Celtics drop their 2nd game in a row-tonight they lose to the Spurs in San Antonio, 103-88. This was basically more of the same from Boston: turnovers, poor defense and the inability to make shots when it mattered. Tony Parker easily won the battle of marquee PG’s, lighting-up Rondo and the C’s for 22 points. [...]
December 15, 2012 KWAPT Gametime, Recaps, The Team The Boston Celtics came out firing on all cylinders tonight and never looked back. C’s beat the Sixers 92-79 at TD Garden. The Celtics were definitely all business tonight after losing a real tough one in Philly on Friday. Boston’s smothering defense held Philly to just 28 first-half points. It was the usual suspects as [...]
December 8, 2012 KWAPT Brandon Bass, Celtics News, Chris Wilcox, Gametime, Jeff Green, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Rajon Rondo, Recaps, The Team The Celtics pasted the Portland Trailblazers at TD Garden, 96-78. Courtney Lee and Jeff Green both stepped-up, and Kevin Garnett was vintage KG. He scored his 10 points on a variety of bank shots, fadeaways and sweet jumpers. Ticket also finished with 5 boards & 4 assists in 23 minutes. Jeff Green was aggressive from [...]
The Celtics hold on in Orlando tonight to beat the Magic 116-110 in OT. Looked like the Celts would continue their stellar play from Friday night early, but a nightmare 3rd quarter where Boston’s defense vanished and Orlando shot the lights out made this a nail biter. The Green: Rondo came out of the gate on [...]
November 25, 2012 KWAPT Brandon Bass, Doc Rivers, Gametime, Jared Sullinger, Jeff Green, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Rajon Rondo, Recaps, The Team This one started off as we all thought it would-C’s looked tired & sloppy and were out-hustled by the Nets. After 1Q, Brooklyn was up 31-26 and Boston had given-up 50% FG and already committed 6 turnovers. Things then started to turn around a bit in the 2nd. Behind some fantastic play from Bass [...]
November 15, 2012 KWAPT Gametime, Recaps, The Team The 1st half of tonight’s game subjected Celtics fans to more of the same: turnovers (10) opponents points in the paint (20+) and poor defense. Samuel Dalembert had taken 6 shots all season coming into tonight, yet found himself with 3 dunks alone in the first quarter. It was the same bad rotation/poor pick and [...]
November 10, 2012 KWAPT Gametime, Recaps, The Team Despite some nice play early on, and a promising burst at the beginning of the 2nd half, the C’s were inconsistent this evening. They fall at home to Philly 88-79. Turnovers were once again a problem as the Celtics had 7 of them before the end of the 1st quarter. The offense looked a bit [...]
