Just as a precursor before I dive into this: I do not think Gordon Hayward is currently close to 100% and I don't think he will round into that form before/during the playoffs. Now that we have that out of the way, let's dive into some good news regarding the former All-Star. Slowly but surely,... Continue Reading →
Ahead of their matchup tonight with the Clippers, the Memphis Grizzlies currently hold the NBA's 8th worst record. If you recall, the Celtics own their pick but the main caveat is that it's 1-8 protected. While usually it'd make sense to be rooting for the Grizzlies to win some games so the pick can convey,...

To start this off I would like to say Happy Birthday Smarf and I hope you vanquish all of your enemies in due time. Ever since Danny Ainge pulled the trigger on Marcus Smart with the 6th pick in the 2014 NBA Draft I've been all the way in on his work. He is an... Continue Reading →
https://twitter.com/SeanGrandePBP/status/1103174240767893504 That is easily the most mind blowing stat to come out of last night's game. The Warriors have run the league for five years, yet they only struggle, if you can even call it that, against one team; the Boston Celtics. Since 2015-2016 the Warriors are 4-4 against Boston, who seemingly elevates their play... Continue Reading →
After what has been a rough time to be a Celtics fan I've started to really think about what they could possibly do to flip things around. Sure, it's easy to do what Brad Stevens and Kyrie Irving did yesterday and say their problem is that they just need to play better. It's also easy... Continue Reading →
Amidst a 4 game losing streak and an inability to get off the schneid since the All-Star break we haven't had much good news to soak in. Today (so far, no promises about the rest of it) has been different. https://twitter.com/ChrisForsberg_/status/1101526827326210048 Remember Aron Baynes??? It's seemed like an eternity since we've seen him play (he... Continue Reading →
As of this writing the Celtics stink. No two ways about it, they aren't an elite basketball team. Now, they very much can elevate to that level, and they will, but right now everyone is completely justified in their overreactions. This team was supposed to go wire to wire in first, yet they were only... Continue Reading →
We've all heard enough about how poorly Jaylen Brown started this season and how well Marcus Morris Sr. started this season. Morris was dancing around a 50-40-90 season and Jaylen was building 2 bedroom apartments regularly with his inability to put the ball in the bucket. Brad Stevens did what we'd expect him to do...

For whatever reason, the All-Star Break in the NBA is considered the halfway point in the season even though 58 out of 82 is most certainly not half, but we'll play by the rules here. As it stands, the Celtics are 37-21 in what has been a roller coaster of a season through the All-Star... Continue Reading →
