The Boston Celtics have become even more reliant on Kevin Garnett in this postseason -- at least when they want to win -- and it's created a dilemma. On one hand, the club knows it needs to get him ample rest if he is to play at a high level. On the other hand, the C's can't afford to have him out of the game for too long. Doc Rivers has tried to manage the 36-year...

A.B. That’s a sweet Garnett big head but an even sweeter 90′s looking bicep tattoo.

Kevin Garnett is the key to winning this series. When he gets the ball in a good position and gets good, open shots.. the Celtics do extremely well.
KG has had some problems establishing the post against Lavoy Allen. The kid is strong and he has had some success pushing KG out of his comfort zone. Since the C's need to establish the post against the Sixers to get the...

There's a whole lot to like about Doc Rivers as the coach for the Boston Celtics. One of those attributes, for me at least, is his candor. If Doc thinks he made a mistake, he'll readily admit as much. He tends to correct those mistakes almost as quickly as he makes them too.
Throughout the first three games of the Celtics' series with the Philadelphia 76ers, Boston pushed...

Philadelphia Inquirer writer John Mitchell obviously took offense to Kevin Garnett calling Philly fans “fair weathered”. So he decided to take a moment to respond Garnett’s claims. But that’s not all. While responding to the comments, he went ahead and called Boston fans “bigoted”.
And here we go.
You think we’re the fair weather type, do you? Ok, to that I say that...

Over the past five years, the Boston Celtics have developed something of a reputation for being one the most diligent, composed, veteran groups in the NBA, and they've got two NBA Finals appearances and one shimmering Larry O'Brien Trophy that suggest that their earnest attitude and enduring focus breed positive results.
But despite all of the Celtics' talent and chemistry...

The Celtics guard has been limited since dislocating his left shoulder several times, most recently in Friday's Game 4 against the Sixers in Philadelphia. Bradley...
