at Cleveland Cavaliers (7-11) at Boston Celtics (9-9) Sunday, January 29 Regular Season Game #19, Home Game #12 TV: CSN-NE, FSO, NBA-LP 751/752 Radio: WEEI, WTAM TD Garden Referees: Marc Davis, Eric Lewis, Scott Wall This is the first meeting between these two teams and is the first game in the Celtics third home and home series this season. They fared very well in their first two home and home series, sweeping both the Wizards and the Magic in the previous two. Last season the Celtics won the series 2-1 with the loss coming in the second game of the season, the night after their big win over the Heat. The Cavs have struggled since LeBron went to South Beach and took his talents with him. Their wins have come against other struggling teams, including Detroit, New Jersey, Charlotte, and Minnesota. But, if the Celtics don't stay focused and play them tough, they do have enough talent to pull out a win. The Celtics should get Ray Allen and Jermai...

Boston Celtics Paul Pierce Has Made Rajon Rondo Expendable?

The Boston Celtics were 4-8 and struggling. The offense was lost most of the time as the Celtics failed to have any rhythm. The troubling part is the team failed to crack 80 points in a vast majority of the games after some wretched starts that saw the team fail to score even 40 points at the half. The offense looked like they were going to take another hit as star point guard Rajon...

Doc Rivers in the Running for Father of the Year

Remember when Doc was weighing whether he wanted to stay on as the Celtics head coach or spend at least a year away from coaching so he could spend more time watching his kids play collegiately? Well it looks like he has figured out a way to do both. It seems every time I turn on a tv and see Duke, there's Doc in the stands. Like today for instance. Duke defeated St. John'...

Rajon Rondo may not return until the All-Star break

The All-Star break isn't exactly right around the corner. It's a month away. One month is a far cry from what we've been continuously hearing from Rondo and the Celtics about the point guard trying to convince the medical staff that he's been ready to play all this week. This wrist injury might be more serious than we initially thought.

Ask Dr. John: How Long Should It Take For Rajon Rondo’s Wrist To Heal?

I’m often asked by Celtics fans how long will it take Rondo’s wrist sprain to heal.  And the answer is…it depends. Wrist sprains are different forms of a ligament injury. Ligaments connect bones together and provide stability to the joints.  One way to think about them is to imagine them like cords that tether the [...]

Ray Allen returns but Celtics give game to Cleveland 88-87

ESPN-Getty Images Boston gave the game away to Cleveland, 88-87 as they turned the ball over on their last three possessions. Ray Allen returned with 22 points but it wasn’t enough as Kyrie Irving is the hero with the game winning lay up. The officials swallowed their whistles at the end, which frustrated the Celtics. Unable to play through it, the Celtics gave this one away...

Your Morning Dump... WTF got into Chris Wilcox??

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.   “Last night got me a little more comfortable,” said Wilcox. “Tonight, I just wanted to play hard. I was a little winded but it was a good one.” Contributions from the nine-year veteran were...

The Two Guards Not Named Rajon Rondo

Follow Mike Macchi on Twitter today! The Boston Celtics are showing some life once again. Just when things were looking grim for the veteran squad, General Manager Danny Ainge was making declarations that he was taking ten games to evaluate the team and the offense was putting up 71 points against a historically poor defensive [...]

Celtics Get Revenge, Beat Pacers 94-87

If anyone thinks the Boston Celtics are too old to be a top team in the NBA still, think again. After playing a long 44 minutes in Orlando on Friday night, Pierce was able to make it to the Boston hotel at 3 A.M. on Friday. Last night, he showed no signs of fatigue: just how much of an All-Pro basketball player he was as he helped the Boston Celtics to a 94-87 victory over the Indiana...
