Allen’s 22 Helps Celtics Overcome Foul Disparity and Push Streak to 14

By ⋅ December 22, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

For almost three quarters, nothing was going the Boston Celtics’ way. The Philadelphia 76ers were playing a switching, active and stingy defense that confused and offset the Celtics offensive ball movement. Even when the Celtics got good looks at the basket, the ball always seemed to rim out at the last second, leading to under [...]

Sometimes, it’s better to be good than lucky. When you’re on an eight-game winning streak, it’s always better to be both. Going for their ninth straight win, the Celtics were in serious jeopardy of losing the streak late in their game against the Philadelphia 76ers when Andre Iguodala (14 points, 11 assists) hit a hook [...]

Fantasy Basketball Roundup: Week 6

By ⋅ December 7, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Oh no! I am facing a notorious streamer this week in one of my leagues. Since he started this strategy, he is has won two league championships in a row. Personally, I don’t like facing streamers (obviously), but hey, as long as the league is set up to let you get away with it, then [...]

Fantasy Basketball Roundup: Week 4

By ⋅ November 23, 2009 ⋅ 4 comments

Uh-oh, I committed a cardinal sin for any fantasy owner. I missed setting my lineups in one league this week, and as a result, I lost 5-4. Any serious fantasy sports player will tell you that the #1 rule is to never forget to set those lineups. Hey, I’m human baby, I make mistakes. More [...]

Celtics Beat 76ers Without KG and Ray Allen

By ⋅ April 15, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

The Celtics were without Kevin Garnett (out until the playoffs) and Ray Allen (serving a one-game suspension), and still managed to beat the slumping, yet playoff-bound Philadelphia 76ers Tuesday night 100-98.

Fantasy Basketball Review: Week 17 (2-16 – 2-22)

By ⋅ February 24, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

With just one month left in the regular fantasy season, you should start making a push for a playoff spot. If you are like me in one of my other leagues, you have no shot at making the playoffs. However, I will still be trying to the very end. I can’t stand it when someone [...]

The Celtics were lucky to pull this one off after some really sloppy play especially shown [...]

Fantasy Basketball Review: Week 12 (1-12 – 1-18)

By ⋅ January 20, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

That’s it: we need to get the trading season started in the SoB Friends and Family League. My colleague Pete alleged that everyone is satisfied with their team, which is why there hasn’t been any activity. If you’re a team in the top 6 of your league, you should be satisfied, and it would be [...]

The Celtics blew an 11-point fourth quarter lead, falling to the 76ers 95-90. Kevin Garnett had a team-high 18 points but it wasn’t enough, especially in the fourth quarter.

Hopefully for C’s fans, 76ers star Andre Iguodala, above, will be scratching his head a lot this season.(Courtesy of NBA.com) The Celtics and division rival 76ers are going in opposite directions.
