Via Red's Army  |  January 17, 2012
Some of us are optimistic the Celtics will get their sh*t together and turn on the jets... eventually. They can't be this bad for the duration of the season, can they? The Cs are 4-8. Twelve games represents 18% of a 66 game season. That's a decent sample. Here are some ugly numbers: Have two fewer wins than the Cavaliers One more win than New Orleans Are one...

After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value. Starters Paul Pierce: Until he gets himself into game shape, his value will continue to drop.  I'm not giving up on him now, but I AM saying that the short term prognosis is negative.  I'm optimistic about him turning it around in the long term, but I'...

Thunder 97, Celtics 88: The dive for five

Via Celtics Town  |  January 17, 2012
It was another close loss, another mile during which the Celtics started by crawling for the first lap and never could pass the leaders. The Celtics fought and scrapped and finally rebounded the basketball, and there were moments Doc Rivers would like to see repeated, like when Mickael Pietrus went on a late shooting spree to help keep Boston in the game. But Thabo Sefolosha and...

Your Morning Dump... Where it's KG's fault

Via Red's Army  |  January 17, 2012
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. And that, in a nutshell, is the story behind the 2011-12 Celtics. Garnett, the linchpin of one of the best defensive teams in NBA history over the past four seasons, can't get off the ground, and it&...

Boston Celtics Rajon Rondo Needs To Avoid Weak Start.

Via Rant Sports  |  January 16, 2012
The Boston Celtics are in the midst of their first four game losing streak during the new “Big Three Era”. There are many issues for this slump. However, the largest issue is the team is struggling on the offensive end big time. In the games like the Chicago Bulls game on Friday, the Celtics got off to awful starts. The ridiculously slow starts off set the periods that...

The Beast is Back, our Hopes still Not

Via Celtics Life  |  January 15, 2012
Last time Kendrick Perkins met Kevin Garnett and the rest of the Celtics team on the court we were a serious contender. We had beaten the Lakers, the Heat and were having quite a successful season. The problem then was who would be the starting center for us. We had Shaq, Jermaine, Semih and Perkins. We had been beaten by the Lakers in the previous Finals because of the lack of...

Andy FlintLet me start by saying that I was drawn to this showdown based on the defenses of these two teams. And because both of these squads won an NBA championship.
