Latest news and updates about the Celtics
Just a few weeks back, Anfernee Simons’ fit felt clunky. His efficiency was solid, but it hadn’t translated into consistently impactful minutes. Lately, he’s begun to settle into a clearer niche, and the Celtics’ offense is humming. The issue wasn’t Simons’ ability to score, but the process was off and in some ways his style […]

The Celtics are not the first team to guard San Antonio’s Victor Wembanyama small, yet the mere concept is an experiment in star-stopping that is equal parts fascinating, and a little crazy. There is no right way to guard a 7-foot-4 three-level scorer, and if there was nobody has unraveled the mystery, but on Saturday […]

The Celtics could be without Jaylen Brown when they begin a four-game road trip against the Indiana Pacers on Monday night. Brown is listed as doubtful to play due to low back spasm after playing 43 minutes — and the entire second half — in Saturday’s 100-95 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. If he […]

One night, in the early 1980s, as he had done many times before, my father climbed out of his window and into the evening air. Pedaling quietly through a landscape of asphalt and the warm sodium yellow of streetlamps, his bicycle carved its way past the darkened silhouettes of neighborhood domesticity until he’d arrived at […]

Coming off a gritty win over the Los Angeles Lakers, the Spurs traveled to Boston to face the Celtics. Devin Vassell would remain out with an adductor injury. Just like the Lakers game, this game turned out to be a brick competition mixed in with solid defense. Both teams shot 41% and under from the […]

I think the 3 games in 4 nights caught up to them at the end. Their shots were short. 4 free throws for the Celtics is rather telling. Jaylen Brown was very heated about the lack of calls after the game. I can relate to the fans who hate seeing White on the Celtics. I hurt every time I see Marcus Smart on the Lakers. They were quite complementary of the Celtics. It's funny how they trash their own players until they do something good and then it'...

BOSTON — Baylor Scheierman only knows one way: to play with an edge. To blow kisses after made baskets. To talk trash. He just hasn’t always had the opportunity to show it. But, on Saturday, with the Celtics hosting the San Antonio Spurs in a primetime matchup between two of the NBA’s top teams, Scheierman […]

#1 – Can’t get to the line if you don’t attack the rim Let’s get the referee topic out of the way before we dig in. The Celtics’ low number of free throws last night, and overall this season, isn’t caused by a conspiracy against Boston. Free-throw volume is highly correlated with rim pressure. However, […]

BOSTON — San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama was a 7-foot-4 problem the Boston Celtics couldn’t solve, no matter the adjustment. “He’s really good at what he does,” Derrick White admitted after Boston’s 100-95 loss. “Just the way he protects the paint and still can get out to the corner is special. You have to […]

The Spurs did not play well in their visit to the surprising Celtics, but managed to escape Boston with an unlikely win. Sometimes, having the best player on the floor is all it takes, and Victor Wembanyama proved it by dominating on both ends to lead San Antonio to an unexpected 100-95 victory in what […]

With the two #2 seeds in their respective conferences on the parquet, TD Garden had a playoff feel with the Spurs taking the potential Finals preview 100-95 over the Celtics. In the first half, the Celtics played their brand of basketball: low turnovers with just 5, hot shooting from behind the arc (8-of-19) that included […]

Good win by the Celtics. I love how worried they are about Pritchard, even before the game started. And the guy who wants to sign him just so they don't have to play against him any more cracked me up. Also the comments about Joe Mazzulla not knowing how to have fun and making the Celtics run suicides for letting it get so close were funny. I don't know why but the picture of the dog attacking the cabbage made me laugh. My favorites are in bold. What are you...
