Hope you're ready for some photos from last night's Game 1 vs the Hawks-because I've got a bunch of them for you. Top play GIFs after the jump….. [...]

The only surprise here is that WCVB reporter Mike Dowling is the first to break the news. [...]

The Hawks should know better than to give anyone on the Celtics, especially Kevin Garnett, any shred of motivation.  Every answer the Hawks give should be in deference to a great opponent.  Something like "We played a great game against a great team.  We had a lot of things working well, we executed our game [...]

The official who tossed Rajon Rondo from last night's game is no stranger to controversy, publicity or the Celtics.

Beer… check.  Takeout… check.  Celtics jersey… check. The only thing missing from tonight's playoff opener with the Hawks was… the Celtics. The C's came out flatter than (insert teenage joke here) and could never recover. The result: an 83-74 Hawks victory in Game 1. It was a story we've seen before. The Celtics dug themselves [...]
