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. As for the Celtics, Murphy's interest in the C's peaked following the series of trades Boston made on Thursday. Prior to that, another league source indicated Murphy [...]

I often wonder what opposing teams, their beat reporters and bloggers are saying about the Celtics after playing trading with the Celtics. Here's a dose of 'enemy chatter' from Oklahoma. Most of that centered around Green and his starting power forward spot. There always appeared to just be something missing there. He was undersized, didn’t [...]

It was a busy summer for Danny Ainge.  After working out deals for Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, he had to find their back-ups and fill the hole left by an injured Kendrick Perkins.  And he did a pretty good job of it too, constructing a roster that was deep just about everywhere except one: [...]

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. "You just hope [Celtics president of basketball operations] Danny [Ainge] and Doc know what they're doing," said Pierce. "We put our trust in them, so it is [...]

Whew. It still hasn’t all sunken in. I could go on a serious rant right now, but that’s not why I’m posting this. It’s an extremely sad day for me. I got to know Perk and his family a little bit, and they are dynamite folks. I wish them nothing but the best. And Marquis [...]

Shaquille O'Neal took to UStream this weekend to give us his best… ummm… rendition of Aaliyah's "Let Me Know.  What do you think?  Not a bad effort for the big man. Bonus points for the water show…. I guess. But is it better than what I think is the gold standard for goofy web-cam lip [...]

I often wonder what opposing teams, their beat reporters and bloggers are saying about the Celtics after playing the Celtics. Here's a dose of 'enemy chatter' from Oklahoma City. With Durant dropping 37 points in Boston, I can understand the confusion for Garnett, but it has nothing to do with the whistle. Garnett has a [...]

The Thunder beat the Celtics 109-104 thanks to two late three-pointers by Jeff Green. The referees also helped. OKC shot twice as many free throws as the Celtics (34-17). It's been awhile since I bitched about the officiating, but tonight it's justified. The Cs were just as aggressive as the Thunder, but they simply didn't [...]
