Jeff Green’s agent, David Falk, says his client is “100 percent,” fielding interest from 12-14 teams, and the second-best unrestricted free agent on the market. He said Green would return from heart surgery “better than ever” and isn’t committed to re-signing with the Boston Celtics, though they currently rest atop his list.I’ve never met Falk personally, but I imagine...

Avery Bradley is a Certified SneakerHead

  Celtics stopper Avery Bradley had a break out season with the Celtics this past season.  He is spending his hard earned money this off-season on some of the worlds priciest kicks.  Over the past two weeks Bradley has posted pictures of his latest cops on Instagram.  This list includes the Nike Air Yeezy 2, Air Jordan 12 Retro Obsidian/White, and a $1,295 pair of gold Chistian...

Ryan Hollins hoping to stick with the Celtics

CSNNE “Of course,” he told CSNNE.com. “I would love to be here next season.” “I know the type of players that Paul and Kevin and Ray (Allen) and (Rajon) Rondo are and how they want to win,” said Hollins. “Going against those guys on the other side, I’d always felt like I was a fit for this team and the way that Doc (Rivers) coaches and the way that players play over...

Your Morning Dump… where Perk thinks KG’s coming back to Boston

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. “I feel like if he does return to basketball, I think that that would be the team,’’ Perkins said of the Celtics. “I heard Kevin say a few times that he wouldn’t want to play for anybody but Doc, so...

Jeff Green's Return to Celtics Not a Certainty, As Other Teams Showing Interest, According to Agent

When the Celtics traded for Jeff Green, they were operating under the assumption that he'd become a big part of their future plans. He still might, but it may take some work to keep him in Boston. Green, who missed all of this season due to a serious heart condition, is on the comeback trail and will be available to any team when the NBA free agency period starts on July 1. While...

26 Years Ago Today

The sting never wears off.  The blow never lessens.  26 years ago today, the fate of our beloved Boston Celtics changed in an instant when Len Bias passed away.  Is it selfish of me to still have visions of Parish taking a baseline fall away that bounces high off the top of the rim only to be flushed down by a streaking Len Bias?  Or Larry Bird throwing an alley-oop from just...

How old man Kevin Garnett taught me a little lesson

It’s been over a week since I came to the conclusion that Kevin Garnett would retire after this season. I was convinced of it immediately after watching KG answer a question from ESPN’s Doris Burke after the Celtics beat the Miami Heat in game 5 of the NBA Eastern Conference Finals. Burke asked KG what fuels him after 17 years in the league. KG said “competition”, then...

Celtics' Reported Targeting of Omer Asik Could Impact Kevin Garnett

Kevin Garnett spent the second half of this season reminding everyone who asked that he does not like being a center. He fancies himself a forward, and no amount of praise for his play at the pivot is likely to change his opinion soon. The good news for Garnett is, he does not have to be a center anymore if he does not want to. The unrestricted free agent is believed to want to return...

Celtics considering strong offer for Bulls center

IAMGM: According to Sam Smith from Bulls.com: The Celtics are one the teams said to be considering a strong offer to Bulls center Omer Asik. The thinking is it might help them retain Kevin Garnett, who though playing very well at center the second half of the season doesn’t want to return as a center. Asik would definitely be a great add, but I'd prefer him coming off of the...

Many options lie ahead for Celtics in draft

With the NBA draft fast approaching (and the Celtics offseason starting earlier than most of us had expected/hoped for) it is time to take a look ahead at the offseason. This offseason figures to be one of the more interesting in recent memory, given the plethora of options available to the Celtics; the biggest of which being the decision to rebuild or to make one more push with...

Celtics, Pistons, Cavaliers and Clippers have shown interest. — Alex Kennedy (@AlexKennedyNBA) June 14, 2012 Sonny Weems is super athletic and still young (turns 26 this Summer).

Flip Saunders, who coached Kevin Garnett in Minnesota from 1995-2005, is pretty confident that KG will be back in Celtics green next season. Saunders worked as a consultant for Doc Rivers and the Celtics this postseason and told the Minneapolis StarTribune this weekend that he was ‘positive’ that Garnett would return to Boston for the 2012-2013 season. From the StarTrib: One...
