The Good – Both Pierce and Green had monster games for the Celtics, as Paul Pierce had a triple-double, and Green had some key defensive stops down the stretch that helped the Celtics stay in the game. Pierce was able to silence the doubters, who have been all over him in the past few weeks, [...]
The Good – The Celtics, without Bradley for the night, got a great game from Rondo. He had a season high 30 points, and could have had more if he didn’t foul out in overtime. His final line was 12-21, in a game which helped silent his critics, at least for the night, who have [...]
The Good – Rondo had his third triple-double of the season and the 26th of his young career, as he led the Celtics to their 6th win in a row. Rondo was able to have a bit of a comeback game after playing mediocre (for Rondo) the last few games. Also of note is the [...]
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 – Paul Pierce was vintage, as he scored 40 points with 17 coming in the 3rd quarter. In a night when the Celtics were up and down, the captain showed up to play and win. The last player to score 40 or more after the age of 35 for the Celtics was [...]
The Good – Rajon Rondo had a good game with 26 points on 9-18 shooting, as he transitioned over to more of a scoring point-guard. Although he had a good shooting night, he only had 8 assists, as the rest of the team shot only 41% against the Bulls. It’s games like this that show [...]
The Good – Rajon got his first triple-double of the season, and he only needed the first 3 quarters of the game to do it. But his great performance didn’t translate as well into overtime, where he missed a last second wide open shot that would have given the Celtics the win. His knees seemed [...]
The Good – The Celtics got a much needed win against a top tier team when they beat the Thunder by 8. Paul Pierce had a huge game, going for 27 points on 8-16 shooting. He also was clutch from down-town shooting 4-6 behind the arc. He did all this while playing against MVP favorite [...]
The Good – Rondo was on his game, scoring 22 points and extending his assist streak with 15. He seemed to be pressing in the fourth though, as he was the only one who seemed active on offense.
The Bad – The Celtics had stretches in the 4th where they showed no defensive intensity. The [...]
The Good – Rondo looked unstoppable in the first half as he helped the Celtics take a 12 point lead at the half. He extended his double digit assist streak to 31 games. The longest such streak since Stockton did it in the 80′s, (of course Stockton had the advantage of playing against dudes who [...]
