Michelle Tafoya caught up with Celtics All-Star forward Kevin Garnett as confetti rained down on the parquet floor in Boston and tried to find out what emotions he was feeling at that moment. Well KG is a bit high strung when he is on the court and usually in postgame interviews he seems pretty cool [...]

The Celtics dominated the boards and defensively clamped down on the Lakers and specifically Kobe Bryant in the second half. Kobe has to play better. The Lakers as a whole played well until they started to miss a lot of open shots in the 4th quarter. The defense the Celtics are playing on Kobe is [...]

Tedy Bruschi gave the assist for those of you keeping track. Funny moment after PJ Brown delivered a hard foul on Jason Maxiell on a fast break. While the referees conferred, Sam Cassell challenged Rasheed Wallace to a game of one on one, and they actually faced off jokingly.

“Hey guys, were playing Boston at home, satureday, at 8 o’clock, please be on time”, should do it. I’m sorry but Avery Johnson????? I have never liked Flip and probably never will. The Pistons will only win another championship when they start playing solid defense. They dont shut teams down like they used to. This [...]

The key to the Celtics victory was the play of Raja Rondo in 40 minutes Rondo had 11 points but his defense on Chauncey Billups was the key. Billups last night only had 9 points and seemed out of place coming off the hamstring injury. Kevin Garnett had 26 and Pierce 22 which made the [...]

Let me answer that for you. No, there is not. In his four year career so far, he averages over 20 minutes per game but only contributes 6 points and 6 rebounds. He shoots 48% from the field and 57% from the free throw line. He commits about 3 fouls and 1 turnover per game. [...]

Last night the Celtics lost to the Nuggets in Denver by a score of 124-118. It was quite an exciting contest, replete with the return of Kevin Garnett, excruciatingly terrible officiating and little to no defense to speak of. Paul Pierce played yet another great game for the C’s, finishing with 24 points, 6 rebounds [...]

We also sing a mean rendition of “take me out to the ball game” and love watching some dunks and bloopers alongside Marv Albert. Did I mention, this is my favorite part? Korver, where you at? I’ve called you a better than advertised defender. I repeatedly talk about your ability to spread the floor, making [...]

But Chris Paul is Isiah Thomas (as a player not GM) for the 21st century. The Detroit Pistons have prevailed once again; J.J. Reddick must have been excited because he actually got off the bench in the blow out. Click the link to sign up for Celtics scores sent to your phone after each game. [...]

With Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, and Rajon Rondo, along with the best defense in the league this season, just chipping along isn’t going to get it done. And someone did. Scoring 20 points in the fourth quarter is the stuff of legend. To do it in the playoffs, on an 8th seed against a #1 [...]

After starting the game on a 16-3 run, the Celtics cooled down as Atlanta secured a 97-92 home win in Game 4 on Monday. Sure, the Hawks know that Kevin Garnett is a great player, and so is Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, but they can be beaten! The game was still close going into [...]

Everybody in the universe knows Zaza Pachulia stinks, and is awful. The point we don’t understand, is that he is projected floor short (w/ pace), and is a 43% short. The problem is this; One good post will come, action will happen. Then he will rise, forcing traders to cover. If Ruben can drop, Zaza [...]

At this point, I’m not sure that Dallas can win this series, even though I picked them. Maybe they can rediscover their mojo at home, but having Kidd on the floor is truly a liability on offense. Paul is essentially playing free safety and ignoring Kidd on the perimeter when he doesn’t have the ball. [...]

I don’t like much of the case against Kevin Garnett. Everyone knew what conference he played in and who his teammates were before the season started, but he was still a preseason MVP candidate. I dont get it. (AP) — The Boston Celtics weren’t concerned when Kevin Garnett missed his second str… Kevin Garnett missed [...]

And in the Eastern playoffs, theres the little matter of dealing with established point guards such as Chauncey Billups, Andre Miller, Mike Bibbyor the tandem of TJ Ford and Jose Calderon. The Celtics are obviously going to cede some offense production at the 1-spot where Rondo only averages 10.6 points per game. Rondo is a [...]
