doc should make the team watch this for inspiration

A lot of people think the Celtics are done. Not just done — done, done. I don’t believe it. I think they’re just bored with the regular season, don’t get up for bad teams and let bad offense become piss-poor defense — all, by definition, attitude problems that exist between the ears. Doc needs to [...]

have you seen this man?

Last seen: On the jumbotron at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts.
Responds to: “Gino”, winning score at the two minute mark, Bee Gees.
Reward: If found by the playoffs, I will grant the finder one crisp benjamin dollar bill. $

Hey Santa – I’d like another one of these for Christmas, ok?

By the way, if this celtsfanjay guy ever decides to pull this video off of YouTube, I’ll cry. I love it that damn much. I have yet to make it very far past the 2:20 mark without welling up. GO CELTICS!

gino & leon – two of my favorite things

Sigh. Just stumbled onto this on YouTube and it made me happy …and sad. Please to enjoy.

 Holy emo, I promise I’ll stop talking about Leon… Someday.
ps. I’m calling bullshit on Doc not knowing about the Gino dance.

Playoffs Game 2
Celtics v. Magic 112-94
The Good

Eddie House scored a career playoff high of 31 points.
Rajon Rondo earned another triple double (15 pts, 18 assts, 11 rebs) and threw down a pretty nifty slam dunk to boot.
Doc Rivers had high praise for Brian Scalabrine after the game and said that he was surprised Scal was even able to [...]

celtics afterthoughts: found the defense

Playoffs Game 3
Celtics @ Bulls 107-86
I was so not expecting the game that I saw tonight. I figured either Rose/Gordon would go off offensively or Thomas/Noah would throw another block party and it would be another close game. How wrong I was. This was a blowout and got away from the Bulls quickly and they [...]

celtics afterthoughts: kg, our savior

Disclaimer: About half-way through writing this post, my HD cable box decided to $h*t the bed. I was so rattled, that it’s entirely possible that one or more thoughts below is less thought out than it would normally be. Lol. So if I said anything more inane than usual, don’t blame me. Blame COMCAST. My [...]

memory lane always cheers me up

Ok, there’s been a lot of bad breaks going our way lately and that sucks… but if you’re a Celtics fan and you want to turn that frown upside down, just enjoy this YouTube video with me. Damn, if I don’t get choked up every time right around the 2:20 mark.

celtics afterthoughts: you just beat two florida teams, what are you going to do? i’m going to disneyworld!

Celtics @ Magic 90-80
From ESPN.com: The Orlando Magic had the Eastern Conference’s best record coming in but dropped to third behind Boston and Cleveland with Thursday’s loss.
Yes! I wasn’t drinking the kool-aid on the Magic like many people, so this game didn’t surprise me. I’ve been watching them for a few years now and though [...]

celtics afterthoughts: suddenly the underdog

Celtics v. Suns 104-87
This game got out of control fast. The Celtics were firing on all cylinders, which was good to see. I wish I could say that I’m a diehard enough fan that I watched every second of this game with unwavering intensity, but that would be a lie. As soon as it became [...]
