The Celtics need to put out a wanted poster to try to find their defense. It has been missing for the past two games. After allowing the Wolves to shoot 52% from the floor, they allowed the Suns to shoot 50% from the field and 54% from beyond the arc. The Celtics need to get back...

These comments are definitely more fun to gather when the Celtics are playing well and especially when they win. Notice in the middle that one poster says that the Suns would win by 7 and that he has a source. There were a lot of questionable calls in this game. Makes you wonder...

The Celtics are back, healthy, and on a mission. Rasheed looks like he has been playing with them for years. I don't see how this ends well.
Yea we no chance whatsoever of winning this game. Maybe it will be a bit closer than I think because the Celtics are looking past...

The Celtics team I watched play the Wolves last night didn't look in the least like the team that won the previous 5. They were flat on offense, shooting an anemic 44% from the floor and 26% from beyond the arc. And even worse, the team that hopes to become the best defensive...

For the most part, Philly fans weren't expecting a win in this game but they were hoping for a competitive game. Unfortunately, their team didn't comply and it ended up another Celtic blowout. It amazes me when fans bash their own team instead of realizing that the Celtics...

Any long time Celtics fan has to love Kevin McHale. He is one of the greatest power forwards of all time. I don't know if anyone will ever have the moves he had. And, he has a great sense of humor. I have a feeling he is going to do a great job as an analyst. The LA Times reports...

Can't say that I'm looking forward to this game. Celts are 3-0, Hornets at 1-1. Hornets still trying to jell as a team with 2 new starters in the lineup and six new players overall.
Rondo vs CP3 should be a very good matchup.
Somebody should show cp3 those comments...
