Comments from the Other Side - Bucks 4/3/26

  Another good game by the Celtics.  That graphic cracked me up.  Like I have said many times, Doc lost me when he said that teams don't need to work on defense in practice.  The Celtics won with him because of Thibs and KG.  He's failed everywhere he's gone since.  He constantly puts blame on everyone else except himself.  I love the respect they give Brad Stevens.  It's sad to see how few Bucks fans are commenting in the forums.   And, the on...

What do the Celtics do with two days off in a row? A whole lot, it turns out

BOSTON – Last week, as the regular season began to wind down, I followed the Celtics around for a couple of days. The assignment was not too dissimilar from my usual shenanigans; as a beat reporter, you — in effect — follow the team around to shootarounds, practices, games, and other events (and if you’re wondering, […]

Jayson Tatum’s return has been an A+

The return of Jayson Tatum was much anticipated. We are just about a month into it and it could not have possibly gone any better than it has. Tatum went through a short shooting slump, but he is starting to find his shot and is a positive in every other aspect of the game. In […]

Marcus Smart could return from ankle injury against Mavericks

Erik Spoelstra is shrinking his rotation, and that’s not a good thing

Comments from the Other Side - Heat 4/1/26

It's always good to beat the Heat.   Heat fans have certainly come down a peg from how puffed up they were during the Heatles era.   It's so funny how they went from the Celtics have no answer for Bam to wanting him gone and calling him pathetic.   It really surprises me how much they don't like Spoelstra.  He's a top 15 all time coach.  Describing Scheierman as the guy with the mullet and the stache cracked me up for some reason. My favorites are in bol...

The Celtics are about get some good injury news — and a major boost

MIAMI — As Jayson Tatum concluded his media availability on Wednesday morning, Nikola Vucevic sauntered by. “Say something nice about me, Jayson!” Vucevic belted after passing by the scrum. “Vooch?
