Game Thread: Knicks at Celtics, Dec. 2, 2025

The Knicks head to Boston riding a four-game streak, while the Celts continue to scrap without Jayson Tatum thanks to Jaylen Brown’s scoring and Payton Pritchard’s occasional hot hand. Boston fires up huge shot volumes, but New York arrives with the stronger rebounding, a steadier offense, and better two-way balance. As long as this doesn’t […]

Breaking down Mikal Bridges’ impressive defensive season

Mikal Bridges’ inaugural season as a member of the New York Knicks was disappointing in a lot of different ways.

But the overwhelming majority […]

Playing perfect against the Cavaliers

Let’s see if I understand Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity. Basically, everything is relative to the observer. For example, if you check the box score of the Celtics 117-115 nailbiter in Cleveland, the teams clocked in at a 96.5 pace, meaning that each team had 96 possessions over the 48 minutes of game time. That’s […]

After 20 games, are the Celtics good? (staff roundtable)

Mark Aboyoun The Celtics are a good team — not great, not bad, just solid. Their performances so far have reflected that. When everyone is locked in, they can compete with anyone in the league. But when they’re not, they tend to drop games they should be winning. 20 games in, 11 wins, it’s fair […]

Jaylon Tyson said the right thing, but it needed to come from somebody else

Shortly after another aggravating Cleveland Cavaliers loss to the Boston Celtics 115-117 on Sunday. Jaylon Tyson came out guns blazing and was not hiding his true emotions. Tyson’s post-game comments hit the nail on the head. Early and often in the Cavaliers’ first 21 games, the team has looked sluggish and frankly lackadaisical. There were […]

Comments from the Other Side - Cavaliers 11/30/25

 Good game by the Celtics while playing back to back.  I loved the 3 and whiff comment.  I also love the stats on Queta.  He's better than most opponents think. I love Payton Pritchard!!   Another fan base where they hate their own team more than they do the Celtics.  Not knowing what to expect from the team could describe the Celtics as well.  But I love this team and would never trash them like the Cavs fans do theirs.  My favorites are in bold.&n...

Celtics leader Jaylen Brown went from scoring 41 points on Saturday to just 19 on Sunday, but it was the weekend-closing performance in Cleveland that reinforced what Boston already knew.

6 takeaways from Cavs 117-115 loss to Celtics: The same issues keep popping up

The Cleveland Cavaliers sleepwalked through the first 46 minutes of Sunday’s loss to the Boston Celtics. Two good minutes from the Cavs were almost enough to escape with a victory, but a questionable decision to have Donovan Mitchell inbound the ball with 0.6 seconds left in a two-point game instead of taking the potential game-winning […]
