This season has had its share of tough losses. The sting of defeat does not get less painful over time. The Celtics have had a rough patch since coming back from the All-Star “break” and it seems like this team is inching closer to the play-in tournament. Boston is not in great shape for the […]

Just when I thought I could sit and relax, I get a report saying that Celtics big man Tristan Thompson could be on the move before the deadline. Thompson signed with Boston this past off-season on a two-year deal worth $19million with an option for 2021-22. To me this feels more like Danny is setting […]

Currently, they sit two games above .500; floundering with many other inconsistent Eastern Conference teams. It is very clear that the Celtics are in desperate need of a roster shake-up; and more consistent ball […]

Kemba Walker’s Roller Coaster Start of a Season The Celtic’s Kemba Walker had a slower start to the season than most. He was late to the party because of his knee issues and had a tough time getting himself back to game speed. Of course, that’s when the calls to trade him were becoming audible […]

Kristaps Porzingis came into the league as the unicorn that would cure the Knicks and bring New York back to the bright lights of primetime. Then reality hit. Kristaps tore his ACL in 2018 and the Knicks did a good job of getting rid of him for nothing. All of the players they got in […]

This season is one that is not like any other we’ve had in the past. It will also probably be unlike any season we have in the future. Teams are losing players for days or weeks on end because of the new COVID-19 protocols. Specifically, the Celtics lost Jayson Tatum for a few games. The […]

Alright, alright I know the Celtics aren’t the favorites to win it all. As painful as that is to admit, it’s just the truth. Keeping in mind that the Celtics are still a very good basketball team, there are some areas where Boston still needs to improve. Danny Ainge has the league’s largest trade exception […]

Look – I know Boston being the best sports city has got you feeling some type of way, but that’s just how it is. I know some of our stars have left and found greener pastures and that’s good for them; but, the bottom line is that the Celtics will be holding a share in […]

With a month of the season in the books, and given all of the obstacles the Celtics have had to face due to the league’s health and safety protocols in response to COVID, the Celtics find themselves in a good spot. They sit at 8-5 which puts them in at 2nd in the eastern conference […]

Bradley Beal was a man possessed on Wednesday night. The Washington Wizards guard matched a franchise single-game scoring record, tying Gilbert Arenas’ 60 point outburst against Los Angeles during the 2006-07 season. For Arenas, it took a 16 point onslaught in overtime to set the record. He won the game against a peak-Kobe Bryant no […]
