NBA Championship: Celtics-Lakers Preview?A Lot Can Happen in a Year
2008-06-05 05:29:00 I remember vividly being in a bar in New Jersey, just over a year ago. The Red Sox were playing the Yankees, I was in an argument with one of the many Yankee fans at the bar over which team had a better pitching staff, and one of the TVs on the far side of the bar had the NBA draft coverage. I tried not to get my hopes up, but the Celtics had gone through such a bad season. Paul Pierce was hurt, the team suffered through a ridiculous eighteen game losing streak, and the NBA?s stupid policy of not giving the number one pick in the draft to the regular season?s worst team had me extremely worried. I had visions of the number one pick. I had visions of the next Tim Duncan. This time, it was our year. This time, the ping-pong balls would fall the right way. If the NBA was willing to freeze an envelope to ensure the Knicks would get a chance to draft Patrick Ewing, surly they?d do something to ensure one of their marquee franchises got the first or second pick in a top-heavy draft. E...
2008 NBA Finals Preview
2008-06-03 07:35:00 On Thursday night the Lakers and Celtics will face off in a historical rematch of the NBA's two most storied franchises in the 2008 NBA finals.Both teams entered the playoffs as the number one seed in their conference. The Lakers came out of the Western Conference by leaning on Kobe Bryant?s MVP skills and Paul Gasol down low. The Celtics are led by the trio of Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen.Here comes some position breakdowns and analysis.Homecourt AdvantageBoth teams are good at home but I can't go against the Garden. Their rowdy fans will have the team fired up and ready to win.Advantage: CelticsPoint GuardRajon Rondo vs. Derek FisherObviously Derek Fisher has the clear advantage when it comes to experience, he has won 3 NBA Championships and played in 148 career playoff games and Rajon Rondo has won 0 championships and played in only 20 career playoff games. This is an interesting match up because neither player is one of the best players on their respective teams bu...

Celtics Win Eastern Conference: Bring On The Lakers!
2008-06-02 02:02:00 Before I start, I want to thank the Papa Joe radio show (KLAV, 1230 out of Las Vegas) for having me on today to discuss the ?honorable? Senator from the great state of Comcast, Arlen Specter. It was fun, my first time on a radio show as a guest. Nerve racking, but fun. They should have a link to the show on their site tomorrow. If you get a chance to listen, let me know how I did. 8:39 PM: Rip Hamilton is playing, which is big for Detroit. We?ll see how he does. Hey, the Pistons won the tip for the first time this series. They must be serious. 8:42 PM: Ray Allen missed a three, but at least he shot the ball. First foul of the game?on Rondo. Billups missed?that?s odd. By the way, I?m halfway through my first Sam Adams Boston Ale, and Ray Allen just drained a three!! Good signs everywhere early! 8:44 PM: By the way, I still haven?t accepted Ray Allen back into the Big Three, nor have I fixed my keyboard yet. Two minutes and twenty four seconds of basketball, four calle...
Celtics-Pistons: Celtics Hold On (Barely), Take 3-2 Lead in Series
2008-06-02 02:01:00 I wasn?t going to do a "running diary"-type of deal for tonight?s game. It just kind of happened, starting with the beginning of the second quarter. I love reading, but hate writing these things. The inevitable Bill Simmons-comparisons and the even more inevitable Bill Simmons-wannabe comments are, most of the time, too annoying to deal with. But the spacebar on my keyboard is broken (at this point, I?ve ripped off the spacebar and I?m jamming my finger into a small hole and pushing a little rubber thing to make spaces), and since it would have taken me five hours to write this anyway, I?m going with it. We pick things up four minutes into the second quarter? 9:21 PM EST: I want this on the record: This is the worst officiating I?ve ever seen. Ever. 1) Missed goal-tend to end the first quarter. 2) Clear path foul that wasn?t a clear path. 3) Flagrant foul that wasn?t flagrant. 4) Terrible call on a clean P.J. Brown block. 5) Three second violation on P.J. Brown that...
Celtics-Pistons: Celtics Steal Game Three In Detroit, Take 2-1 Lead in Seri
2008-05-25 06:00:00 Paul Pierce summed it up correctly. Forget about the monkey, they left that in Cleveland. The Gorilla is off the Celtics? back. After splitting at home for the first time in the playoffs, the Celtics found themselves in the unfamiliar position of having to win a game on the road. It?d been over five weeks since the best road team in the NBA?s regular season won a game away from the fake Garden. Some believed they?d never win a game on the road. I heard many, many Celtic fans scream ?this one?s over in six? as they nearly killed themselves leaping off the bandwagon Thursday night. A team that plays defense as well as the Celtics is built to play and win road games in the playoffs. It was unbelievable that they hadn?t stolen a game, but on the other hand, as they were always quick to point out, they didn?t need to. Doc Rivers, for all the things he does that I don?t like, is pretty good at keeping his team even. You wouldn?t know by watching this Celtics team that they hadn?t won...
Celtics-Cavaliers: Garnett, Celtics Can't Overcome LeBron and Officiating
2008-05-17 05:17:00 That was, by far, the worst, most embarrassing performance by an officiating crew in the history of the NBA. The only thing that comes even close is when they decided to give Dwayne Wade a few games in the NBA finals a few years ago. LeBron James had more free throw attempts than the entire Celtic team. Which would have been OK, if the Celtics weren?t taking the ball to the hoop. But they WERE. Paul Pierce couldn?t buy a call. Taking the ball to the hoop and drawing contact did nothing to help him. I understand that Glen Davis is a rookie, but he was fouled 7 times and didn?t make it to the line once. He was MUGGED under the hoop. Yet no call. Kendrick Perkins was thrown off the spot when attempting a defensive rebound, no call. Yet he was constantly called on the other end for minimal contact. I?m not rational right now. I was ready to blast the Celtics for losing on the road again, or praise them for finally getting over the road hump. But what I witnessed was not a basketb...

Celtics-Hawks: Celtics Dominate Hawks, Take 2-0 Series Lead
2008-04-24 05:49:00 If you?re going to call out the opposing team?s fans, the least you could do is not get repeatedly schooled by a second year point guard.If you?re going to claim that Kendrick Perkins has no right to question your game one performance, the least you could do is not follow it up with the same type of performance in game two.Mike Bibby succeeded in doing one thing?he gave the Boston crowd something to boo. God knows the Celtics haven?t given them reason to this season.Rajon Rondo continued his impressive playoff debut, filling up the stat sheet with twelve points, six rebounds, eight assists, and four steals. Kevin Garnett took control of Wednesday night's game early and never let go, finishing with his fifteenth straight playoff double-double (nineteen points and ten rebounds). Atlanta made an effort to come out more aggressive in game two, and they were successful in adding some physicality that was missing in game one. For the first five minutes, it seemed to be working.Paul Pi...

Defensive Player of the Year: Kevin Garnett
2008-04-22 23:26:00 This was another award this season that was no contest as the Boston Celtics Kevin Garnett absolutely transformed his Celtics into quite possibly the best defensive team in the NBA not to mention lead his team to the #1 seed in the Eastern Conference and the best record in the NBA this season at 66-16 (only 6 games off matching the best record all-time 72-10 by Michael Jordan's 95-96 Chicago Bulls).KG blew away the competition for the Defensive Player of the Year award getting 90 of the 124 votes for first place in the race followed by last year's Defensive Player of the year in the Denver Nugget's Marcus Camby with 12 and Houston Rockets defensive specialist Shane Battier with 11 votes.During the regular season, KG was in the running for the MVP award, but a late season injury and the impressive play of both the New Orleans Hornets Chris Paul and the Los Angeles Lakers Kobe Bryant overshadowed the Big Ticket's play in Boston.Although KG most likely will not win the MVP this sea...

Boston Celtics Complete Greatest Single-Season Turnaround in NBA History
2008-04-06 20:19:00 With Saturday?s win over the Washington Generals?err?the Charlotte Bobcats, the Celtics have had the greatest turn around in NBA history. This really is something for my generation of Celtics fans. I was too young to really appreciate Larry Bird and the original big three. For the most part, the Celtics have been a laughing stock almost my entire sports-life. While teams like Detroit and Chicago went through good-bad-good cycles, the Celtics remained consistently bad (save for a few REALLY down seasons in the Eastern Conference). It?s amazing how all of the Boston Sports teams that don?t play on ice have followed the same path. 1) Horrible ownership leads to years of inept front office decisions and horrible teams. 2) Ownership finally decides to sell the team. 3) New ownership takes over and completely turns things around. In the Patriots and Red Sox cases, the ownership change eventually lead to multiple championships. While the new Celtics? ownership haven?t br...
The Truth: Paul Pierce is Real NBA MVP
2008-03-21 05:00:00 The race for NBA MVP is as wide open as the Western Conference right now. From what I've been hearing, the choices seem to have been narrowed down to Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul, and LeBron James. All of them are fantastic choices. There are clear, legitimate arguments for each of them. I'm a huge NBA fan. I'm an admirer of guys who play a complete game. All of the guys who have been mentioned in the MVP race fall into that category. You have Kobe Bryant, who is an underrated one-on-one defender and an the most dominating offensive force in the NBA. The easy choice for MVP this season, he's led the surprising Lakers up to or near the top of the Western Conference (depending on what happens between now and when this is published on Thursday). Chris Paul is playing out of his mind. He makes his teammates better, can score at will, and might be playing at a higher level than anyone else in the Western Conference. An insane season for a guy who stands at only six-feet tall. LeBr...

Struggling Boston Celtics Looking for Answers Out West
2008-02-26 05:15:00 If you read my Carolina Panther?s mock draft article, you know that I?ve been suffering from some kind of indescribable sickness. Lately, I?ve been wondering if whatever I have has infected the Boston Celtics. Since the All-Star break, the Boston Celtics have been playing lackluster basketball. I?m not all that concerned with the fact that they?re losing. They?re playing some of the best teams in the NBA, especially from an offensive perspective. No team goes through an entire season without experiencing some type of losing streak. I am, however, concerned with how they?re losing. When the Celtics were at their best this season, they seemed to feed off of Kevin Garnett?s energy. When Garnett was injured, the young guys stepped in and supplied the intensity. Guys like Glen Davis and Leon Powe played their hearts out, leading the Celtics to a 7-2 record while Garnett was out. Then Garnett returned. Since his return, they?re 0-3, turning the ball over at an alarming rate, g...

Celtics Crush The Heat
2008-01-30 04:38:00 The Boston Celtics, minus Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen, managed to win in convincing fashion against the Miami Heat. "Leon Powe scored a career-high 25 points with 11 rebounds, Rajon Rondo tied a career-high with 23 points, and Tony Allen scored 20 points with six assists to lead the NBA-best Celtics to an overwhelming 117-87 victory Tuesday night over the Heat -- who followed the win that snapped their 15-game losing streak with an absolute clunker."http://sports.espn.go.-com/nba/recap?gameId=280129014I- love it. I'm a big Celtics fan and I'm so giddy about their chances at a title. Tonight's game shows that it's not all about the big 3. Boston has other players that can step up an contribute. That's key when the playoffs start because Boston can't just be a 3 man team if they're to win a championship. The role players have to step up as well and tonight they showed that they were up to the task. Yes, Miami isn't exactly a powerhouse this year but it was a road game and to see...

Beat LA (like a drum)
2007-12-31 09:30:00 The Celtics just completed a 4-0 west coast trip with a shellacking of the LA Lakers.Couple of quick observations:Kobe was awful. Too many bad shots. Lamar Odom is a thug. Also, he can?t cover KG.Andrew Bynum is better than I remember him. He?s also bigger. Looks like they got him on the Yankee program, if you know what I mean.Paul Pierce is playing out of his mind. Having KG and Ray Allen to share the offensive load has apparently freed up enough energy for him to be dominant on both ends of the floor. I can?t remember the last time I saw a player get 3 steals on consecutive possessions. Apparently, No Blood, No Foul doesn?t apply in LA. Apparently, when you get shoulder-checked into the bench, it?s a foul if you land on your own ass. That?s the only explanation I can come up with on why Ray Allen was called for a foul on that Odom play.When Ray Allen is on, his shot falls from anywhere and everywhere.Since the Detroit loss, the Celtics have been playing their best ball of the seas...
Blogging Celtics - Enjoying the Kevin Garnett Era
2007-12-19 06:03:00 It?s hard being the typical negative sports writer in Boston these days. The Red Sox are World Series champions. The Patriots are only the second team in NFL history to start a season 14-0. The Bruins, I?ve been told, are playing pretty well. The Revolution are the MLS?s version of the Buffalo Bills. Boston College was ranked as high as 2 this season in the BCS. The Celtics are 20-2.That?s right, the Celtics are 20-2.Not since Tommy Heinsohn was a player has a Celtics team started 20-2. Of course, when Tommy Heinsohn was a player that kind of start was expected. Back then, it didn?t just seem like the Celtics won championships every season, they DID win championships every season.Ever since Len Bias decided Cocaine was more important than playing professional basketball the Celtics have been in a seemingly unending downward spiral. In no particular order, the following things have happened to the Celtics since 1986.1) Larry Bird?s bad back ? probably cut his career short by 5 years....

Boston Celtics, Eastern Conference Champs in 2008 [David Stefanini]
2007-07-31 21:06:00 Holy S*@%! Kevin Garnett is a Boston Celtic. Talk about a megadeal! The Boston Celtics now have 3 of the best players in the NBA; Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, and Kevin Garnett.Name a team in the East that can beat the Boston Celtics in a 7 game series, no-one. Right now the Miami Heat, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Detroit Pistons are the three teams you could say can compete with the Celtics. But here is why they wouldn't win, the Heat are to old, the Cavs have only LeBron James and the Pistons couldn't beat the Cavs last year.The city of Boston must be the happiest place to live right now, sports wise. They have the best team in baseball, a Super Bowl contender every year, and one of the best teams in the NBA. Since I live in New York all of my friends reading this won't let me hear the end of that comment, but it is true.Kevin Garnett is a perfect player, and I have him ranked as the second best player in the entire league behind Kobe.

The Celtics will send Al Jefferson, Gerald Green, Theo Ratliff, Ryan Gomes, Sebastian Telfair, and two first-round picks to the Timberwolves for Garnett, terms both sides have agreed to in principle.The news is all over the Globe and the Metro in case you haven't heard about it yet. All throughout June, we read articles like the one (here) on ESPN saying Garnett would never come to Boston. But the tables have turned.

Complete Coverage: NBA Draft [David Stefanini]
2007-06-26 14:50:00 With a lot of things going around in the NBA today I think it is time to do a full rundown of exactly what is going on.First the big news of the day is a potential 4-team trade involving the Celtics, Pacers, T'Wolves, and Lakers. The trade would bring Kevin Garnett to the Lakers to pair with Kobe Bryant. The Celtics would get Jermaine O'Neal, the Pacers would get Andrew Bynum and Lamar Odom, and the lonely T'Wolves would get draft picks.Why is this trade likely to happen? The Lakers desperately want to please Kobe. Getting Garnett would make Kobe very happy and stop all the trade talks surrounding him. The Celtics would get an All-Star center to go along with Paul Pierce making them a force in the East. The Pacers would get 2 very good players; one of them being a potential Super-Star. The T'Wolves will finally have let Garnett go after screwing the world and Garnett out of 10 years.Why is the trade not going to happen? Kevin Garnett wants to go to Phoenix. The Lakers are a good...

Kevin Garnett or Jermaine O'Neal?
2007-05-09 09:23:00 This off season will be almost as difficult for Mitch Kupchak as back when he traded Shaq to the Miami Heat for Lamar Odom, Caron Butler and Brian Grant. It has been a rough road since Shaq left, nothing but bad pick up after bad pick up(Aaron Mckie, Vladimir Radmanovic, Chris Mihm, Chucky Atkins, Smush Parker, Brian Grant), the only real promise in anything Kupchak has done as a GM was getting Caron Butler and Lamar Odom. Even that got screwed up, Caron Butler is now a all-star starter on a good Washington Wizards team along side Gilbert Arenas and Lamar Odom is probably on his way out after his performance in the playoffs and Kobe's demand for change. Admittedly, Kupchak has had some pretty big shoes to fill by replacing one of the greatest general managers of all time in Jerry West, but come on man, start making some moves to improve the team, not get knocked out the first round of the playoffs, again and piss off your superstar by not surrounding him with a good supporting cast...

I Feel Your Pain Kevin Garnett
2007-02-18 10:25:02 I have always had a love/hate relationship with Kevin Garnett. One game I'm thinking he's pure MVP, the next I'm thinking trade the bum. Well Kevin, I want to apologize. I want to say sorry for all my trade you away and build again blog posts. I'm now fully on your side...and I feel your pain. Looking back at Garnett's career to this point, you realize his plight has more to do with the turmoil surrounding him and less about his consistent 20pts - 10rbs - 5ast.I took this clip off Yahoo yesterday and it got me thinking:Garnett was asked by All-Star weekend reporters: So when are you going to follow the lead of so many of your peers and ask out of a losing cause with the Timberwolves? "I've never been good at following," Garnett said. "When it's time to make a decision on what's best for me, I'll make a decision on Kevin Garnett."
