Comments from the Other Side - Nuggets 2/25/26

 This loss was a confluence of playing at altitude in the 3rd game in 4 nights and back to back games along with it being the final game of a road trip.  Can't be too upset.  Their shots were flat and they just didn't have enough in the tank to beat the Nuggets.  For all their complaints about Jokic, he had 30 points, 12 rebounds and 6 assists.  They don't deserve him.   Once again I love how many Celtics fans that were there.   My favorites are in ...

10 takeaways from the Celtics looking a step behind in Denver

#1 – A second behind Sometimes in life, you feel like you’re a step behind. Nothing big, but yet, it creates a difference between where you should be and where you are, and this small difference has consequences. Well, that’s how it felt looking at the Celtics’ off-ball defense last night. This first bucket from […]

Ron Harper Jr. brought the energy against Phoenix

On the front-half of a back-to-back, the Boston Celtics faced off against a short-handed Phoenix Suns team, securing a commanding 97-81 victory. The Celtics weren’t at full-strength themselves, though, Jaylen Brown missing the game with a knee contusion. It was a night where the offense was dragging, but the defense picked up all the slack. […]

Jayson Tatum’s return to the court is getting closer. According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the Celtics star has progressed to full 5-on-5 scrimmage work in recent practices, marking a significant step in his recovery from a torn Achilles.

Three questions as Celtics wrap up road trip in Denver

Can the Celtics keep the momentum? The Boston Celtics have played three games since the All-Star break and won all three by double digits. A West Coast road trip is never easy. There’s the time change, the altitude in Denver, the constant travel and the quick recovery before the next tipoff. However, Boston has made […]

Comments from the Other Side - Suns 2/24/25

 The Celtics didn't play all that well for much of the game but they upped their defense in the second half and pulled it out.  It never ceases to amaze me how quickly fans turn against their own team and players.  Another fan base that doesn't like their coach.  Once again,  I love how many Celtics fans there are in arenas on the road.   The comment about it being all Celtics free throws when they had only taken 8 at the time.  Sometimes I think fans do...

10 takeaways from the Celtics’ identity win over the Suns

#1 – Two underdogs with similarities When the season started, rare were those who expected the Phoenix Suns and the Celtics to be competing for playoff spots in their respective conferences. The franchise from Arizona traded their superstar Kevin Durant and had to let Bradley Beal go to rebuild a team around Devin Booker and […]

Neemias Queta is already utilizing Nikola Vučević by “just picking his brain”

When the Boston Celtics acquired Nikola Vučević at February’s NBA trade deadline, it gave them options. Adding Vučević provided Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla the flexibility to lean on the two-time All-Star, roll with a double-big lineup, or bring him off the bench behind Neemias Queta — the plan Boston has used to acclimate Vooch. But […]

Formula won and Mazzulla ball re-defined

Nothing really jumps off the page with a quick glance at the box score of the Celtics’ total eclipse of the Suns. The team shot just 40% from the field, including a dismal 13-of-47 from beyond the arc. They shot just nine free throws, with Payton Pritchard making all four of his trips after hitting […]

The Lakers can’t find offensive rhythm

LOS ANGELES — While the Lakers have their big three of LeBron James, Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves healthy and available, it hasn’t been smooth sailing. After the team’s loss against the Celtics on Sunday, Lakers head coach JJ Redick said they were “awful” offensively. In their encore on Tuesday, LA had another poor performance, […]

1 moment in Celtics’ win over Suns perfectly captures a magical season

PHOENIX —  Late in the third quarter of the Celtics 97-81 win over the Phoenix Suns, Payton Pritchard turned the ball over. Suns two-way player Jamaree Bouyea dribbled furiously down the court, while Baylor Scheiermman stayed in front of him, keeping his arms raised, but avoiding any contact. Ron Harper Jr, amid his second-ever NBA […]
