Brandon Bass will miss the next 7-10 days due to a sore, swollen knee, leaving the Boston Celtics without their sixth man and primary bench scoring option. The Celtics often discuss injuries in time frames that are similar to dog years — where “7-10 days” means “out at least a month” — so let’s hope this isn’t another one of those occasions. I’m no knee specialist, but random swelling doesn’t sound great. At least he didn’t punch a friend in the face while his friend was driving a motor vehicle, which is how a certain former Celtics backup big man missed 27 games (I believe) at the start of the 2009-10 season. And no, I don’t know why I sometimes revert to bashing Glen Davis when I start to feel insecure about the Celtics.Jermaine O’Neal (body made of Fig Newtons) will also miss today’s game, a development which led to this sentence being written by Paul Flannery: “Chris Wilcox will start at ce...

Your Morning Dump... Where #9 was edgy

Via Red's Army  |  February 13, 2012
Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here... highlighting the big storyline. Because there's nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump. "Nine [Rondo] was edgy today, man. I loved it," Garnett said. "I love the fact that he came out and he set the tone. And I thought he got guys involved and he was all over the place. When we win...

Rajon Rondo did a lot of things in 21 seconds

Via The Nosebleeds  |  February 13, 2012
With a little over 9 minutes to go in the 4th quarter at the Garden on Sunday, I pointed out Rondo's stats on the scoreboard to my buddy. He figured there was no chance for a triple-double because at the time Rajon had just 6 rebounds. But after tracking down two in the game's final 21 seconds, he finished with 32 points, 15 assists, and 10 boards. There's only been...

Could Brandon Jennings be a trade piece for Rajon Rondo?

Celtics Live Blog: Former C's Assistant Coach Tom Thibodeau Leads First-Place Bulls Into Boston

8 a.m. ET: The four-leaf clover wasn't so lucky for the Celtics this week, as the C's get two meetings with the Central Division-leading Bulls. The first of those matchups takes place Sunday in Boston, where the Celtics have won four of their last five games.

Three weeks into this condensed season, Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau was touting JaJuan Johnson as a player who would be a factor in the Celtics’ season. At that point, after 10 games, Johnson had exactly one NBA field goal.
