Latest news and updates about the Celtics
NEW ORLEANS — Jaylen Brown grinned ear-to-ear as the final buzzer neared, the first Celtics win of the season just moments away. “It feels great to get the first one,” Brown said postgame, hardly supressing a smile. “Feels awesome, actually.” Brown is typically among the Celtics’ least expressive players postgame, regardless of the final score.

Three times, the Celtics fought and fell short of their first win of the 2025-26 season, with each loss defined by the same problem: an inability to rebound. On Monday night against the Pelicans, they turned to fourth-year forward Josh Minott for his first career NBA start. That decision paid off tremendously. Minott joined Neemias […]

After watching the Celtics fall to 0-3 on the season, I tweeted what I thought was a straightforward and fairly innocuous post Sunday evening. “It’s not time to panic, but it is time to officially be concerned about the Celtics.” Pretty tame, right?

The Boston Celtics’ early-season struggles continued last night, as they dropped their third straight game in a 119–113 loss to the Detroit Pistons. Boston entered the matchup ranked 29th in the league in defensive rebounding percentage (61.5%) and left at the bottom of the standings after allowing 18 offensive boards. The lack of control on […]

So much complaining about the officials and how they favor the Celtics. The refs have a funny way of favoring the Celtics by giving Detroit 36 free throws to 24 for the Celtics. If every Celtic gave the effort of Payton Pritchard on the boards, the Celtics would be a lot better. Shortest guy on the court led the team in rebounds. On to New Orleans and hopefully a win. My favorites are in bold. What are yours? This needs to be a win. Home opener, ...

Granted, their two opponents — Philadelphia and New York — have high postseason ambitions, but that’s beside the point. Against the 76ers, Boston blew a 13-point fourth-quarter lead.

They give out a Pulitzer Prize for Criticism, but to my knowledge, the award has never gone to a Celtics writer. Not sure why. Criticism isn’t inherently positive or negative, it’s just an analysis of the quality of things. And here in Boston, we have a long history of criticizing our team, and I personally […]
