Troy Murphy Takes Ball to the Face (Video)
Troy Murphy has been kicking around the NBA for 10 years. He is a veteran to the league, but a rookie to the Lakers. In limited time this season, Murphy has averaged just over three rebounds and six assists per game. He’s clearly still getting used to the L.A. offense, which is totally understandable. Something tells me that last night’s game will inspire him to get caught...

Time to brew some Murphy
Some of our problems against the New York Knicks are related to the lack of rebounding and scoring production from the bench. Working with a short rotation of players in the playoffs, we have heavily relied on the abilities of Glen Davis to get the work done. In the first two games, he hasn't been able to be a threat on both ends of the floor. The lack of height in the middle...

Celtics Steal Murphy From Heat
The NBA trade deadline came and went last Thursday and while it was an event-filled day, teams continue to make moves via the waiver-wire after it.
One of those teams is the Boston Celtics, who had a win over the Miami Heat off the court and they hope that it will help them win on it if the two squads happen to meet up later on in the season.

An Opportunity for Troy Murphy?
With the injury to Nenad Krstic and the unclear return date of Shaq, this is an opportune time for Troy Murphy to return to the line-up for the in-need-of-frontcourt-players Celtics.
Troy has been out of the lineup since spraining his ankle in practice on or about March 24th. He has been slated to return in “early April”, and now would be as good a time as any to consider...

For those counting, his streak has now reached ten consecutive misses, and he has not made an in-game shot since January 7th.On that date, the Celtics played the Toronto Raptors — Luke Harangody led the Celtics in rebounds and chipped in 17 points for his only professional double...

On Troy Murphy’s disappointing year and uncertain future
When Troy Murphy dunked, I rubbed my eyes, shook my head, pinched myself, wondered where the hell his sudden explosiveness came from, and debated whether the refs should check Murphy’s shoes for Flubber. Murphy was once a double-double machine, if not a star than at least a well-known commodity and a proven threat. But he had fallen so far that after the few times he dunked in...

Boston Celtics Troy Murphy Is Struggling Now: Give Him Time And He Will Deliver

Since arriving in Boston, Troy Murphy is not exactly lighting the world on fire. Murphy did not play all that much this season due to the fact that one of the worst coaches in basketball (Yes, I am calling you out Avery Johnson) felt the need to let the talented big man ride the pine. This means the man is completely out of basketball playing shape. All...
