Ray Allen and the path of least resistance
Yesterday I caught some excerpts from Ray Allen’s introductory press conference down in Miami, which somehow went on without the use of pyrotechnics, dry ice, or predictions about winning 8…
Regarding Ray: Were Ainge and Riley playing tug-of-war or keep away?
While driving back from the Cape today I listened to WEEI’s Butch Stearns spend more than an hour chatting with callers about Ray Allen’s departure from the Celtics. What did…
Ray Allen to Heat Reaction
From a basketball perspective, I honestly don’t think it’s that big a deal. The Celtics were 17-5 without him in the lineup last year, and at this point in Ray’s…
Thoughts on the Celtics’ Future
It sucks that the Celtics lost another big series when up 3-2, and it sucks that they did so in the same way they did last time (games 6 and…
Thank you, Celtics.
There’s a good chance we’ll never see all four of these guys in green again. If that was the end, it’s been a great ride. The first game I…
It’s funny how the Heat think acting like princesses is the right move
There are two plays from Game 3 the other night that jump out at me. The first occurred with 4:50 to go in the 4th quarter. Ray Allen fouled Lebron…
Rajon Rondo can do anything* (when necessary)
With ten minutes left in the game on Saturday night, the Celtics we’re clinging to a 3 point lead. Ray Allen was dribbling the ball in the corner, directly in…
Old Celtics still bring it when they need to
It’s time for everybody to stop making “KG turned back the clock last night” references over and over again. And we don’t need to hear anymore of those “Garnett gave…
Maybe the C’s should tank Game 1 tonight
With 8:41 to go in the 4th quarter Thursday night Kevin Garnett knocked down a turnaround jumper with a hand in his face for about the millionth time in the…
Don’t blame the PG
When Ray Allen drained a 3 with 2:41 to go last night, tying the game at 83-83 and bringing the Celtics back from a big second half deficit for the second…
Avery Bradley a “game time decision” for Game 4
The official word from the Celtics this afternoon is that Avery Bradley will be a “game time decision” tonight. According to Celtics coach Doc Rivers, Bradley has been dealing with a recurring…
Is Rondo Due To Break Out Tonight?
A re-occurring theme in Rajon Rondo’s career is this: whenever the Celtic’s point guard is faced with adversity, he plays his best basketball. It seems like every time we hear…
Why do we need a banner to be happy?
It looks like Pierce and KG aren’t going to play tonight. Not to mention that Rondo, Ray, and Pietrus already didn’t make the trip to Atlanta. The Celtics have basically…
Can the C’s hang on to first place?
Boston’s win in Charlotte last night moved them into a first place tie with Philly in the Atlantic Division, which could well mean the difference between opening up the playoffs…
Mickael Pietrus is Going to be OK
If you were watching this on TV last night it was scary, really scary. But all reports today are indicating that it’s not too serious and he should play again…
