New Boston Celtics wing Mickael Pietrus won’t just play tomorrow against the Dallas Mavericks. He also looked healthy enough during practice that he will not have any minutes restriction. (ESPN)Celtics coach Doc Rivers said he expects swingman Mickael Pietrus to be in the lineup on Wednesday after a “sensational” day of practice on Tuesday. “He looked great...

Earlier today, one bit of news simultaneously hurt Boston’s chances of pulling back to .500 and built the stage for a meeting that could be monumental. Derrick Rose told ESPN’s John Buccigross he will play tonight against the Celtics. His presence makes Chicago considerably more formidable, as the presence of a defending MVP normally does, but it also allows us to gauge...

Mickael Pietrus hasn't stepped on the floor for the Celtics since signing with the team a couple of weeks ago. But it looks like the veteran forward will be ready to go for Wednesday night's showdown with the defending NBA champions. Pietrus said he'd be ready "in 48 hours" on Monday, just in time for the Celtics' game against the Dallas Mavericks at TD...

Pietrus joined the Celtics after being waived by the Phoenix Suns in December. He was quickly signed by Boston later in the day.
Pietrus had knee surgery this past summer and was originally traded to the Toronto Raptors. The Raptors, however...

Lost in the shuffle of the eventful game that went down to the wire last night between Celtics and Mavericks was the fact that Mickael Pietrus made his Boston Celtics debut. The Celtics desperately need a shooter and defender off the bench to spell Paul Pierce. Pietrus was billed as that guy. After last night’s game many left with the feeling that Pietrus was as good as advertised...

It is rare to see someone as happy to fight as Mickael Pietrus was Wednesday night. The 29-year-old swingman, who was voided as trade bait less than a month ago due to a surgically repaired knee, entered Wednesday's game against the Mavericks with 1:25 left in the first quarter as a roar went up from the crowd. The newest Celtic's defensive intensity was immediate, and on...

After watching the first eight Celtics games this year, one glaring need is a shooter off the bench. As much as I love the way Marquis Daniels can find a way to get to the basket, the Celtics need a guy that can shoot and stretch the floor. Daniels just does not have that ability to hit the open jump shot and the result is defenses are collapsing in the paint and the bench scoring...

The Celtics are a veteran heavy team that doesn’t have much P.T. for rookies. That being said, they might have found a nugget in 26-year old center Greg Steimsma. Steimsma has played in 6 games (1 start) for the Celtics so far this year and he is averaging 14.8 minutes, 3.7 points, 3.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 2.2 blocked shots per game. The Celtics love Steimsma’...
