This week’s featured fan is Nick from Malden, Ma. I’ve been interacting with Nick on Twitter for about the last two years. He is one of the more dedicated fans I know, and has been behind the C’s through good and bad. His father & uncle raised him to be a C’s fan, bringing him [...]

Ask any Celtics fan what the ultimate streak of futility is in the history of the storied franchise and they’ll be able to reel off the number and year as quickly as naming the amount of NBA leading championships they have.  Ironically, those numbers are nearly identical (18 for the losing streak, 17 for the [...]

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. “I think a lot,” he said earlier this week when asked how much the team has to get acclimated to him. “Jordan (Crawford) and I play two [...]

During his weekly appearance on Toucher and Rich Danny Ainge commented on the likelihood of the Celtics retiring the jersey numbers of Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen: Celtics President of Basketball Ops. Danny Ainge wasn’t present when the team honored Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett on Sunday, but said both players will likely be [...]

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. However, a source with direct knowledge of the situation has informed Basketball Insiders that the Celtics have demonstrated little activity as it relates to potentially moving Rondo [...]

The Celtics were one stop away from getting a win tonight, but Evan Turner’s off balance shot rolled in at the buzzer, snuffing out Boston’s chance for the “W”. I was at the Garden tonight and this one was honestly a game the C’s would have been extremely lucky to have won. The Celts gave [...]

Dave was MIA so friend of the show and season ticket holder George Deveney was kind enough to fill in. George AKA @section328 and Kurt were both at the Paul and KG return game, so that was the hot topic. They also got into the retired number debate, inbound/outbound picked a king for the week [...]

Fun read on NBA.com about player quirks that some writers find annoying. Of course, Rajon Rondo made the list: Steve Aschburner, NBA.com: Rajon Rondo letting an inbounded ball dribble and roll too long before picking it up and going. Don’t mean to pick on Rondo – he’s just one of many, including Ty Lawson, Kyrie Irving and a bunch of [...]

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.  If this season for Boston is truly about evaluating different players in different roles, throwing Johnson in with the first group only makes sense. In just a [...]

The Celtics have subjected us to some woeful performances this season, but tonight’s 114-88 drubbing in New York takes the cake. There was very little effort and even less execution. It’s a perfect 10 on the tank-o-meter. Brad Stevens summed up his team’s performance perfectly during the halftime interview with Abby Chin: AC: Where are [...]
