I don't want to dwell on this whole thing. I just want to move on and see how this all affects this year's team.  I mean… we've still got a championship to win. But I wanted to repost this… which I made a couple of years ago.  Good for OKC for getting a tough bastard [...]

The Globe's Gary Washburn spoke with Nate Robinson about the trade with Oklahoma City. Here's what Nate had to say about Perk: Nate on KPerkins: "He's taking it pretty hard because he's been here 8 years. He was real emotional, crying. I feel bad for him. He's been in real tied in with Rondo and [...]

  There we were… 7:45 to go in the 3rd, the C's looking sluggish, and the ball in the captain's hand… Time to wake up the crowd, go on a run, and win this game! BOOOM.  THUNDER DUNK IN THE LANE!!   That cut the lead to six.  Then the C's got a stop, scored, [...]

(AP Photo/Charles Krupa) 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. "Veteran teams should know better, and we didn't," said Doc Rivers. "You could see it, on both ends, there was no urgency the entire [...]

How the hell did the Celtics lose to an OKC Thunder team missing Kevin Durant and Jeff Green? a) Weak effort b) Lack of rebounding c) Poor free throw shooting d) All of the above Other observations: Rajon Rondo sat the final 3 minutes with a sore hamstring.

Update – Via OKC beat reporter Darnell Mayberry: Kevin Durant is questionable tonight against the Celtics with a sprained left ankle. Jeff Green is out tonight with the same injury. If KD can't go, and it's looking like he won't, Scott Brooks will start James Harden at small forward with RW, Thabo, Serge and Krstic. [...]

     So tonight, I’ll be heading to the Garden to watch my Boston Celtics take on the OKC Thunder. Occasionally, I am lucky enough to get some seats right above the visitor’s tunnel from a season-ticket holder friend of mine. And of course when you get seats like that, you get a great chance [...]

Photo by David Sherman/NBAE via Getty Images You might not have been paying attention to the Knicks-Timberwolves game last night.  In fact, I'd question your sanity if you were.  But you actually missed something:  Kevin Love's 31 point, 31 rebound night. Love outrebounded Portland (30), OKC (30) and Washington (30) last night.   He's pretty [...]

  Remember a year ago, when Glen Davis was still chomping the offensive glass like a monster… but pissing us all off by going right back up in the trees and getting his shot fed back to him?  Yeah, he probably does too… because last night he made THE key play of the game… and [...]

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. "Playing against the Celtics, they make you look at yourself in different ways because they challenge you in so many ways," Brooks said. "They're a physical team, [...]
