Video: Boston Celtics 2012-2013 Bloopers and Funny Moments

I was hard pressed to find a lot of funny moments for the Boston Celtics' blooper reel this season without our past team clowns like Big Baby, Nate Robinson, Shaq, and Mickael Pietrus. But there were a fair share of silly moments that included both Celtics newcomers and vets. This year's video includes appearances from NBA vets like Paul Pierce nearly losing his shorts while...

Your Morning Dump… Where borders will not restrain Danny Ainge’s PG search

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. “All three of them are real blows to us,” said Ainge. “First of all, we lose our star player and then Jared and then Barbosa.

Celtics Jason Terry and Dionte Christmas lose to girls! (Video)

SantosAs a Net fan, there is nothing that makes me happier than this video. Newly acquired guard Jason Terry, and rookie Dionte Christmas decided to take on a group of girls in a pick-up game. Granted, its five girls against two Celtics, but still, watching Celtics lose to girls is still watching Celtics lose to girls, which is exactly what happened. My favorite part of this video...

Figures, I leave the computer for 30 minutes and the Celtics sign a veteran point guard. We all knew that a veteran was coming after Dionte Christmas and Jamar Smith were waived yesterday. I had a feeling that they already had the player in place that they were going to sign or they wouldn't have cut them now. The Celtics added veteran combo guard Leandro Barbosa to the...
