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 Celtics won’t consider moving Garnett to the Clippers for any other combination of players, and won’t revisit the talks unless Bledsoe and Jordan are in the [...]
February 20, 2013 Nick Sannicandro Kevin Garnett, The Morning Dump Some people might not like this, but I loved it. After Doc Rivers had an emotional ending to his press conference, Rajon Rondo came in and was defiant and angry. Make no mistake, he was just as emotional as Doc was, but it manifested itself in this icy death glare when he was asked if [...]
June 10, 2012 John - Red's Army Rajon Rondo, Videos Ladies and Gentlemen, We stand here tonight in our green and white gear… perhaps reading on a cell phone at a bar… on a tablet at some Starbucks, or on a computer at home… as a fan-base hoping for history. We stand here tonight, as a diverse group of young and old… black and [...]
June 9, 2012 John - Red's Army Videos 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. There are certain favors you ask at great, great risk. Such as: Borrow large sums of money. Help move a piano.

June 9, 2012 John - Red's Army Doc Rivers, The Morning Dump One thing to notice, the chant nearly tailed off a couple of times, but some group somewhere stepped up and kept it going. Very nice moment, Celtics fans. Nicely done. [...]
June 8, 2012 John - Red's Army Gametime, Videos Doc Rivers has this way of gauging the temperature of the room, and saying just the right thing to get people’s attention. Remember back in April when we all watched the Celtics lose to the Bulls by 7 and we chalked it up to just another “not enough in the tank” game? Doc came out [...]
June 8, 2012 John - Red's Army Celtics News, Doc Rivers LeBron James was out of this world good last night. He hit every shot he took. He was an unstoppable force. But it's the TYPE of shots he hit that are leaving the Celtics a little more comfortable with his performance than one might think. After the game, Doc said I wasn't really okay with [...]
June 8, 2012 John - Red's Army Recaps Sometimes I read things LeBron says and I have a reaction and I think… I'd better go back and read this again just to make sure i'm not overreacting. This was one of those times. But no matter how much I read this, it still sounds a whole lot like excuses. "It's been challenging not just for [...]
June 7, 2012 John - Red's Army Recaps CSNNE does a wonderful job getting us ready for tonight’s game with a nice, four-minute video contrasting the introductions of each newly constructed Celtics and Heat team. It’s pretty much all you need to know about each team, and why one has found success while the other is… well… struggling with the whole thing right [...]
June 7, 2012 John - Red's Army Celtics News As always with these, there are fun things to look for that aren't always visible in normal speed or even some of the replays. My favorite? It comes at the :26-28 stretch. It's a guy in the stands between Pierce's shoulder and LeBron's shoulder. After the shot goes in. It's a double face palm. [...]
