If you ever wondered why Mikki Moore failed with the Celtics last season...this is why. Watching the video, I'm not sure whether Shannon Brown bowled Moore over or if a stray breeze knocked Mikki down. Thanks to Wild Yams for the link.

I hate to make assumptions after the first preseason game, but Kevin Garnett appears to be healthy and well, he looks like the old KG. The intensity and energy only KG can bring to a game was back.

The Celtics stormed out of the gates last night and made it clear in the first 8 minutes of the game that they're going to be pretty good this year. KG looked like hie same old self, minus a little bit of his explosion. Pierce and Ray made some familiar looking strong plays on offense.

The Celtics started off this year's pre-season just like they finished last year's post-season - with a loss. The Ming-less Rockets disposed of the Celtics, 96-90. Unfortunately, with Directv blacking out the exhibition games this year, I wasn't able to see any of the game. Instead, I periodically checked the live gamecast. Yeah - not ideal. I sure am glad that I fork...

ATLANTIC DIVISION1-BOSTON CELTICS (starters-Rondo, Allen, Pierce, Garnett, Perkins): Kevin Garnett will be back which should keep the team hungry. Key bench addition Rasheed Wallace adds to the hunger and another champion. The item to watch is the age factor. Is the core getting a bit long in the tooth? Also, how will Rondo respond after an offseason where rumors swirled that he...
