After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters Rajon Rondo:  How can you argue with a triple double night?  Rondo now has 16 triple doubles in his career (including playoffs). Paul Pierce:  Something is wrong with him.  He's either hurt, or something is wrong off the [...]

Blow-outs are boring. Who needs 'em? As we (and our Twitter followers) were applauding the stat lines of Rajon Rondo (15 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists) and Chris Wilcox (13 rebounds, 2 steals) from the comfort of a 15-point lead with 2:27 remaining in this game, the Bucks slapped us back to reality with a [...]

For the first 12 minutes of this game, the Celtics played inspired, efficient basketball. It showed on the scoreboard as the they raced out to a 28-12 lead. The rest of the game was a giant, hot pile of ______, but the Celtics made enough plays to win it, 86-83 over the Cavs. Had the [...]

Per the Boston Globe: Brandon Bass will be available for the Celtics when they meet the Cleveland Cavaliers at the Quicken Loans Arena Tuesday night. After going through his first full practice since being injured Feb. 10, Bass said he felt “no pain” in his left knee. Bass, who missed seven games with the injury, [...]

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. Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo finished second to San Antonio’s Tony Parker in the Skills Challenge as part of festivities at All-Star Saturday night in Orlando.  Rondo [...]

After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters Avery Bradley:  Not a bad performance on the offensive end, though he's still nowhere near good enough to be a primary ball handler yet.  And I guess we're all looking at Avery's 3 blocks and not Westbrooks 31 [...]

After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters Avery Bradley:  He was actually hitting jumpers last night.  JUMPERS!!!  If Bradley can do that more often, then we've got ourselves a decent combo guard.  His ball handling/passing/decision making still need work, but first things first.  The jumpers [...]

After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters Rajon Rondo:  You just can't lose your cool like that.  Maybe Rondo's frustrated with the way things have been going… maybe he's pissed off at someone in particular… but this is a meltdown that can't happen.  And yes, [...]

After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters Rajon Rondo:  After two huge scoring games, Rajon settled back into more of an all-around mode.  A 17-8-7 night is pretty damn good.  Of course, that's not good enough for some people, but Rondo was doing a bit [...]

So after a bevy of disheartening injury news yesterday, there seems to be better news today on the C's injury front.  Kevin Garnett (hip flexor) did participate in shoot around and is being called "probable" for tonight.  Mickael Pietrus (right knee) said he's definitely playing tonight, but what he says and what Doc Rivers says [...]
