With The Truth in the building, Celtics give honest perspective on loss to Pistons
Yeah, that was a stinker. Despite Paul George turning back the clock for 38 points, the Celtics were out-rebounded and lost the margin battle in the trenches, Jayson Tatum looked off, and Jaylen Brown looked great in a Sixers win over the Knicks on their Ring Night. After building a 22-point lead in their season […]
Mitchell Robinson had a strong reaction to his Celtics debut
BOSTON — Mitchell Robinson didn’t mince words at Celtics practice Thursday morning, less than 48 hours after his lackluster Celtics debut. In the Celtics’ 121-113 loss to the Detroit Pistons, Robinson tallied 4 points, 2 assists, 2 blocks, and 2 turnovers in 18 minutes. The normally prolific rebounder couldn’t make his impact on the glass, […]
Hauser-Queta lineup makes early case for starting five
The Boston Celtics trotted out a starting lineup of Derrick White, Jordan Walsh, Jayson Tatum, Paul George, and Mitchell Robinson in the team’s Opening Day loss — but it might not be the team’s best. In fact, its best might look more like last year’s starting squad, just with Paul George instead of Jaylen Brown. […]

Failure to rebound spells Celtics’ doom in season opener vs. Pistons
The Boston Celtics’ season opener against the Detroit Pistons started with nerves and excitement followed by confidence and joy, but ultimately resulted in sheer disappointment. The Celtics blew a 22-point second-half lead, falling 121-113. It was just one game out of 82 and after Boston’s longest offseason in 10 years, you take it with a […]
Old Habits: Takeaways From Celtics/Pistons
Not the start we all had in mind. Old habits die hard, and for the Boston Celtics, that habit is letting go of the rope once they’ve built themselves a comfortable lead. Two runs from the Detroit Pistons, one in the third and another 23-0 in the fourth, slammed the door on the Celtics and […]
Celtics’ loss to Pistons had one massive bright spot: ‘He was unbelievable’
DETROIT — If you didn’t know any better, you may have thought you were watching the Paul George of old. In his Celtics debut at Little Caeser Arena, George shot lights-out, hitting three after three while the Celtics’ bench rejoiced. Most of the night, the 36-year-old looked like the best player on the floor, carrying […]
Celtics had Pistons on the ropes. Then, they blew it: ‘We gotta do better’
For more than five of the last eight minutes, the Boston Celtics were held scoreless. Jayson Tatum tried to stop the bleeding with a layup off the glass, but missed and fell to the floor. On the other end, the Detroit Pistons rushed five-on-four, as former teammate Javonte Green drained a wide-open 3-pointer. Tatum, unable […]
It’s not so #DifferentHere after all without Jaylen Brown
Paul George’s heat check three with 8:32 to play in the third quarter of Tuesday’s season opener marked his third straight triple. More importantly, it gave the Celtics a commanding 72-50 lead over the Pistons in what was shaping up to be a tone-setting victory. Then… then it got worse. Detroit closed the game on […]
Jayson Tatum’s season debut was far from pristine, but there’s no reason to panic
Before Tuesday’s season-opening matchup with the Pistons, Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla told reporters that he doesn’t believe we have seen the best version of Jayson Tatum yet. Well, after a dreadful 6-for-23 shooting performance in a 121-113 loss, we still haven’t seen the best version of Tatum. But we did see a glimpse into what […]
Celtics collapse, lose season opener to Pistons 121-113
The Celtics led the Pistons by 22 in the 2nd half. Then the game flipped as the Celtics, very much like they did in the first round last year, collapsed and lost to the Pistons, 121-113. It was a struggle for Jayson Tatum who had just 13 points on 6/23 from the field. Meanwhile, Cade […]

What defines success for this year’s Celtics?
BOSTON — When the Celtics rotated their bench into the game against the 76ers in the preseason, Jayson Tatum stayed on the TD Garden parquet joined by Baylor Scheierman, Sam Hauser, Payton Pritchard and Neemias Queta — a lineup that could easily stand as Boston’s starters. While the regular rotation players sat out the preseason […]

Devin Carter diagnosed with mono after signing two-way deal
The Celtics officially converted Devin Carter to a two-way deal. While the team is excited that Carter is sticking around, he won’t be suiting up for a little while. Carter has mononucleosis, according to multiple reports Sunday. That explains the illness that has kept him out since the preseason opener. There’s no firm timeline for […]
