One thing is certain for this year’s tournament: you, the Celtics fans LOVE great plays at the expense of the Miami Heat.  The 2012 final matchup features two huge plays against the rival Heat.  The first was my personal favorite play, Paul Pierce’s cold-blooded three to seal Game 5 down in Miami.  His opponent?  A [...]

Oops. I’m sure there are a bunch of Heat “fans” wondering “When did we trade Ray Allen?” [...]

For those of you who don’t know, I contribute to CrossoverChronicles.com on a regular basis.   All this month, we’re doing a team-a-day preview, accompanied by a Twitter hashtag discussion.  Yesterday was #CelticsDay, and I took over the site.  Here’s a recap for you so you can check out my look ahead to the C’s [...]

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. “I got a little out of focus (on Wednesday),” Christmas told CSNNE.com. “When I was on the floor trying to get the ball, Kevin was talking and [...]

The Celtics took to the court in Istanbul again yesterday, and commenced to throw-around the ol’ pigskin. They also broke out some fresh kicks. Here we get another good look at Rajon’s new Hyperfuse 2012 p.e. in green and yellow. Enjoy the pics which are all via Sina:     [...]

Your votes have been tallied, and in an extremely close poll, Rajon Rondo’s Nike Foamposite “Galaxy” is the winner! Rajon’s Nike Huarache 2K4 Celtics p.e. lost by only 3 votes! The Galaxy Foams were arguably the hottest and craziest release of the last year. To this day, they are still going for upwards of $1,000 on Ebay. I [...]

The name alone is enough to give you chills: Darko. Even for me, when I heard the Celtics signed him, I skipped the analysis for a little bit and just sat to let the anguish of the moment wash over me. We signed Darko. Of course, when you look at it objectively, veteran minimum deals [...]

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. Today’s practice just wrapped up. Quite a bit of live scrimmaging today, a good prep for tomorrow’s first preseason game here in Istanbul. Doc Rivers said that [...]

Here are some pics from the Celtics’ 2nd full day in Istanbul, Turkey. The guys look visibly more rested and seem to be getting along very well. We get a look at KG getting in one of his patented sweat-soaked workouts, some shirtless Rondo for the ladies and a look at a new colorway of [...]

The second final four matchup features two huge three-pointers at different yet equally important times.  One was by The Truth, the other by Rondo.  I know which one I would vote for (hint: the ECF, on the road, is far more significant). #2 Seed: Paul Pierce’s Cold-Blooded Three: The Celtics dropped the first two games [...]
