Garnett waiting on the Celtics

Via Bloguin Best  |  June 14, 2012
One of the most interesting teams to watch this offseason will be the Boston Celtics. They have to face the decision of bringing back their aging veterans or letting their stars go and starting over. They were within one win of the NBA Finals, so it would be hard to make the argument that the current team they have doesn’t work, but will the wear and tear of another year push them...

What the Hell Happened to...Jim Paxson?

"The Teammate Who Blasted Larry Bird." I was convinced he was the missing piece in 1988.  I was elated when the Celtics were able to acquire him and knew he'd push them over the top.  His brother John should not be the more memorable of the two but happens to be so, since he teamed with MJ for 3 titles with the Bulls in the early 90s.  He shouldn't be remembered...

End of an era!

Via Eye On Sports with Eric Williams  |  June 15, 2012
Did the Miami Heat bring Boston’s ‘big Three’ era to an unceremoniously end last week? Most basketball observers think so to some degree – and I agree. While I believe it’s of the utmost importance that Boston bring back unrestricted free agent Kevin Garnett, I can very well see the team losing sweet-shooting two guard Ray Allen. Allen may have finished up the 2011-12 season...
