The Celtics will bring in another group on June 6, including big men [...]

Once upon a time, the Celtics flirted with bringing in Michael Sweetney… a gigantic individual who ate himself out of the league.  And there was Thomas Hamilton back in '95-'96, a guy so big he could have used his social security number as his jersey number.   And now there might be… Saskatchewan Roughriders Offensive Tackle Matt [...]

Via CelticKicks This is apparently the ad running in China for KG's sneakers. You know I want one of those jerseys, right?  C'mon… we gotta have someone who reads us in China that wants to send me one. [...]

An Orlando TV station is reporting that Dwight Howard is close to signing a two-year extension with the Orlando Magic. Crap. Apparently the two sides spent the holiday weekend hammering out the details. Crap. Howard continues to say that he wants to build a winner in Orlando: "I'm not trying to run behind nobody like [...]

Mike Brown was considered a leading candidate, but then he took the Los Angeles Lakers head job. Dwane Casey, Lawrence Frank and Brian Shaw are now said to be on [...]

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 seriously considered the Celtics, a lot,’’ said Brewer, who ended up signing a two-year deal with Dallas and played in 13 regular-season games and six postseason [...]

Despite the Finals starting-up this Tuesday, many Celtics fans, including myself, have little interest in a Celtics-less series. So who will the C's take with the 25th pick in this year's draft?

Robert Parish with a statue-worthy bitch-slapping of Kareem. Mr. Perfect Scott Wedman was 11-11. How about that crowd? An intense [...]
