In Ainge I trust we have to beat these jokers...
A pump up video... and my pre-game speech to the fans
Ladies and Gentlemen, We stand here tonight in our green and white gear... perhaps reading on a cell phone at a bar... on a tablet at some Starbucks, or on a computer at home... as a fan-base hoping for history. We stand here tonight, as a diverse group of young and old... black and wh...
Ther is stil hope.
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...
Heat outlast the Celtics but did not win regardless the series was determined lastnight. Thanks Ainge for doing your best.
I play at the rex-plex on wed nights bring it Lebum
Recap: Sometimes grit and balls isn't enough
An epic performance by Rajon Rondo and a tremendous "grit and balls" effort by the Celtics tonight was marred by wretched officiating. I didn't want to bitch about the officials. The game was too good. But I can't stomach the bias. Just look at the photo. With the game tied at 105 in overtime...
I would not trade Rondo or the Truth n as far as Rondo in the post I liked it rack up some fouls n make them adjust. The Bulls are to deep and played with a chip from there last lost to the Celtics. One of the big three needs to come off the bench. In Ainge I trust
Recap: Celtics pull the old rally-and-fade
How many times have we seen the new Big 3-era Celtics fall behind early, claw their way back, only to fade in the 4th quarter? Tonight was one of those nights. The 2nd quarter was horrendous. The Cs shot 3-for-15. They were outrebounded 19-3. A 7-point lead was transformed into a 9-point defic...
Lin is what the nba needs right now a good story cause most games have been tough to watch. Unselfish but willing to take the big shots.
Jeremy Lin continues to play out of his mind
Just another ho-hum night for Jeremy Lin. 27 points, 11 assists and a game-winning three pointer in Toronto. This can't continue, can it? Can a player really go from 12th man to superstar in the span of a week? Anyone who makes a play-on-words with his name gets banned from the site.
Long live redsarmy you don't know what you got til its almost gone.
An apology for, and explanation of, our recent technical issues
Dear Red's Army reader, We would like to sincerely apologize for the technical issues that have plagued our site for the past few days. We feel like we've resolved most of them, but there are still some residual errors. We like to have fun here at Red's Army (as you can tell by the photo)...
Pierce for Smith don't see it Pierce ain;t gonna anywhere he would hate any of these landing spots. Indiana is set why bring in an old guy mempis is over Pierce would never agree to any of these trade. Been drinkin screw my spelling
Ex-Celtics coach offers trade scenarios involving Pierce
Former Celtics head coach John Carroll (2003-04, the bridge guy from Jim O'Brien to Doc Rivers) is a contributing writer for ESPN.com. He's come up with 5 logical trade scenarios involving Paul Pierce. 1. To Atlanta for Josh Smith 2. To Memphis for Rudy Gay 3. To Indiana for Danny Granger 4. To...
It sucks to get old...
Recap: MY EYES!! MY EYES!!!!
My favorite thing about tonight is finding an eye wash station photo made by a company named Bradley. The Boston Celtics and Phoenix Suns participated in an affront to basketball, subjecting fans to a 79-71 horror show that featured 40.5% shooting by your boys in White & Green. Actually, Avery...
I like the article you have to look at all the options however I hope Paul gets to have the final say to go or stay.
Schwan: Do the right thing Danny. Trade Paul Pierce
By Henry Schwan There are reports that the Celtics are receiving inquiries from other teams about Paul Pierce. This is a no-brainer. Danny Ainge should trade him while the 34-year-old former All-Star still has some value. I wouldn't settle for less than a future first round pick and a young p...
Low balling give me a break. If Minn's wants to build any kind of team around him and if he wants to stay then its a good deal for the team and the league.
Wolves are low-balling Kevin Love
Kevin Love is having a monster season. He's 4th in scoring (25.6 ppg) and 2nd in rebounding (14.3 rpg). At age 23, Love is considered one of the game's rising stars. One would assume the Wolves are prepared to open the vault in order to keep him in a Wolves uniform. Maybe not: Love, 23, who i...
In Ainge I trust.
Woj: Several teams have asked about Pierce
Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski says GM's are calling Danny Ainge and asking about Paul Pierce: As Kevin Garnett and Allen become free agents this summer, money will peel away from the salary cap. Between then and now, the bigger question promises to be: Does ownership and general manager Danny Ainge...

Owners luxury tax proposal is ridiculous
SI got its hands on the owners luxury tax proposal. All I can say is... wow! In a nutshell, it starts at a $1.75-to-1 tax that increases 50 cents every five million you're over the cap. Follow that link for the exact breakdown, which will make more sense when you see it. The kicker, and the p...
Love the passion of that article. The owners should take most of the blame for those bad contracts but in many cases the superstars force there hands in sighing someone to get them over the hump and when that guy sucks the all-star moves on. We are living in radical times overhual the system I will wait.
The rant of an angry basketball fan
Raise your hand if you are furious at NBA ownership. I understand [some] owners are losing money. I understand the current revenue split is advantageous to the players. I understand the system needs an overhaul. But what the owners are asking of the players is unrealistic. This type of change...
That sucks I feel for ya.
