The Celtics begin their Vegas Summer League games today at 4:00 PM ET vs the Atlanta Hawks. The Celtics are coming off of an impressive 4-1 showing in Orlando and will look to improve on that success with games against the Hawks, Bulls, Bucks, and the Clippers. There are 17 other teams playing in Vegas that the Celtics won't face including the Hornets, Heat, Knicks and Lakers. Austin Rivers will have to wait for his first competition vs his Dad's Celtics.
The Celtics 5 games will be televised, as follows:
Monday, July 16 vs ATL 4:00 PM ET NBA-TV
Wednesday, July 18 vs CHI at 12:00 PM ET NBA-TV
Thursday, July 19 vs SAC at 6:30 PM ET CSNNE
Friday, July 20 vs SAC at 3:00 AM ET NBA-TV
Saturday, July 21 vs MIL at 10:30 PM ET NBA-TV
Sunday, July 22 vs LAC at 6:00 PM ET NBA-TV and CSNNE
It's nice to see that CSNNE will be televising 2 of the games. I hope we get to see Mike and Tommy. I sure miss those two. It will also help me avoid getting up at 2:00 AM to watc...

Brandon Bass did not allow himself to be starstruck for long after joining the Celtics last season. He spent the first day in slight awe every time Paul Pierce brought up the ball or Ray Allen drained a jump shot, but by the second day, Bass had shed his wonderment. Still, he never lost his admiration for Kevin Garnett and the startling work ethic the 17-year veteran displayed during...

With Shooting Guard Avery Bradley in danger of missing some time to start the season as he recovers from 2 shoulder surgeries, the Celtics will need someone to emerge to take some minutes in a 3-guard...
