Coach (Rivers) has been giving me a lot of confidence [...]

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.

Kris Joseph scored 28 points and had 8 rebounds and Fab Melo blocked four shots in their NBDL debut last night with the Maine Red Claws… and that is video of the entire game. One game into the D-League season, this is playing out pretty much like I thought it would.  Joseph is going to [...]

  Great win for the Celtics last night at TD Garden as they beat OKC 108-100. Of the games I’ve been to so far  this year, last night’s had easily the best atmosphere. The crowd was fired-up and it definitely had a playoff feel, even though it’s only November. Here are some great pics & [...]
