The Good – The Celtics, sans Rondo, were able to pull out a huge win away from home against the first place Knicks. The Knicks, who only had 3 home losses before this game and had previously been unbeaten at home their first 10 games, were completely out-hustled, out-smarted, and out-played by the Celtics. The [...]
The Good – The Celtics returned to the starting lineup that brought them 1 game from the Finals last season. They started Bass, Rondo, KG, Pierce and Bradley for the first time this season. This seemed to provide stability not only for the starting five, but for the bench, as Courtney Lee and Jared Sullinger [...]
The Good – KG had one of his most solid games of the season, with 18 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists. He did this in only 27 minutes, while helping to defend Kevin Love, who finished the game with a mediocre 19 points on 6-15 shooting.
The Bad – The Timberwolves have dropped to [...]
The Good – The Celtics showed resiliency by not giving up in the 4th. After trailing by 18 with 11 minutes left in the 4th, the Celtics showed heart and went on a run, cutting the lead to 4 with 2 minutes left in the game. This run happened as ignorant Heat fans started a [...]
The recent addition of Darko Milicic might not elicit huge excitement in Celtics fans, but maybe it should. Darko, who was mulling over playing the season in Europe, decided instead that he wanted to be KG’s whipping boy during practices for the next year, signing a 1 year $854,389 contract. It is a move that [...]
Looks like the key to the Celtics’ off-season has been settled. KG is now in talks with the Celtics for a multi-year deal. Early reports are saying its a 3 year $34 million deal. This is awesome news, although both the numbers and years might be a little high on first reaction. But as [...]
The Good – The Celtics played their heart out for 48 minutes, but seemed to lose it half-way through the 4th (they were right there in the 4th leading 82-81 with about eight minutes in the game). Ray Allen had an awesome first half scoring and ended up with 15 points and 3 3-pointers. Rondo [...]
The Good – KG had a huge game for the Celtics as he scored 26 tough points on 11-20 shooting on a night when for most of the game Rondo and Pierce had trouble making buckets. He gave a huge lift to the C’s at the end of the 3rd quarter when he had [...]
The Good – As much as people might feel the tendency to jump off the bandwagon after this game, they shouldn’t. The Celtics have a horrible record of 2-11 when trying to closeout away from home in the Big 3 era. This game was actually predicted to be a loss by a lot of analysts [...]
I know that Ray is suffering from bad bone spurs in his ankle, Pierce is chasing around Igoudala with a strained MCL that must be more painful than I can imagine, and Bradley’s shoulder has been dislocated so much that its basically an exception now when it doesn’t pop out during a game. And all [...]
