Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big story line. Because there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. If the Celtics got to a point where they wanted to make a move on Russell, it would surely have to cost them Marcus Smart. Smart [...]

With the Celtics off the last couple of days, let’s check out some other NBA highlights-both on & off the court. First up, enjoy Steph Curry’s near triple-double night against the Washington Wizards. The Dubs won, again, and inched closer to overcoming the 1996 Bulls’ record 72 wins. Then, we visit LaLa Land where the [...]

Get a load of this a-hole, overtly showing up coach Tyronn Lue. It’s one thing for a superstar to advise his teammates on the bench, but it’s another to stand up and patrol the sidelines. I’m not sure how long LeBron played coach last night, but even if he did so for just a few [...]

What’s slightly discouraging for Celtics fans is the way Boston has struggled recently against top-tier competition. A team that routinely kept things close earlier in the [...]

The Celtics got their doors blown off in LA tonight as the Clippers beat them 114-90. We all know L.A. has a high-powered offense, but their defense, ranked 6th in the league, was also a huge factor tonight. Deandre Jordan and company held the Celts to 34.8% shooting for the night. The Clippers’ offense was [...]

Bill Walton appeared on The Vertical recently and told a whale of a tale about how he landed in Boston, despite his body being riddled with injuries (transcript via Mass Live): “And then I got to the Boston Celtics, and the biggest problem was that I still had to pass a physical because there’s no [...]
