The Boston Celtics opened their Summer League with a 73-65 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder, though the score of these games barely matters. Let’s get right to the early assessments.  First, the returning players: E’Twaun Moore:  His shot was spotty early. He hit a few nice mid-range jumpers, but he had a tough time [...]

It’s really a minor housekeeping move, but the Celtics did the expected quite quickly and signed all 3 of their new rookies. Terms of the deal were not announced, but the base salary for first-round picks was slotted at $1.089 million for Sullinger (21st overall pick) and $1.045 million (22nd). First-round draft picks can be [...]

We’re a bit obsessed with Kevin Garnett, because Kevin Garnett is the trigger to the entire Celtics offseason.  He’s also a freak of nature who played some amazingly great basketball at 36 years old, after 17 years in the league, at the end of a compressed season that killed everyone physically.  The simple fact is, he’s still good, [...]

JaJuan Johnson wore Adidas during his rookie campaign with the Celtics. He may wear Adidas on the court, but according to JaJuan’s personal Instagram he is quite the Air Jordan aficionado.  Over the past few weeks, JaJuan has posted pics of his latest pick ups.  He picked up a pair of Retro Concord XI’s, Retro Chicago [...]

So we're all still a little upset over last night.  I get that.  It was probably the worst playoff game we've ever watched.  The score at halftime was worse than some Div. 3 games.  And today, we're all saying a lot of things that we may or may not regret.  With that in mind, here [...]

Twitter / @GwashNBAGlobe: No KG or Pierce tonight vs … via kwout With Ray Allen, Rajon Rondo and Mickael Pietrus already not traveling to Atlanta, Doc Rivers has also decided to hold out Paul Pierce AND Kevin Garnett so they can get some rest.  So…. this will be a hoot, won't it?  Here's my guess [...]

Well folks, we might be able to point to this game as the end of the new Big 3 era.  Because effort and execution get no worse than this.  The Celtics let the Pistons hang around for 3 quarters and then they crapped themselves as they got out-scored 25-16 in the fourth quarter…. leading to [...]

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 [...]

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. If Garnett is unable to play, the C's may very well call upon Johnson to get the starting nod. The Celtics may also consider Chris Wilcox, but [...]
