Celtics Pull Away In Win Over Thunder

By ⋅ March 30, 2009 ⋅ 6 comments

Through the first three quarters of the game, the Celtics and Thunder were neck and neck. In the fourth quarter, however, the C’s took over and outscored Oklahoma City 32-16 to win 103-84. Glen Davis and Paul Pierce were Boston’s big stars as Kevin Garnett sat out again to rest his weak knee. Pierce led all scorers [...]

By ⋅ March 19, 2009 ⋅ One comment

As if there was any doubt, the Celtics officially clinched the Atlantic Division Wednesday night. The 2nd place 76ers can win no more than 51 games (the C’s current win total), and the Celts have already won the season series tie-breaker. In a game without Ray Allen (out with an elbow injury), Kevin Garnett (out [...]

Powe Has Career Game in Celtics Win

By ⋅ March 14, 2009 ⋅ One comment

Maybe the Celtics don’t need Kevin Garnett and Glen “Big Baby” Davis? OK, that’s a little ridiculous. But for now, it’s going to help the team for the playoffs that Leon Powe is getting all the big man minutes with KG, Baby, and Brian Scalabrine out of the lineup. And it’s starting to pay dividends… [...]

Celtics Make Comeback, but Still Fall Short to Magic

By ⋅ March 8, 2009 ⋅ One comment

The Celtics, playing without Kevin Garnett and Rajon Rondo (sprained ankle), were down by as much as 22 points against the Magic, but got the game within three points late in the fourth quarter thanks to a tremendous effort from Ray Allen. However, after a missed three-point attempt to tie the game, a bad call [...]

Celtics Clinch Playoff Spot with Win

By ⋅ March 5, 2009 ⋅ One comment

Despite sporting the league’s best defense, the Celtics allowed 111 points to the Nets in New Jersey Wednesday night. Sometimes, teams don’t bring their “A” game, but the best teams tend to find a way to win without playing their best. Paul Pierce played his best, however, scoring 31 points on 12-14 shooting with five assists [...]

Marbury Debuts in Celtics Win Over Pacers

By ⋅ February 28, 2009 ⋅ 2 comments

Wearing a familiar No. 8 (like Antoine Walker before him), Stephon Marbury made his long-awaited debut for the Celtics Friday night. The Celts were without Gabe Pruitt after suspending him two games for his DUI arrest, and needed a backup point guard to step right in. In came Marbury, who actually played pretty well considering [...]

Take a deep breath Celtics fans, the Starbury era is upon us. Stephon Marbury has officially signed with the Celtics and might suit up tonight for the game against the Pacers.

By ⋅ February 24, 2009 ⋅ One comment

The Celtics are in the process of rounding out their roster for the playoff run, and moved in that direction Tuesday with the signing of Mikki Moore. Moore, a 7’0″ forward/center, will help give the Celts some serious muscle. Then, late Tuesday night, the Celtics began to zero in on disgruntled guard Stephon Marbury. The [...]

Sam Cassell Traded to Kings

By ⋅ February 17, 2009 ⋅ 3 comments

With an open roster spot in mind, the Celtics today agreed to trade player/coach Sam Cassell to the Sacramento Kings for a conditional second round draft choice. Cassell makes the veteran minimum so the Celts aren’t saving much money but it seems as though the team is freeing up a roster spot in order to [...]

By ⋅ January 27, 2009 ⋅ 2 comments

Two stories came out Monday showing that Danny Ainge thinks the Celtics need one more scoring guard off the bench. First, Knicks guard Stephon Marbury, the self-proclaimed best point guard in the NBA, revelead that he has a “verbal agreement” with the Celtics. Second, Reggie Miller (yes, the 43-year-old Reggie Miller)revealed on the Dan Patrick [...]

By ⋅ January 3, 2009 ⋅ One comment

The Celtics seem like the only team seriously interested in Stephon Marbury, and Marbury again reaffirmed his desire to play for the defending NBA Champions. Marbury told reporters at Friday’s Timberwolves game (he was there to see his cousin, Sebastian Telfair) that he was interested in reuniting with former teammate Kevin Garnett. As a younger [...]
