Ray Allen It’s important to remember that Kevin Garnett never seriously considered going to Boston until Ray Allen joined the Celtics. On top of that KG’s lukewarm feelings for Wally Szczerbiak are so well known that I don’t...

Go to this old Bill Simmons article, scroll down to "Question: What was the most disturbing subplot of the season" and check out what he said about Dick Bavetta. It's intriguing. I'll leave it at that. Doc Rivers looked great when he played Glen...

I don't know what to say. Following this team has left me drained and completely spent. And yes I know how pathetic that sounds. Trust me. I know. I'm just looking for the Celtics to go 8 deep, share the ball on offense and bring their top...

With 3:41 to go in the first half the Celtics trailed the Cavaliers 43-29 and LeBron James was lighting up the TD Banknorth Garden. Boston worked the ball around until Rajon Rondo assisted on a Kevin Garnett jumper that cut the deficit to 12. ...

SB Nation has been busy of late, adding At the Hive (Hornets), SLC Dunk , (Jazz) and Ridiculous Upside (Draft, D League, etc.) to the basketball wing. Exciting stuff. Check them out.

Danny Ainge earned the NBAs Executive of the Year award. Congrats to him. In unrelated news Ainge also won nicest hair. Reports that he would now like to be called "Dan" are currently unsubstantiated. Regardless, well done.  via...

This is something I’ve thought about for a while now. Of course Bill Simmons’ recent article on the state of the Celtics, which I referenced in my last post, only hammered home that point with the following snippet: "Play hard, feed...

I do my recap without first mentioning Bill Simmons' recent article on Doc Rivers and the Boston Celtics. It's just epic. You really have to put some time in to carry a fake conversation that far. Particularly one with that many people involved....

A little late on getting this one up. That may be because I'm traumatized by the Celtics right now. And they're not exactly off to a great start. They need this one. Go C's.

For those of you who missed it the first time around the Pierce/LeBron's mom interaction just strikes me as bizarre. And yes I missed 3/4 of the game because of work, caught the 4th quarter and then went to bed at midnight because I had work the...

LaRocque from ROOMOFZEN recently posted a sign at work asking people to not ruin his Tivo attempts. This story has also run at FanHouse and Ball Don't Lie , possibly other places as well. Now I'm biased and thought it was harmless, and if anything...

SI.com is reporting that David Stern wants the NBA to look into the barrage of noise and smoke that have become common in arenas across the league. I'm confused by this story in the sense that I always think of David Stern as the NBA. If he wants...

I caught the 4th quarter live and still have to go back and watch the rest of the game. Give the Cavs credit. They hit baskets when they needed to, had stretches of tenacious defense and overall played great team basketball. That was a tough loss...

In his recap of Boston's Game 3 loss in Cleveland LaRocque from ROOMOFZEN linked to Bob Ryan's article on the disappearance of Eddie House with the arrival of Sam Cassell, particularly once the playoffs started. Well this led to an e-mail exchange...

Kevin Garnett earned a spot on the  NBA's All-Defensive First Team along with Kobe Bryant, Marcus Camby, Tim Duncan and Bruce Bowen. Congrats to KG.  via media3.washingtonpost.com And yes that's a picture of my favorite block of...
