Nowitzki, Mavericks Crush Shorthanded Celtics

By ⋅ February 21, 2012 ⋅ One comment

Hmm… let’s see. The Celtics struggled badly with rebounds Monday night against the Dallas Mavericks. They also couldn’t move the ball offensively, find open shots or accomplish anything in the paint. The Celtics played the Mavericks without Kevin Garnett (family matter), Brandon Bass (knee) and Rajon Rondo (two-game suspension). They lost to the Mavericks, 89-73. [...]

In the closing seconds of Thursday night’s overtime game against the Lakers, the Celtics found themselves a point down. Paul Pierce fired a potential game-winner, but the shot rimmed out.

When Jeff Green went down for the season with an aortic aneurysm, he left a gaping hole on the wing for the Celtics. Then, Paul Pierce injured his heel.

Celtics Give up Game 6 to Orlando

By ⋅ May 15, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Game 6 was a terrible game, as both teams played poorly the whole way through. There were dumb fouls, turnovers, and missed shots all over the place. This hardly looked like two of the three best teams in the Eastern Conference fighting to play in the next round. However, Orlando came out the victorious, beating Boston 83-75 [...]
