celtics afterthoughts: blazin a trail to nowhere

Celtics @ Trailblazers 86-91
For the love of James Posey and all that is holy. The Celtics got completely manhandled last night by the Blazers. Yes, I know there was that whole confuzzling issue with the Blazers getting to keep a basket that shouldn’t have counted (too many players on the court), but that wasn’t the [...]

celtics afterthoughts: don’t call it a comeback

Celtics @ Kings 108-63
What a serious ass kicking. It hardly seemed fair. 45 points? Really? I can’t believe I stayed up and watched the whole thing. Leave it to the Celtics. Lose 2 in a row and then come back like an angry bear mauling the first poor bastard with the guts to poke it [...]

video: brady come back

Favorite line: “I’m so desperate now, I even drafted… Satan Manning.” (Haha!)
The Pats blanked the Bills today, 13-0 and still missed the playoffs. My sister informed me that I was going to “have to” root for the Jets today and her boyfriend Brett Favre. Mmm yeah. No. That was not going to happen. No way, [...]

celtics afterthoughts: hey, chicken little

Celtics @ Warriors 89-99
Well now, that was not a fun game to watch (unless you’re a GSW fan). I wasn’t surprised by the outcome. I didn’t think the team looked “right” from the jump. They had a lead and I did assume they’d win, but when things went sour, it wasn’t entirely shocking. But, to [...]

celtics afterthoughts: coal in my stocking

Celtics @ Lakers 83-92
Gar. That didn’t go the way I wanted it to. Maybe I’m stubborn, but I still think I’m right about the Lakers. They’re much better at times than last season, but I still think they’re missing something. Although, I will be happy to admit that I underestimated them some. If they win [...]

celtics afterthoughts: run forrest run!

Celtics v. 76ers 110-91
Wow, those 76ers sure can run. Especially without Elton Brand. For a little while, early in the game, I thought the fast break transition game was going to be a problem. Silly me. The C’s broke away in the 2nd half and put this one away early and easily. The [other] love [...]

celtics afterthoughts: tommy issues a bounty

Celtics v. Knicks 124-105
Run ‘n Gun is quasi comical to watch. Run down the court, jack up a 3-point shot. Rinse. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. I’m not saying it’s a bad game plan for the Knicks – because it’s certainly helped them win more games – but it’s still amusing to watch sometimes. Q-Rich can play. [...]

celtics afterthoughts: barn burner in hotlanta

Celtics @ Hawks 88-85
16 in a row, baby! I hate the Hawks. More than I hate the Giants, but not quite as much as I hate the Yankees. It isn’t even rational probably, but it is what it is. This game was not fun to watch in any way at all. The Celtics missed almost [...]

celtics afterthoughts: utah plays defense

Celtics v. Jazz 100-91
I felt like this was the closest game I’ve seen all year (not score-wise, opponent-wise). Then again, I didn’t really watch either game that they lost this year, so it probably wasn’t. However, Utah’s defense was pretty impressive. Rondo had another great game (which is a nice trend) and bested Deron Williams. They [...]

celtics afterthoughts: the love of my life returns

Celtics v. Hornets 94-82
Oh James Posey, how I love thee…

Oh and the Celtics extended their winning streak to 14. YES!
Celtics @ Wizards 122-88
Blowout. On national television no less. I wonder how much better the Wizards will be when the Hibachi returns?
