    2024 Playoffs Western Conference First Round: (2) Denver Nuggets vs (7) LA Lakers

    Last night’s exciting playoff games were great for the league, conveniently now that the new tv rights deal is now open to all interested parties.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Where does Miami find points? Boston blanketed Herro, and played very aggressively through Bam screens. Miami has to get extremely hot from three to stay with the Celtics.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    Looks like Joe tightened up his rotation in the second half. IIRC, Hauser didn’t see the floor.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    The Heat without Butler, and even without the veteran wile of Lowry, simply aren’t a threat. Until Tatum started the fourth quarter trying to get his tenth assist by throwing the ball to the Heat Miami had to work like crazy to get a shot by anyone but Bam. They had one role player go caleb...

    2024 Playoffs Western Conference First Round: (2) Denver Nuggets vs (7) LA Lakers

    I’m in like Pop Lewis. Tough to watch the Nugs/Lakers series. It would be better for the Celtics for Denver to lose, but rooting for the Lakers isn’t something I can do.

    2023-2024 General NBA Season Thread

    When I had a place in South Beach two decades ago, the only people around the arena besides game goers were homeless sleeping on the sidewalks. There was almost no non-game traffic, and the crowd arrived late, and left early. The lower seating, which the annoying in game hype man called...

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    Mazzulla grew up in the era of the tragic 2003 Station night club fire in West Warwick RI, where 100 patrons perished, many stacked up like cordwood in the exits. He grew up in the municipality with the highest percentage of Italians anywhere not in Italy, so he must be aware of the history of...

    2023-2024 General NBA Season Thread

    Warriors eliminated. LeBron has to try to get through Denver in the first round. A good first night of post season basketball. Too bad both Philly and Miami can’t be eliminated in day two. I’d like to see Miami win, and Philly lose to either Chicago or Atlanta.

    Mike Gorman’s last game as voice of the Celtics.

    It just dawned on me that a good number of the members that post on the site were not even born when Mike Gorman became the Celtics television play-by-play job 43 years ago. I was a freshman in college when he began his long career, and it seems to me that he’s always been there when I followed...

    2023-24 Celtics

    63 wins is tied for third highest of all time by a Celtics team. Two of teams with more wins, the 66 win 2008 team and the 67 win 1986 teams won titles, and the 68 win team in 1973 lost in the ECF after a John Havlicek injury.

    2023-2024 Celtics Wins Poll

    Boston got to 60+ wins the way championship teams in the past got there, by winning over 90% of home games, and beating up on non-playoff teams (which now includes play-in teams) Boston is 44-6 against non playoff and play-in teams. They have lost only three home games.

    There has been a lot of talk about possible injury to Wemby and Chet in a long NBA season. Wemby has played 70 of 80 games, at 29.6 mpg. After missing an entire season due to a freak summer injury, Chet has played all 80 games at 29.7 mpg. With today’s year round training regimes, and with...

    Heat Culture 10-21 against non-play-in playoff teams this season, 34-15 against play-in teams and dregs. Boston 18-11 against non-play-in playoff teams. 44-6 against play-in teams and dregs

    Green Zinger Tea - Kristaps Porziņģis 2023-24

    Going to KP early in quarters during the playoffs will help Boston get into the bonus early (assuming Boston will ever draw a foul again after that ridiculous game in Milwaukee)

    Joe Mazzulla officially named head coach

    If Boston loses only one more game, Mazzulla would have won 75% of the games his first two seasons, an amazing accomplishment, something that Pat Riley couldn’t do with five and six HoFers in his first two seasons.
