Twitter / @scott_souza: Summary, Brandon Bass out … via kwout I remember them saying KG was grabbing at his hip during the Bulls game, and it turns out that he's having some problem with his hip flexor.  So KG's doubtful for tomorrow.   Mickael Pietrus is having a knee issue.  I'm not sure what that's [...]

After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters I'm not going to bother going through them all individually.  I'm sorry KG gets swept in this because he had a decent game.. but even he needed to do more.  If you're the only guy hitting them, then [...]

After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters Rajon Rondo:  His numbers looked ok in the box score and he certainly had some amazing moments in the game.  But he got too passive down the stretch for my liking.  I know the Lakers have trees back [...]

Most of his passes were crisp and he played under control the entire night. No signs of rust from the wrist injury.  Paul Pierce: I generally [...]

Twitter / @SherrodbCSN: The only #Celtics not expe … via kwout So Brandon Bass is in… there's no surprise (or not so surprise) injury to Jermaine O'Neal…. Rajon Rondo hasn't had a setback… and Paul Pierce will not "rest" so he can pass Larry Bird against the Lakers.   All things considered, I think this [...]

After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters Rajon Rondo:  I know we want guys to be robots and step right back into playing without missing a beat, but that's not how it works.  Doc said it best last night… it's his second game playing after [...]

Here are the injury updates, courtesy ESPN Boston's Chris Forsberg: Celtics center Jermaine O'Neal missed practice Saturday to undergo a right-knee MRI and is a game-time decision for Sunday's matinee versus the Memphis Grizzlies.  Coach Doc Rivers initially suggested that the MRI was on O'Neal's left knee and was a regularly scheduled visit to monitor [...]

After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters Avery Bradley:  He has adjusted his game thanks to Doc Rivers, who has told him to mimic Andre Miller: "Instead of looking at the ball, we told him, just look at your man. Right when he turns his [...]
