Paul Pierce was fined $25,000 for the gesture that you can see him make to Al Horford at the 30-second mark of the video above. It occurred during game three of their first-round series with Atlanta. Kurt Streeter of the LA Times threw down his take yesterday. After speaking with him, he has agreed   more...

After losing 3 games on the road to the Atlanta Hawks and having their character questioned as that series went to 7 games, most expected the Celtics to learn from their mistakes and come out strong in this game to finally get a road win. But, it was more of the same as the Celtics' defense once   more...

When it comes to small forwards, LeBron James is king, with Carmelo Anthony right behind him. He confirmed that he's 6'9 and 260 pounds, yet he's fast and athletic. He had an MVP caliber regular season with 30 PPG, 7.9 RPG, 7.2 APG 1.8 SPG and 1.1 BPG. Unguardable 1-on-1, LeBron is only 23 years   more...

The Celtics second unit worked well together throughout the regular season; they were a collection of energy players and team players who above all spread the floor, allowing Paul Pierce- who usually stayed in the lineup with them- plenty of room to create. And both Brian Scalabrine and James   more...

I'm once again stunned. How did this happen? Lets start with the fourth quarter.By double teaming Joe Johnson every time down the floor, he was able to set up all his teammates for open looks all game long. That led to a huge run in the fourth that put Boston on its heals and gave the Hawks the   more...

The Celtics made a statement in this game as they won by 34 points, 99-65. The Hawks were never in this game as the Celtics bolted out to a 27-16 first quarter lead behind the superior play of Kendrick Perkins. He set the tone for the team right from the beginning, crashing the boards, blocking   more...

Good perimeter shooting? Check. Solid defensive gameplan? Check. Limited turnovers? Check. The Cavs did all the right things in Game 3 that they didn't do in the first two games at Boston. The result was a 108-84 blowout win that made it a series again. But it's going to have to continue if the   more...

Before the game, no one felt that Pierce, Ray Allen and LeBron would all shoot sa poorly as they did in game one and they were partly right. Ray Allen and Paul Pierce bounced back with good games while LeBron played almost as poorly as he did in the first game. Pierce ended the game with 19 points   more...

This Paul Pierce "menacing" gesture thing was blown way out of proportion. Danny Ainge said they will appeal and Paul issued this statement before yesterdays game.Now in today's Herald is this NIFTY LITTLE PHOTO OF MAYOR MENINO from 2005!

Kevin Garnett has come into Boston and turned the team around, just as he promised he would after that blockbuster trade last season. With he and Ray Allen joining Paul Pierce, the Cetics finished the regular season with the NBA's best record and are in the playoffs for the first time in several   more...

...it looks like we're going to get at least one Oscar-worthy performance from LeBron per game. LBJ%20hurt.jpgTonight it happened on a flagrant foul on Posey. LeBron was driving, Posey reached out to stop him -- obviously going for the foul, but he went for the ball -- LeBron happened to drop his   more...

Immediately following tonight's game, Cheryl Miller interviewed Kevin Garnett. They talked about getting back to playing "Celtics Basketball", and what that meant. Mainly, KG said (and I'm paraphrasing), that it meant playing unselfishly, giving yourself on both ends of the court and keeping your   more...
