How Shaq helps the Celtics

According to A. Sherrod Blakely via Twitter, Shaq is going to sign with the Boston Celtics. There are many out there that feel this is a bad move due to the age and the disappointing performance he showed with Cleveland this past season. But when it all boils down, this is a huge addition to the team that was so close to winning banner 18.

Celtics Finish Strong 96-84

And the whole of Gang Green breathed a sigh of relief.  I believe a small trailer park in Kentucky was just wiped off the face of the Earth with the massive exhale of the held breath that the Celtics faithful have had burning in their lungs since the end of fame 5. Paul Pierce once [...]

‘Game Seven’ for Boston Celtics Tonight

‘Game Seven’ for Boston Celtics Tonight

For many year’s I have been bitching about ESPN always predicting the Celtics to lose. I have changed my tune. Since game four, the Celtics have been the overwhelming favorite to close out the series by ESPN “experts.” Since then, the Celtics have dropped two straight game’s and the momentum has shifted towards the Magic.

Rasheed Doing Better but Still Questionable for Game 6

Rasheed Doing Better but Still Questionable for Game 6

Bad back’s are something the Celtics have had to learn a lot about over the past two decades. Larry Bird’s career was cut short by bulging discs in his back. Rasheed Wallace is suffering from a strain in his lower back after tweaking it Wednesday night in Orlando. ESPN is reporting that ‘Sheed could not [...]

Demonstrations of Dwight’s Despicable Defensive Tactics

Demonstrations of Dwight’s Despicable Defensive Tactics

Here is a nice montage of Dwight Howards’ “inadvertent elbows.” Whether Dwight intentionally fouls players and than hides behind his smile, cape, god, whatever… it’s getting out of control.

Perk Tech Rescinded; Will Start Game Six

Perk Tech Rescinded; Will Start Game Six

No shock here… Kendrick Perkins’ second technical foul was rescinded today. He is now eligible to start in game six. The first technical assessed, the most ridiculous of the two, was not rescinded. Does this make sense to you? Regardless, Perk will start in game six which is a relief for Celtics fans. If the [...]

If Orlando Hands Out Noisemakers Again, I Will Be Pissed

If Orlando Hands Out Noisemakers Again, I Will Be Pissed

Seriously, eff noisemakers.  Their sole purpose was to make a small crowd seem larger than they actually were.  I get clackers at Triple A games, MLS games and paper plates taped together with beans in them at high school games.  There is no place for any sort of giveaway like that in the pros.  Sorry.
