Jared Sullinger Rehab Update
When the draft workouts started last year, Jared Sullinger was considered a definite lottery pick, most likely in the top 10, with some people putting him as high as #5. Then came the medical red flag. He had a bulging disc in his back and that scared most of the GM's off. But Danny Ainge has never been afraid to take a chance and when Jared was still available...
Jared Sullinger updates his rehab, says he played on one leg last year due to injury
It's been three and a half months since Jared Sullinger underwent season ending surgery for a lumbar disc issue in his back, and the soon to be 2nd year forward is progressing in his rehab.
ESPN Boston's Chris Forsberg caught up with Sully at a charity event, and among other things he discussed the notion that back troubles will continue to bother him. He says that's...
A Look Back at My NBA Preview - How Horrible Was I?
Wolves get lucky #9 in this year's draft.
In honor of the Timberwolves not getting screwed (although not improving) in the NBA lottery, I thought I'd do an end of season recap. Prior to the NBA season I picked the over under for each team with a brief team preview. I didn't place any real money on these plays mostly because I hate waiting seven months for them to...

Red flag.
Those two words might as well be tattooed onto Jared Sullinger’s forehead.

Photo Gallery:The 2012-13 Boston Celtics
Greetings my fellow Celtics fans. This past season was definitely one of extreme highs and lows for the Boston Celtics. After losing starting point guard Rajon Rondo to a torn ACL, the team went on an inspiring 7 game winning streak. But the Basketball Gods continued to be unkind to Boston, as rookie Jared Sullinger and key reserve Leandro Barbosa were also lost for the year due...
Celtics' Summer League Team Will Not Feature Bradley, Sullinger
According Gary Washburn of the Boston Globe, the Celtics will send a Summer League team to Orlando that will not feature two of Boston's most promising young prospects: Avery Bradley and Jared Sullinger. Both Avery Bradley and Jared Sullinger are expected to take the time off to rest, Bradley for the wear-and-tear of this past season and Sullinger to recover from the back surgery...
When It Comes to the Draft, No One Has a Clue
I spent much of the day watching the draft combine. The Celtics have just one pick in this draft, barring Danny making a trade or buying another pick, as he did when the Celtics nabbed Rondo. That 16th pick is the Celtics highest since KG joined the team. Danny's draft history in those 5 years has been mixed. Last year, he got a player who showed a great deal of promise...
A Few Summer League Notes
It's awhile until Summer League starts but without the playoffs for the Celtics, there isn't a lot else to think about. Last year, with 3 new rookies, the Celtics took in both Orlando and Vegas, but they have announced that they will be going to just the Orlando Summer League this year.
Jared Sullinger has little to prove and so would be best served by continuing...
Boston Celtics: Season Review and Awards
Boston Celtics: Season Review and Awards
By Mike Elworth: Owner
Record: 42-40- 7th in East- Lost in First Round to New York
Review: Once Rajon Rondo went down with an ACL injury their season was over. They had a nice run mid-season, but the talent was simply not there for them to be anything more than any easy first round foe for a better team. They played well against the Knicks...
The Boston Celtics, the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Race to Return to Glory
The Celtics and Lakers are down once again. But are they out? The cities of Boston and Los Angeles are home to the two preeminent franchises in the National Basketball Association. Their names are forever linked with each other, and are forever symmetrical with professional basketball. The Celtics and Lakers. The Lakers and Celtics. However, for the first time in 20 years, both...
Suns Hire Ryan McDonough, Key in Celtics’ Player Evaluation for Last Decade, as General Manager
From Rajon Rondo and Glen Davis to Avery Bradley and Jared Sullinger, the Celtics had a key player behind the scenes aiding their player evaluation efforts.
That man, Ryan McDonough, will no longer be working toward bringing an 18th championship banner to Boston. The 33-year-old was named general manager of the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday, making the Hingham, Mass., native one of the...
R for reloading, not rebuilding
Following the elimination of our Boston Celtics last Friday you may have found your TL in twitter filled with articles of the main reporters out there citing the likeliness of the end of the Garnett era in Boston. That, coupled with the logical sadness after falling to the Knicks may have colored your basketball dreams in black gloom.
First, and before entering into an analysis...
Danny Ainge Takes Full Responsibility for Celtics' Loss
After the Celtics failed to comeback and win Game 6 last night, Danny Ainge owned up for his teams failures.
“I take full responsibility for our team not being as good as New York. That is not Doc’s fault, and that is not KG’s fault or Paul Pierce’s fault or Rajon Rondo’s fault."
Before the regular season began, Danny Ainge appeared to have pulled off a series of...
Celtics Assistant GM Could Be Heading to Phoenix
Celtics Assistant General Manager Ryan McDonough has been a master of advanced scouting over the past decade, finding draft steals such as Kendrick Perkins (27th pick), Tony Allen (25th), Rajon Rondo (21st), Glen Davis (35th), Avery Bradley (22nd), and Jared Sullinger (21st). Though a GM's job is never entirely safe in professional sports, Danny Ainge doesn't appear to be...

Marcus Smart Latest Player to Magically Become Better After Shift in Draft Situation
Perhaps you are familiar with Jared Sullinger. He was projected as a top-three draft pick. Then the NBA issued a red flag pertaining to a back ailment, and lottery teams tripped over themselves running away from the Ohio State big man in terror. He fell to the Celtics at pick No. 20 and turned out to be a mighty fine pro player, until said back issues ended his season in February...

Jeff Green Helps Celtics Work Past Injuries to Rajon Rondo, Jared Sullinger, Leandro Barbosa
The Boston Celtics have thrived amid adversity this season, relying on the one-two punch of veterans Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce to beat the prevailing NBA odds and prove that their window of opportunity for another championship hasn’t closed just yet. But they haven’t been doing it alone — 26-year-old Jeff Green has been a big part of their success lately.
While season-ending...
