Doc on Pierce’s knee injury: He should not have been playing
Doc Rivers spoke to the media before the Celtics-Kings game yesterday and touched on a number of topics. One was the status of Paul Pierce’s knee.

It’s just amazing to think at what kind...

Courtney Lee Trade Would Continue Celtics' Successful Offseason of Getting Younger While Staying in Contention
The rebuilding process between championships took more than two decades the last time the Celtics did it. With their moves this offseason, the Celtics have set themselves up for a much shorter drought, if it can even be called that. One of the hardest things for an NBA executive to do is to make his team younger while staying in championship contention. With the Celtics' anticipated...
Boston Celtics: And then there was… none?
The Celtics’ hope to find a quality sharp-shooting two guard to help replace Ray Allen and fill in for Avery Bradley as he recovers from shoulder surgery just got a little bleaker as two of Danny Ainge’s top free agent targets recently came off the market for the C’s. On Monday night OJ Mayo, [...]
Video: Rajon Rondo interviewed by the French
We heard recently that Rondo was in Paris for the World Basketball Festival here's a short interview he gave with the french media.
Notably Rondo thinks this team will have good chemistry. He seems excited that Jason Terry is on the team and that a lot of players from last year are returning.
I also thought Rondo's response was funny when the french reporter asked if...

Jermaine O'Neal wanted to score more in Boston
Boston Herald
“I had a fantastic time in Boston, an unbelievable sports town, fans and organization. But it wasn’t necessarily the best fit basketball wise. Your comfort level is everything.
Sometimes when you’re asked not to worry about some of the stronger parts of your game, which is scoring, and only [focus on] defense, that’s difficult to do.”

Courtney Lee is close to joining the Celtics
The Celtics needed one more veteran shooting guard to round out their roster and it looks as if they got him. They are currently finalizing a deal with the Houston Rockets to acquire Courtney Lee for JuJuan Johnson, E’Twaun Moore and Sean Williams in addition to a second round pick.
I like this deal because the Celtics barely gave up...

Your Morning Dump… Where we probably shouldn’t expect Courtney Lee, either
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.
It’s not like the Celtics don’t want to wrap up their roster renovation, it’s just that free agent guard Courtney Lee wisely listened to the advice of his agent, Dan Fegan, who told him to be patient...
Jeremy Lin: “I love the New York fans to death”
Earlier on Wednesday Jeremy Lin –now of the Houston Rockets — opened up about free agency and how he went from the height of Lin-sanity to someone who fell from the graces of James Dolan.
