I really hope that wasn't the last game at the Garden for the Boston Three Party. Can't go out that way. Gotta win game 7.
Recap: The Celtics blow golden opportunity
Why am I surprised? This is the 2012 Celtics. They followed up a gritty, gutty win in Miami with a pathetic peformance at home with a Finals berth on the line. LeBron James was phenomenal: 45 points, 19-26 FG and 15 rebounds. Paul Pierce was phenomenally awful: 9 points on 4-18 FG. James is goi...
Should have been a 4 point play
Video: Pierce's dagger 3 in super slow-mo
As always with these, there are fun things to look for that aren't always visible in normal speed or even some of the replays. My favorite? It comes at the :26-28 stretch. It's a guy in the stands between Pierce's shoulder and LeBron's shoulder. After the shot goes in. It's a doubl...
And THE TRUTH shall set you free!!!!!!
Celtics win the craziest F'ing playoff game I've ever seen, 1 win from returning to Finals
Do you know what just happened? Does anyone? I'll repeat what I said on Twitter earlier during the game. I've never seen a team so close in a basketball game but teeter so close to total collapse like the Celtics did all night. They had a million chances to fold, and it looked like they'd t...
Almost had a heart attack when Wade put up that 3. Just finished watching SportsCenter and almost fainted watching the highlights, like oh crap, maybe this time he makes it. Can easily be 3-1 C's right now. Time to take our talents to South Beach for game 5. Cannot wait.
Recap: The grittiest and ballsiest win yet
Three reasons the Celtics won this game: Grit and balls. Balls and grit. Grit and balls. What did I tell you all before the game via Twitter? Joey Crawford is the only ref with the balls to take on LeBron Wade and Dwyane Wade. And Joey delivered with the 6th whistle on James. Now excuse me whi...
I bought Tickets to home game 1 which I thought/hoped would be game 1 but now that it will be game 3 I cannot go because I will be away that weekend. If anyone is interested in buying my tickets please let me know. 2 Tickets for section 10 floor corner row A (actual 1st row on the floor near Flo Allen). $750 for the pair. Let me know.

Does anyone know where I can get live feeds of Celtics games? I live in NY and can only watch when they're on ESPN/TNT/ABC and when they play the Knicks/Nets. I downloaded the WEEI app for my iphone to at least listen to the games but they are not allowed to stream C's games. If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it. Please don't tell me NBA League Pass, there's only 9 games left. Thanks!

"I'll be totally good for the rest of the year"
LOL it's one more day.
Paul Pierce may play tonight
Twitter / @sheridanhoops: Word from the #Celtics thi ... via kwout OH PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE... Dear God... I promise I'll be totally good for the rest of the year if you make Pierce healthy enough to play tonight. Maybe. Still, though. The Pierce thing would totally be gr...
Perhaps is PP trained as hard as Ray Allen does in the off-season this heel would be a non-issue?
Your Morning Dump... Where Pierce could miss the opener
Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here... highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. Is he worried about the Knicks game for Pierce? “I’m concerned now,” Rivers said. “For after that, I’m not that concerned, b...
Who are the 9 people who actually voted for the ZigTechs?
Match-up 2: "Celtics Sneaker Madness"
I'd like to start-off by saying thank you for all the voting on match-up #1. We've had a great response to Sneaker Madness so far, and I hope you'll all continue participating. I'm sure it's no surprise to everyone that Ray Allen's Air Jordan XIII won in a landslide over Big Baby's Air Max Fly...
It's too bad Van Gundy is not the one leaving our TV.
Your Morning Dump... Where Mark Jackson's leaving your TV
Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here... highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump Mark Jackson has agreed to a three-year, $6 million contract to coach the Golden State Warriors. Jackson, who has no coachin...
Elderly abuse? Then why show Rondo and Baby? Those guys are like 25. They could have showed some of those blocks on Ray at the rim instead. Although they took that image of Rondo on his head and did some pretty clever photoshop jobs with it. However, watch that play over...How on earth does LeBron pick up the ball, do a 360 degree spin, and put it back down directly in front of him and that NOT be a carry? Should have been a charge or carry at least.
Is this REALLY how you want to go out, Celtics?
Hey, Celtics. Yeah... you. The players. I know at least one of you in that locker room reads blogs. Well... whichever one you are... pass this around. Let everyone see it. Paul... Ray.... KG.... Take a good look at this. And just know that as a fan.. I've got no response to it...
I work in a pizza shop in New York, and at 9:00 my boss told me I could go home early. He was tired of looking at me in all green. I was at game 1 and as good as that was to be there, it almost felt that good at work today after hearing shit from everyone. The D'Antonio family orders from our shop. Can't wait 'till I have to deliver there again.
Recap: Celtics rip hearts out of Knicks, NYC
Ahh... Is there any better feeling than shutting up New Yorkers? The answer is no. Behind superhuman efforts by Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo the Celtics throttled the Knicks 113-96. And the game wasn't even that close. Pierce was lethal. He had 38 points on 14-19 FG. That's 74%. Ra...
Forget coming back next week. Come back in June. If he comes back now, he'll be out again in a week. Save him for 7 games in June!
Jermaine O'Neal back next week?
Via the Herald: Jermaine O’Neal’s recovery from knee surgery has taken a big step, according to Danny Ainge. The Celtics’ president of basketball operations watched his recuperating center work out in Chicago this morning, and later said that O’Neal’s return to the team appears to be on schedu...
Damn, I was kinda hoping you'd predict a loss tonight. The past 2 games you predicted losses and we had big wins. And if I'm not mistaken, since you started the "How we see it goin' down", you predicted all wins and the C's were something like 5-4. Numbers might be off slightly but it's around there.
How we see it goin' down: Cs vs Grizzlies

On a lighter note, the Miami Heat players were crying in the locker room after the game.
C's on Shaq: "Don't expect him any time soon"
The right Achilles tendon injury that O'Neal suffered last month is healing fine, but now he's once again bothered by some right foot soreness. Now it's to the point where the Celtics have no idea when the 7-foot-1 center who turned 39 years old today, will return to action. When asked about O...
2 Thmbs Up! Way better. A Keeper!
How we see it goin' down: C's - Suns
So we're still tinkering with the previews. We're ditching the last one. Let us know what you think of this one in the comments. Tip: 7:30pm Court: TD Garden Watch it: CSN Hear it: WEEI The Matchup Record 43-15 (1st Atlantic, 1st East) At home: 25-5 Streak: Won 2 Leaders Bucket...
actually, after re-reading the post, i guess it's not that bad. maybe do away with the fake post-game quotes, they're just unnecessary, other than that, not that bad over all.
Recap before the recap: Celtics @ Jazz
We're trying something new with our preview. We're basically writing the preview as if we're recapping the game the way we think it will go. The quotes and performances are made up, but the records, and other relevant pre-game stats are accurate. Please let us know what you think in the comme...
don't take it the wrong way, but i'm a bit superstitious and having a write up about the celtics winning before the game even starts just doesn't feel right. i don't know, let's see how tonight goes and maybe it can grow on me.
