Great video selection once again by the crew at redsarmy
See Ya, Sweets
Of course... as soon as I try to read into what the Celtics are thinking with Michael Sweetney... they cut him. See ya Sweets. We'll miss ya. Yo... ding dong, man... ding dong The good news is, the Celtics opened up two roster spots by cutting Sweetney.
I agree with KWAPT. He's had the entire offseason to keep "training" his knee. I understand we should keep him slow and steady but the season is basically in a month. If it gets to October and he's still not playing what should we assume? Perhaps re-signing big baby was the biggest move afterall.
Rondo's contract & KG's knee
Who needs coffee? I woke up this morning to look in the mirror and see a shocking amount of gray in my goatee... and then sat to an even more shocking development on my laptop: Celtics news! The Globe has an update on KG and his knee... “Kevin looks good, he’s in here working out every day,’...
No way Cousy goes 6-20 again
Legends Series: Bird Leads BigMck To Game 1 Win

Antoine didnt shoot a 3 the entire game? Hmmmmmm that cant be true

I love when Jester pulls out 40 year old references
Report: Pagliuca Running for Senate
Via Boston.com: Celtics co-owner Stephen Pagliuca has assembled a team of experts and is plotting to announce a run for the US Senate seat of the late Senator Edward M. Kennedy. For those who follow politics and the Celtics, this is quite the story.
And I want my plaque to say

The Red's Army Hall of Fame

I'm more upset that Johnny the Bone didn't make the HOF over the fact that I didn't make this years cut.
I feel a nice Jim Rice like style for me to make it in. Sometime around 2020 I hope.

I love the concept. But are you drafting the player based on their career stats, career stats on the celtics or something like their best seasons?
The most epic draft ever
The Boston Celtics, as an organization, are in a class by themselves (despite what Lakers fans think). As we look back at the history of this franchise... there's only one team that can compete with the Boston Celtics: The Boston Celtics. The only team that could compete with a group of th...
I would never want Tyronn Lue in Celtics green..... he's a girl.
Minny hoarding PG's, others fleeing the country
While it was nice to see Marquis Daniels in town yesterday, the C's still have a hole at back up point guard.... blah blah blah... While we drag this story line out for the last few weeks of this deadly-slow stretch of offseason, Minnesota is hoarding point guards. This time, the Wolves signed...
Who should start Telfair or Rondo??????????
2006-07 Celtics Were Bad, But Not The Worst
Kelly Dwyer of Ball Don't Lie ranks the 10 worst teams of the past ten years, and fortunately for us, the 2006-07 Celtics did not make the cut. For those don't remember, that Celtics team: finished 24-58 lost a franchise record 18 straight games had Gerald Green, Allen Ray, Michael Olowokandi p...
That was also the last year I was able to buy $30 tickets 2 hours before the game on ticketmaster.
And does any1 else remember this site from the 2007 season? Man times really have changed. Can't believe that was only two years ago.

The Phil Jackson argument is that he won his titles in an era where its harder to win multiple championships.... but Red won all of his with one team and absolutely dominated that era and revolutionized the game.
Sporting News Screws Red Auerbach

Its funny how Leon and TA are kinda in the same boat with the C's but at the same time its completely different. Guys who've spent theyre whole career with the company, battled knee injuries and have at times been embraced by the fans. Its just Leon is being let go at the peak of his popularity while every1 has basically had enough of TA.
The sad reality about the Leon Powe decision
I hate that Leon Powe was not offered a contract. Hate it. But I get it. Had the Celtics offered, and Powe accepted, the qualifying offer from the Celtics... they would have been on the hook for about $1.6 million dollars when you combine the contract and luxury tax. It's just too much to p...
Haven't posted in a while but im pumped to hear that news.
Gooooo Eddie
Eddie House is coming back!
Eddie House won't opt out of his deal. He has chosen to come back to Boston for the last year of his deal. "It was a tough decision," Bartelstein said. "We went back and forth the last couple of weeks. But, when it was all said and done, Eddie loved his time in Boston, he feels like he is on...
Hey rod.... more like ROWDY RODDY PIPER.
SEE YOU AT REDSARMY-MANIA BROTHERRRRR
Superchoke
Courtney Lee is off the hook. Dwight Howard is the new goat of this series. Yes, I know he sucks at free throws. But if Howard makes one of the two freebies with 11 seconds left and Orlando up 3, the Magic win this game. There's no second-guessing Stan Van Gundy for not-fouling the Lakers. ...

If we got the #2 pick and didn't take Rubio, I would be upset. He seems like the perfect player to add to this team.
Rumors: TA for Willie Green; Memphis #2 Pick
The Celtics have surfaced as potential suitors for Memphis' #2 pick in the draft: As the rumor mill churns, the Griz have been approached by several teams about acquiring the second overall pick. Boston, Houston and New York are said to be among the most recent suitors. Boston and Houston would ...

Call in show Wednesday
There are a lot of questions with the C's this offseason. So let's talk about them. Chuck and I are firing up the Chat-tronic 5000 and doing a call in show. This Wednesday, 9-9:30 pm. You can find all the details on our Blog Talk Radio show page.
Ya so if we kept the pick there was a good chance Sota would've picked Foye at #6 and then Brandon Roy wouldve been at #7 for us to take. Thats why I said potentially.
Looking back at it, the draft in 2006 wasnt suppose to be good and out of it came Rondo,Roy,Aldrige as well as guys like Ronnie Brewer Ty Thomas and Rudy Gay
Are the Celtics Really Shopping Rondo?
Via HoopsWorld: Off the record, we have several sources telling us that Ray Allen is, indeed, on the block. It's easy to make the leap, as the Celtics have managed to develop some nice young talent around their Big Three while also managing to win a championship. They might have even repeated...
The Ainge quote sounds like from this year but I can't even really relate that quote to these trade rumors. They took one quote from an entire article praising Rondo.

Exactly. But the real question is Ainge trying to go for a few solid players (i.e Amare and Barbosa) or attract a young superstar. Either way, I don't see any of those guys you wrote being traded.

I understand the Ray Allen thing but how would added Rondo go into this equation whatsoever. If were trading someone like Rondo who is the FUTURE of this team, then Ainge has lost it. Personally, I feel Rondo is one of the guys in this league you just can't trade. Unlike someone like Ray Allen, you don't know how Rondo could improve in the next couple years. Allens not bringing anything new to the table, but Rondo has a chance to be the best pure point guard in the East for the next decade. If we offer Allen and Rondo in a deal, it has to be one of the best players in the league.
I know Ainge brought us a title and brought KG and Ray Ray to boston, but besides that year he has made too many mistakes during his tenure. I thought our 1st round pick (potentially Brandon Roy) for Telfair was bad, but if a deal is made involving both these guys, I'll be very upset.
Nevermind the fact that we'll be a Top 3 team in the league again next season.

Good point. Nevermind the fact he had to deal with the Wizards who still believe the Arenas-Jamison-Butler trio are enough to "make some noise" in the East. It's also hard to make any sort of roster change when you're giving 150 million to Arenas who gets hurt every season. It cripples the team from making any real moves.
Oh those meddling Maloofs
We're still waiting for word on what is gonna happen with Tom Thibodeau. But we are hearing that the process is getting bogged down by the Maloof brothers... who apparently are sticking their noses in where they said they wouldn't. Whoever gets the Kings coaching job will be the second choice. ...
You can tell Reggie is loving every moment of this.
Charles Barkley has no regard for FCC rules
This video has been out there, so some of you might have seen it. But I figured it'd be worth posting on the front page anyway. First, he calls Kenny Smith "numbnuts"... then he calls his producer a "pussy"... all on live TV. The best part about this video is that I can actually say I have...
It's awesome to hate the Lakers because
a)The history of these teams
b)They're good
c)THE FREAKIN HISTORY
Honestly no one cares whether or not you care about this rivalry, but don't say that we shouldnt care about the biggest rivalry in our historys franchise.
I Love Dahntay Jones!!
I never condone dirty play....unless it's directed at Kobe Bryant. Nuggets guard Dahntay Jones continues to take his cheap shots. Last night during the Nuggets Game 4 victory, he blatantly tripped Bryant as Kobe cut into the lane. Kobe went sliding into the lane and, here come the best part, ...
