It may not be the prettiest thing in the NBA, but how many times do you get the chance to watch a life-size stuffed animal (stuffed with a person of course) dunking a basketball...plus my kids are watching me work and really liked this clip...

Why Jeff Green has been inefficient in the post (and how to fix it)
Has Boston been using Jeff Green correctly in the post?One of the most encouraging developments we’ve seen as Boston continues to reel off impressive victories against playoff teams has been the offensive progression of Jeff Green. The Celtics have clearly told Green to look for his own shot as often as possible, and he has obliged, scoring 1.14 points per possession in spot-up...
Video: Jeff Green's reverse dunk twin pack this weekend
The baseline reverse dunk is sort of becoming Jeff Green's thing of late. He had almost identical dunks the past two games and here they are for your viewing pleasure courtesy of our friend OfficialCelticsHD. Green struggled in his first return to OKC shooting only 2-11. I'm sure he'd trade this dunk for some more made shots and a victory vs. his former teammates.
Celtics fend off Hawks in OT, 107-102
Jeff Green rattled in a huge three pointer, then made a key steal in overtime as Boston was able to slip past Atlanta tonight, 107-102. Trailing 98-96 with 2:38 to go in OT, Green's corner 3 landed short, bounced high in the air, rolled around the rim a couple times, and fell through. Soon after Green made strip on Josh Smith in a tie game, leading to a three from Jason Terry...
Thunder Fans Should Celebrate Uncle Jeff’s Return
Oklahoma City Thunder’s original, Jeff Green, travels with his Boston Celtics to play the Thunder on Sunday. It’ll be a nationally televised game on ABC.

Cold as ice: Oklahoma City Thunder beat Boston Celtics 91-79
Jeff Green's return to Oklahoma City was less than stellar.The worst part about this afternoon’s loss was the defense.I don’t mean that the defense was bad. It was fantastic. Kevin Durant shot just 6-16 from the field. Russell Westbrook managed just 11 field goal attempts. The Thunder overall were 44% from the field and 25% from 3-point range. The Celtics were on point throughout...
Celtics-Thunder Preview
Although Jeff Green has gone through some trying times since arriving in Boston, he appears to be in a very good place ahead of his return to Oklahoma City.
The Celtics are also feeling great following five straight victories, but they'll face a major challenge keeping that run going Sunday against a Thunder team that's within striking distance of the top spot in the Western...
Recap: Celtics hold on for 107-102 OT win at the Garden
Sorry for such a late recap folks. Our staff are tied-up tonight, either travelling for Sunday’s big bash, or getting things prepared for it. I was actually at the Garden and just got to work myself, but wanted to log-on real quick & give you all a place to talk/comment on/be excited about tonight’s win. I have not seen any of the highlights, with the exception of a few YouTube...
Your Morning Dump..Where All Is Not Lost
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.
We could harp on the bad — and there was plenty of it, like the 19 turnovers, the poor shot selection, Jeff Green’s dud in his first trip back to Oklahoma City, Kevin Garnett’s off shooting night and a poor...

Celtics Must Balance Potential Matchup With Miami With Home-Court Advantage As Playoff Race Heats Up (Podcast)
After searching for a rhythm without Rajon Rondo, it appears that the Celtics have finally found it.
The Green Team seems to have found their way after wandering for most of this season, stuck worrying about whether or not general manager Danny Ainge would blow it all up at the trade deadline. He didn’t, and the Celtics responded.
With Jeff Green‘s dramatic game-winner still...
Celtics Don't Give Up, Lose to Thunder
