"I tried to foul him by hitting his arms, but he stuck his neck down," Perkins said. "It was not like I wanted to hit him that hard. I never try to hurt anybody. I wanted to give him a hard foul and I closed my eyes, so I don't know how I hit him. [...]

While the Celtics and Pistons mucked it up for 3 quarters, I fought hard to stay awake (Yes…I am that lame on a Friday night). Then it happened. Perk body slammed Jason Maxiell midway through the 4th. I awoke and so did the crowd at the Palace. Perk was ejected for the flagrant 2. Once [...]

Don't get me wrong… I'd kill to be good enough at basketball to wear ANY jersey… and I'm happy that kid won a contest to design the uniforms. But you gotta think Derrick Rose is picking that thing up and thinking "I gotta where this thing?  It looks like a night gown." (Via BallDon'tLie) [...]

Ray Allen and Eddie House are both hot.  Ray Allen and Eddie House are now wearing those ridiculous shooting sleeves.  Eddie says he's wearing it because his elbow is sore and he'll take it off when his arm feels right.  Ray has a much more disgusting reason.

Something people can relate to. Not necessarily a public thing, but a thing you twist and turn over. Kobe Bryant: [Long [...]

We got an email about this… but the Celtics prefer to respond to "legitimate" outlets like the Globe. Basketball sources confirmed to the Globe today that the Celtics have dismissed Damon Blust, the man who played mascot Lucky the Leprechaun. The Globe is investigating the reason for Blust's departure. [...]

My latest piece on The Examiner Eddie is 22 of 32 from downtown over his past 4 games.  And that includes a "night off" in Orlando (0 for 3).  Let's be clear here.  You're not supposed to shoot 7-11 from three-point land twice in a week.  And you're definitely not supposed to follow those up [...]

"Eddie's in a special place right now, and I know how he feels. It feels like every time he shoots, it's going to go in, no matter who's on him, who he is playing against. I can tell the way he's shooting it that he feels that every shot is going to go in." That's [...]
