Not for Turnovers- but for Kevin Love. He now has had his 6th 30-20 game of his Wolves career. Kevin Garnett had 5 while a Wolf.
Kind of amazing how Love has already done that in his career.

The Boston Celtics took more than two minutes to score, and when they did, their first two points were the result of a bogus foul call. An off-balance Kevin Garnett jump shot bounded off the backboard and almost smacked Mickey Mouse, chilling on his couch down in Florida, more than 1,000 miles away, straight between the eyes, but Garnett was sent to the foul line and made both free...

If you saw the opening tipoff for the Celtics-Lakers game Thursday night, then the outcome may have felt like karma. After the Celtics won the tip, Kevin Garnett hiked the ball between his legs to Rajon Rondo, who then hiked the ball to himself. I don’t know if unconventional move was a nod to the Patriots players in attendance or what, but it was pretty funny. Probably would...

This might be the first long snap ever in NBA history as Celtics forward Kevin Garnett decided to snap the ball to Rajon Rondo after the tip of Celtics/Lakers:

Hey, would you look at that. The Celtics just made football season last a little longer. Kevin Garnett long snaps the ball back to Rajon Rondo, who does a baby snap to himself. How whimsical! I figure this is the basketball equivalent to starting off your long, at-times-entertaining, but flaw-exposing speech with a punchy joke.
Kudos, Ball Don’t Lie

Many of the NFL's runner-up (ugh) New England Patriots were in attendance for the Celtics-Lakers game tonight at the Garden. Kevin Garnett and the Celtics decided to pay tribute to Belichick & Co. by long-snapping the opening tipoff to Rajon Rondo to start the game.
The strangest part is that Rondo then decided to snap it through the legs to himself, which by NBA...

The Lakers and Celtics squared off in a Thursday night matchup at the TD Garden, and a couple of the Boston players chose the moments immediately following the tip-off to hone their long-snapping skills. Jermaine O’Neal won the tip back to a waiting Kevin Garnett, who proceeded to spin and hike the ball to Rajon Rondo some 30-feet behind him. Rondo then snapped the ball...

Kevin Garnett talks about Rondo’s “bad day.” Paul Pierce had a rough game, committing a key turnover to keep the game in reach. Doc Rivers is in a better mood with the win. Chris Wilcox got to flash some rare athleticism in green, while Keyon Dooling returned from a hip pointer.

Doc Rivers looked defeated after his team met that fate against the Lakers. Kevin Garnett was left off the All-Star team for the first time in over a decade. Paul Pierce missed his chance to nail the game-winner. Ray Allen was open on the last play of regulation, but Pierce couldn’t get him the ball.

I often wonder what opposing teams, their beat reporters and bloggers are saying about the Celtics after playing the Celtics. Here's a dose of 'enemy chatter' from Los Angeles.
The Lakers survived because the Celtics couldn't take advantage of another weak offensive output. Ray Allen hit some shots early, and one big three late, but Paul Pierce could only manage...

The quality of basketball wasn't quite at the level of 2008 or 2010 (or my kids youth league), but the drama was vintage Celtics vs Lakers.
In the end, the Lakers were a smidge less awful than the Celtics. The result - an 88-87 LA victory in overtime.
In a game officiated to their benefit (rough), the Celtics took only 5 free throws. None of those FTs came in the second half...

NEW YORK — Dirk Nowitzki's streak survives, despite one of the worst seasons of his career. Two other old stars are no longer All-Stars. Nowitzki was chosen Thursday to his 11th straight All-Star game, with coaches overlooking the lowest scoring average since his second NBA season in favor of his ...
