10 takeaways from Boston breaking Toronto’s defensive shell

#1 – Queta generated 19 points through screens Neemias Queta might be the best screener in the NBA at the moment.

Raptors recover from rough first half, not enough to overcome Celtics

A lot can change game to game in an NBA season. For the Toronto Raptors, there was a bit of a pattern over the weekend. It started when they played the LA Lakers on Thursday night, losing by a buzzer-beater shot assisted by LeBron James. It wasn’t necessarily a bad loss, but after the game, […]

To Trade or Not to Trade: Jerami Grant

Over the past few seasons, two names have been at the top of the fan wishlist for the Portland Trail Blazers to trade: Anfernee Simons and Jerami Grant.

Preview: Toronto Raptors vs. Boston Celtics

Already this season the Toronto Raptors have seen some hills and valleys. A 9-game winning streak has turned into dropping 4 of the last 5 games and scoring a season-low in their most recent outing against Charlotte.

That was better. A game after losing by 45 to the Boston Celtics, the Wizards fell behind by as much as 20 in the first half, erased that entire deficit to tie the game early in the fourth quarter, and then got bum rushed over the final 10 minutes to lose by 15. Yes, this […]

Comments from the Other Side - Lakers 12/5/25

 A win against the Lakers is always a good win.  It's funny that they were whining about JJ not playing Vanderbilt when probably if he did, they would have trashed him like they did everyone else who did play.  It would seem that LeBron isn't all that popular with Lakers fans either.  Still so many comments about Jaylen's hairline.  Lakers fans are really so bad trashing every player on their team.  My favorites are in bold.  What are yours?   The B...

10 takeaways as Jaylen Brown, Jordan Walsh power Celtics past Lakers

Back in mid-November, the Celtics found themselves sitting with a 5-7 record – still searching for consistency, struggling to close out tight games and trying to find their identity.

Player Grades: Lakers vs. Celtics

Well, that was a basketball game. The shorthanded Lakers didn’t have a chance at all at beating the Celtics. Boston started red-hot from 3-point range and ended the game hitting 24 from beyond the arc. Los Angeles appeared exhausted and unable to put up much of a fight. Head coach JJ Redick cleared his bench […]

Celtics cruise past shorthanded Lakers, 126-105, to win 4th straight

With Jayson Tatum, LeBron James, Luka Doncic and Marcus Smart all sidelined, this watered-down version of Celtics-Lakers didn’t carry quite the same weight as many others over the years. But, Jaylen Brown, Derrick White, Jordan Walsh and Payton Pritchard ensured Celtics fans still got their money’s worth. Brown led the way with 30 points, 8 […]

Shorthanded Lakers blown out by Celtics

The Lakers couldn’t find enough firepower to stop the Boston Celtics, losing 126-105, on Friday night.  LA had a rough start offensively, allowing the Celtics to take an early eight-point lead. Derrick White drained two quick 3-pointers. At the 6:39 mark, the Lakers were still in single digits with just seven points scored.  Los Angeles […]

LeBron James out vs. Celtics due to sciatica

UPDATE: The Lakers made it official ruling LeBron James out against the Celtics due to right sciatica and left joint arthritis. This will make beating Boston that much harder, but given that LeBron is the oldest player in the NBA, it makes sense for him not to push it and play both games in back-to-back matchups. […]
