Celtics.  The C’s matched their season high 4 game losing streak with this loss [...]

I would like to thank the NBA schedule makers for slotting this game against the AFC Championship. Like most of New England, I didn’t see a whole lot of this mess in Detroit and I’m better off for that. The Pistons toyed with the Celtics, 103-88. I’m just going to come out and say it: [...]

Questionable calls and shooting woes doom Boston as they lose their 2nd game in a row at home 100-99 to the Bulls. A very bad call + a Joakim Noah won jump ball late in the 4th led to a Kirk Heinrich 15-footer at the 0.02 mark which tied the game at 88. KG then missed a [...]

The 6 game winning streak was fun while it lasted. Tonight the Celtics treated us to one of those mind-numbing, head-shaking, go-through-the-motion performances we’ve come to hate, yet accept. The result: a 90-78 loss to the Hornets. The Celtics managed just 78 points vs one of the league’s worst defenses. I don’t have a shot [...]

I’ll just quote Chuck’s preview: This game screams letdown. The Celtics return from a two-day respite to face one of the worst teams in the league. We know what type of craptastic effort they are capable of in these types of situations. … This game will be closer than it should, but I’m not ready to [...]

The Celtics let a 17 point deficit dwindle down to two but Kevin Garnett & Paul Pierce  refused to let this game slip through their fingers. KG dropped 11 of his 17 in the fourth and Paul Pierce landed a big lay-up plus the foul as the Captain would lead the team with 23 points, as the [...]

The Celtics are an incredibly frustrating team to watch at times, and they did nothing to wash themselves of that image despite a eight point victory over the Phoenix Suns tonight. The Celtics held large double digit leads on the Suns on multiple occasions, only to blow both back down to single digits, or giving up [...]
