Always impressed by your work, guys. Excellent. *thumbs up*
Video shows Shaq was exaggerating a bit in his book
Shaquille O'Neal's new book, "Shaq Uncut," co-written with Jackie MacMullan, hasn't even been released yet, but some juicy tidbits have. Shaq has re-ignited the Kobe feud and spilled some critical beans on the relationship between LeBron James and his former Cleveland Cavalier coach Mike Brown...
It started with our Celtics, but now I'm a fully fledged Boston sports fan that just happens to be stuck on the wrong side of the planet (Australia). I am so ridiculously happy for you guys, for the Bruins and for the city of Boston. I had a half day at work yesterday and RACED home in time to catch the last ten minutes of the game (DVR was already set and recording). My other half and I cheered and screamed and cried the entire time. Thank you Bruins and thank you Boston - TitleTown reigns SUPREME!!!
Congratulations to the Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins
Photo by Elsa/Getty Images We know you're not all Boston sports fans... and probably fewer of you are hockey fans. But we here behind the scenes at Red's Army are Boston through-and-through. And we're all partying tonight because the Boston Bruins have hoisted Lord Stanley's cup. We congrat...
Rondo just about blows my mind every single time I watch him play. If it isn't the ridiculous passes and ball-handling, it's the way he sacrifices his body and makes my heart jump into my throat. he scares the crap out of me most of the time. I rest of the time, I just watch in amazement. Incredible kid.
Rondo: "just pop it back in"
Photo by Elsa/Getty Images Little things are starting to trickle out about the team now that the season is over. One of them is a little more detail about Rondo in the trainer's room after dislocating his elbow in Game 3. Rondo’s dislocated left elbow was added to the medical pantheon this m...
Awww, Pop's just mad. Poor baby.
Grumpy Gregg Popovich not impressed with Rondo's toughness
Via the Boston Globe/San Antonio Express: “It’s really been hard to watch the playoffs and have them make Rondo out like Willis Reed,” Popovich said Thursday, in wide-ranging interview with the Express-News. “It’s like, Manu couldn’t even play the first game (against Memphis), and we probably sh...
Thanks again, KWAPT. As someone far, far away, having you at the Garden and seeing your updates, pictures and reports makes me feel closer to the action. I can't thank you enough for that. Here's to next season and the one after that and the one after that. Cheers, my friend.
Pain.
Achilles pain, elbow pain, back pain, calf pain, ankle pain. Pain. It's a word Celtics fans have grown accustomed to all season. I really did not feel too nervous going into last night's game. I don't know what it was. Confidence? Cockiness? Reserve? I just felt ready to deal with whatever wa...
Just want to thank you guys for the great coverage this season. You help a long-distance fan like me keep in the loop.
Recap: Excruciating loss caps a disappointing season
When did the Celtics become a team that couldn't finish? Did it start in Game 7 of last year's Finals? Whenever it started, it reached the apex in this series. The Celtics led this one 87-81 with 4:15 remaining. The Heat closed the game on a 16-0 run. In an elimination game, the Celtics were h...
Not fazed or worried in the slightest. Sure, I would've preferred if we'd played better and gotten the W. But a loss fires up this team like nothing else. PP is going to be ON FIRE in Game 2, I just know it. Bring on Game 2. :)
Recap: James freakin Jones destroys the Celtics
Dwyane Wade (38 points, 14-21 FG) played a superb basketball game, but James Jones was the difference in the Heat's 99-90 victory in Game 1. The sharp-shooting bench player nailed 5 threes and scored 23 of his 25 points in the 1st half. He was the reason Miami took a 15 lead into halftime. Jon...
Awesome! Now all we need is Ray=Buttah shirts. :)
Happy birthday, KWAPT!
Our Birthday present to KWAPT: His own shirt
If you follow KWAPT on Twitter, you know that when the C's need to get a stop... he's always there with a cry of "STOPZZZ!!" It's become a trademark of sorts for him. Click on the picture if you want that shirt... or go to our store. The STOPZZZ shirts are in this section... or go to the st...
Agreed, on all counts.
Recap: Heat destroy Celtics (and my optimism)
(Photo by Mike Ehrmann/Getty Images) I'd been clinging to the 'flip the switch' and 'get the new guys acclimated' theories for the past six weeks... but after watching today's pile of crap... I'm starting to have my doubts about this team. In what many of us believed was a must-win game, the C...
Okay, so it's not turbulence. But are most people essentially saying that Perk was the heart of our team? That without Perk we're nothing? I don't believe that. Okay, yes, things are not currently going as well as we would like but I don't think it's the end of the line. I don't think we've seen this team gel properly yet so I'm not ready to sound the death knell.

We had the same slump last year, just at a different time. I'm nowhere near the panic button yet. I'm hoping to see the team I love when the playoffs start.

Turbulence. That's the perfect way to describe what's going on. Turbulence with a side of apathy. I'm hoping both disappear in the playoffs.

Trade Rondo? Really, people? I don't know, maybe I'm just an optimist or maybe I just have too much blind faith. Trading Rondo is NOT the answer to our problems. Rondo is our future. Or should we just blow this entire team up now and start from scratch all over again? I don't know, I'm not ready to give up just yet.

"So I hate that Perk is gone, but it's not as bad as it seems. And we're still not done. So let's see what else Trader Danny's got up his sleeve."
I wholeheartedly agree. I don't even know how to feel right now.
Taking a deep breath, and looking at the C's moves realistically
Ok, we're all freaking out because Kendrick Perkins is no longer a Celtic. It's a jarring move that is hard to explain. Perkins has been a defensive monster and is a huge reason why the Celtics have been able to get past Orlando in the East. But at a time like this, its easy to forget a lot...
