The Boston Celtics were one win away from the NBA Finals in 2018, coming as close as any team has to preventing LeBron James from making the finals since 2010. They did so with their two biggest off-season acquisitions on the shelf in Kyrie Irving and Gordon Hayward. Their return and the defection of LeBron [...]

The Boston Celtics were one win away from the NBA Finals last season with two all-star caliber players on the shelf in Kyrie Irving and Gordon Hayward. It would be safe to assume they’re the heavy favorite to make the NBA Finals this season with the eastern conference’s ruler, LeBron James, having moved out west [...]

Jaylen Brown ended up logging almost 25 minutes during the Boston Celtics’ 108-103 Game 2 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday night. Had the team’s doctors gotten their way, though, he wouldn’t have seen a single solitary second on the court. That’s the message Brown, along with head coach Brad Stevens, delivered after the [...]
The Boston Celtics’ toughness and perseverance despite all of their injury issues is a true marvel and testament to their coaching and the heart of their players on the roster. Despite being without Kyrie Irving, Gordon Hayward and Daniel Theiss, the Celtics managed to win their first round series with the Milwaukee Bucks in 7 [...]

We all know a guy or two that (maybe you are one…), claims that some NBA players are trash while they watch a game and go as far as to say that they can beat them in a game of 1-on-1. I will be honest, I like most have said that an NBA player is [...]

It was all a ruse. Or so Kyrie Irving says. Remember when he stirred up the masses by copping to being a flat-earth truther on the Road Trippin’ podcast? Well, apparently, he was just kidding, as he told The Toucher and Rich Show: [tweet https://twitter.com/Toucherandrich/status/912390637726650368?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fftw.usatoday.com%2F2017%2F09%2Fnba-celtics-kyrie-irving-flat-earth-trolling] Jaylen Brown is going to be so upset.

Jaylen Brown and rookie Jayson Tatum are incredibly important to the Boston Celtics’ future. But, by virtue of losing Avery Bradley and Jae Crowder, they’re also pivotal to the present. Yes, the Celtics signed Gordon Hayward, and Bradley’s departure came with Marcus Morris as compensation. Still, both Bradley (off-ball scorer, crafty defender) and Crowder (gutsy [...]

To say the Boston Celtics and Indiana Pacers remain miles apart in negotiations for Paul George would be an understatement. On Thursday, Mark Murphy of the Boston Herald reported Kevin Pritchard, Indy’s team president, was asking for the moon in George talks: [tweet https://twitter.com/Murf56/status/880468484920049664] Yeah, the Pacers aren’t getting that much. And if the Celtics have [...]
