This just in: the Spurs are REALLY good. Between their incredible chemistry and remarkable passing, it was just too much for the Celtics to handle. Whether it was the FIFTY EIGHT points inside the paint or the 8-of-16  shooting from downtown, the Spurs just showed the Celtics what a title contender looks like a 112-100 [...]

The team announced today that they have waived Darko Milicic.  Darko’s mother is ill, and he has decided to go home to spend time with her and his family. “Darko has asked us to release him so he could deal with a personal matter,” said Celtics President of Basketball Operations Danny Ainge. “The whole Celtics [...]

Turns out, Sullinger hasn’t cried (at least that he has admitted publicly), and the experience has been rewarding for him [...]

By the end of the night, Taylor was 52-for-108 (27-for-71 from the 3-point line) and he’d established a new collegiate record. Before his squad took the floor Tuesday night, Taylor met with a few teammates for a pregame devotional. It was the first time that Taylor, a sophomore at the Division III school, had ever [...]

Dating myself with a Six Million Dollar Man reference?  You bet your ass I am.  My favorite part about that open is their “technology” in the mid-70′s is dwarfed by most “get it free with a contract” smart phones. One year ago, we were “optimistic” there’d be an NBA season.  We were not “optimistic” that [...]
