Your Morning Dump… Where Jason Collins had an amazing impact last night

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. “Jason Collins, for getting one point and two rebounds, had an amazing impact on the game for us,” said Celtics coach Doc Rivers. His ability to defend the post and draw charges not only provided a much-needed...

Wilcox happy for team despite DNP; Green possibly not as much

Doc Rivers has changed his rotations this week. Two players impacted have been Chris Wilcox and Jeff Green. Wilcox registered a DNP last night as Doc gave Jason Collins the starting center role.

Doc Rivers Says Celtics Are Not A Veteran Team

With a slew of veterans with varying levels of experience, the Boston Celtics have the appearance of a veteran team. But as Celtics coach Doc Rivers points out, there’s more to having a veteran team than simply throwing together a bunch of guys who have been around the NBA block a few times. “Where I think people get mixed up, there’s a difference between a veteran team and...

Jason Terry takes a shot at Ray Allen while praising Paul Pierce

Jason Terry has been trying to become one of the vocal leaders of the Boston Celtics since coming to the team this past offseason, but by the numbers it doesn’t appear he has been all that effective. The Celtics are 13-12 and have been incredibly inconsistent, both offensively and defensively. Terry’s play has been the same. Paul Pierce scored a season-high 40 points on Wednesday...

Your Morning Dump..Where Jet is best off the bench

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. Steve Bulpett-“In Terry, Doc Has Plenty of Reserve” Despite struggling in the 2nd half, Jason Terry had 17 big points off the bench in Boston’s loss at San Antonio on Saturday.

Celtics have strong interest in Anderson Varejao

Sam Amico via Sulia The Celtics, ranked 29th in rebounding, do have a strong interest in Cavs' Anderson Varejao, but the question is what could Celtics offer that the Cavs would want? (And don't say Jared Sullinger. Cavs didn't have an interest in him on draft night and likely still don't.) That's the trouble with trading Varejao. Teams with a strong interest...

Cleveland Cavaliers center Anderson Varejao missed Wednesday night's game against the Boston Celtics because of a bruised right knee. Varejao, the NBA's leading rebounder at 14.4 per game, was injured Tuesday night against Toronto when he landed awkwardly on his right leg and crumpled to the floor in pain after being fouled late in the first quarter. He limped to the locker...
