We often wonder what opposing teams, their beat reporters and bloggers are saying about (ex) Celtics. Here’s a look at some enemy chatter from New York. His teams were annoyingly 40–20 against the Knicks in games he was active, and it seemed like the hit the game-winning shot in approximately 39 of them. He pranced [...]

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. Rozier acknowledges that while playing against the likes of All-Star Thomas, All-Defense first-teamer Bradley, and defensive hound Smart each day, he has no choice but to [...]

Returns on the first few practices are in, and there’s actual basketball stuff to discuss. MassLive’s Jay King and I talk about some notes from the Celtics’ second day of training camp, including: how the team will bring Jaylen Brown along slowly at power forward, how Jae Crowder’s shooting is drawing compliments, and a couple of [...]

MassLive’s Jay King and RedsArmy’s John Karalis get into Isaiah Thomas’ nutrition, Al Horford’s embrace of Boston’s future, Brad Stevens loosening up (maybe), Avery Bradley’s love of KG, and, [...]

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. As Amir Johnson made his way to the podium during the Boston Celtics’ Media day on Monday, he didn’t waste any time addressing the biggest change [...]

Isaiah Thomas rocked a Celtics colorway of the Nike Hypershift at today’s Celtics media day. Being a sneakerhead, I scanned the internet for a closer look. What I found is what appears to be a new player exclusive sneaker for the Celts’ guard. On the tongue, there appears to be a new logo that resembles [...]

Media Day is the unofficial start to the 2016-17 basketball season. All I can say is… thank god. That was one long-ass off-season.
