Are we serious here? Celtic bench players make more than 11k per game. KG makes that in a few minutes.....yet all the team could raise was $11,000 for this dude? Ya, real saintly. That's the equivalent of a common man giving the guy two dollars.
Celtics lend a hand to ball boy
(picture courtesy of Boston Herald) Celtics ball boy, Moises St. Fleur, aka "Mo", has been through quite a bit since St. Patrick's Day. His family home in Everett was completely burned down in a tragic fire. His family lost everything-clothes, food, furniture, everything. That's where the city...
Actually, does it go down to 12 for the playoffs?!?!
Celtics sign PG Carlos Arroyo
The Boston Globe's Celtics blog reports that the C's have inked Carlos Arroyo. Arroyo is a 12-year vet who last played for the Miami Heat. He has career averages of 6 points and 3 assists per game. Many felt with Delonte West banged-up, Bradley still green (pun intended) and Rondo loggin...
What do you mean, doesn't make the playoff roster? The playoff roster is the same size as the regular season roster, 15.

Too bad Ainge didn't call Ms. Cleo to find out this move was happening. Had he done so, Boston wouldn't have gone after Green - and Perk would still be a Celtic. Oops.
Hey... how about Corey Brewer?
Twitter / Marc Stein: Just filed to ESPN.com: So ... via kwout Well... here's a surprise. The C's had tried to get in on Corey Brewer while the whole Carmelo deal was going down. In fact, it was their interest that held things up for a little while. Brewer won't tear it up on offense....
I absolutely realize that - my post was intended to be more of a blanket statement. Regardless, likening this whole thing to losing a family member - is sort of melodramatic. KG is being paid $19 million to play basketball - leave the sentimental stuff up to the fans. If KG and the Big 3 are as great as we give them credit for, their leadership will make things work. I hate to think the success of the Big 3 has always hinged on a low-post banger like Perk.
Danny gambled and lost, so now he's going all in
It was a busy summer for Danny Ainge. After working out deals for Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, he had to find their back-ups and fill the hole left by an injured Kendrick Perkins. And he did a pretty good job of it too, constructing a roster that was deep just about everywhere except one: The...
We get it - you're upset they lost Perkins - when push comes to shove, do you think he would have signed in Boston for a bargain? The fact is, Boston lost out when they couldn't get Ronnie Brewer or Matt Barnes this offseason.
I agree Quis is a large part of the reason Perkins is gone, but let's see what Perkins does in OKC, before we can say this is an awful trade. Perk played good D - but has a poor offensive game outside the paint. In an ideal world, Boston signs Brewer or Barnes in the offseason, but that's not Ainge's fault.
Regardless, it's time to move on. Kendrick Perkins will be okay. This whole - I felt like a family member died thing, is a bit overkill.
