Celtics newcomer Mickael Pietrus talks to the media about his love for Kevin Garnett, including how much he learns from him and tries to emulate his pre-game warm-up routine (minus banging his head). Pietrus discusses his fight with Garnett during last year's Suns-Celtics game, and confesses that the main reason he came to Boston was to play with KG and Doc Rivers.

I meant to do Kevin Garnett justice with this piece.To describe everything he’s meant to the Celtics, taking them from irrelevant to champions in less than one year.To explain what he’s meant to me, a sophomore in college at the time Garnett was traded, a business major who started a blog for a class and never stopped blogging, mostly because writing about the Big Three...

It’s been a while folks. From 2007 thru 2010, it seemed, the now infamous Gino, was the 13th man for the Celtics. Instead of a victory lap or march, the Boston Celtics celebrate a closing win with the 1970s socialite that dominates the jumbotron at the Garden. The fans break out into there best disco [...]

I don't care about the Cavs comeback from a 22-point deficit in the 3rd quarter. Two plays defined this game.
Kevin Garnett's turnaround jumper with 1:04 remaining that stretched the lead to 4. And twenty seconds later, Jermaine O'Neal stuffed Anderson Varejao to preserve that lead.
The Celtics were outscored 32-17 in the 4th quarter. The energy disparity between...

Last night the Boston Celtics needed a boost. The Celtics knew that the Cavs defensive plan was going to at some point be to take away the perimeter shooting of Ray Allen and Paul Pierce. This means Boston needed to attack the paint. Kevin Garnett is the obvious choice, but he can not do it by himself due to the fact the doubles are going to eventually find him. The Celtics needed...

Voting numbers for the 2012 NBA All-Star game were released tonight on the TNT pre-game show, and it should come as no surprise that none of the members of the Boston Celtics were voted as starters. However, Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen have a good chance on making the line-up as reserves, with Kevin Garnett also in the running. Full Eastern Conference vote tallies are displayed below...

A 21-point Celtics lead had become two. Fewer than two minutes remained in the fourth quarter. Anderson Varejao had already stacked 20 points and 20 rebounds. A perfunctory win had begotten the possibility of a disappointing déjà vu, and the ball found itself cradled in Kevin Garnett’s hands, his back to the basket.His turnaround jump shot hit the front rim, bounded into...

DanThe Big Three dominated their decade with an iron fist. No, I’m not talking about the Miami Heat, yet. No I’m not talking about Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett either.

I don’t even know how badly I lost last week. It could’ve been 3-6, 2-7, or even 1-8. I didn’t dare to look, but I know I got creamed. I was way out-gamed and I knew going in that it was basically a bad loss waiting to happen, but now I’ve got all but one of my injured players back and it’s time for me to put up or shut up. I didn’t have...
