I'll keep this short and sweet so we can all go watch the Super Bowl.   The Celtics built an 8 point first quarter lead… which was also the spread at the half and after the third quarter.  But the C's pulled away in the 4th behind 10 points in the quarter from Paul Pierce [...]

A lot of people have high hopes for JaJuan Johnson.  Maybe that's because, physically, he resembles one of his new teammates.  His jumper has a certain visual similarity to a certain intense, vocal teammate who shall remain nameless in this sentence lest people think I'm comparing their overall abilities.  Ok, fine, I'll say it:  He's [...]

Tommy's happy the lockout is over 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 – The mid-level exception for non-taxpaying teams will have a maximum length of four years every season (instead of alternating at [...]

Kevin Garnett still loves Minnesota.  He loves it so much that's he's actually helping the Timberwolves by working out with what they hope is their franchise point guard.   Six thousand miles from home and perhaps even farther yet from his first NBA game, Timberwolves guard Ricky Rubio has prepped in Los Angeles for his [...]

Yep, Manny Pacquiao wearing a Kevin Garnett alternate road jersey (via WEEI) to play some pretty terrible basketball (but still.. the shot went in so… I guess I can go F off) is the closest thing we're getting to Celtics basketball at the moment.  But hey… there's no way I'm going to leave you with [...]

Earlier today, we highlighted a report quoting a league source as KG [expletive]ing things up.  It's fun little image of KG glowering across the table, cursing and generally being KG.  Except it wasn't like that. There are no reports from the session, but it’s been confirmed that only the executive committee is here for the [...]

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.  This fight has grown nastier, more personal, in the past weeks. Privately, management insists that everything changed when the Boston Celtics’ Kevin Garnett(notes) walked into the negotiating room on Oct. [...]

AP photo via Daylife.com I'll start by answering the headline:  no, they didn't.  At least they didn't on their own.  And they may not have at all.   Welcome to the lockout "he-said, he-said." TrueHoop has the story As Stern has recounted a dozen times since, not long after what was supposed to have been [...]

From a piece I wrote on Crossover Chronicles about Kevin Garnett and Tim Duncan: With each passing day, with each additional cancellation, fans that had recently been falling for the sport turn more apathetic.  And while hardcore fans will remain, the casual fans who would learn about the game, its history, and its best players, [...]

The Celtics and Clippers are featured in this most extensive video yet of 2K12 gameplay.   What can I say about this?  It looks awesome.  From KG's typical chest-pound routine to start the game to Pierce and KG screaming on the jumbo-tron… it starts out perfectly.  The Pierce step back jumper at the 1:24 mark [...]
