Paul Pierce continues to lead the Boston Celtics

Paul Pierce has been leading the Celtics for years, and this year is no different.  With Kevin Garnett still not back to his old self yet, Pierce has been doing what it takes to keep the Celtics on top of the Eastern Conference.  The Celtics are off to a 5-0 start and Pierce is the [...]

Comments from the Other Side - Hornets 11/1

Can't say that I'm looking forward to this game. Celts are 3-0, Hornets at 1-1. Hornets still trying to jell as a team with 2 new starters in the lineup and six new players overall. Rondo vs CP3 should be a very good matchup. Somebody should show cp3 those comments by rondo that he is only good cause he always has the ball. CP's gonna walk all over him. ...

SLAM #87

Originally published in SLAM 87 The 6th Man: One was so long overdue it was bordering on the outrageous, the other’s outrageousness made his time border on overdue. Allow me to explain. Yes, we did it again. Two the hard way, covers split between East and West in honor of the All-Star Game (just passed as you read this) and the playoff races, heating up as we speak. It didn’t...
