Trade ideas, Sam Hauser, and book recommendations (Mailbag answers)

I asked for mailbag questions and (as usual) you guys delivered! Here they are: TheJohnBagleyAllstars Can we get Rob back for both 2026 2nds? I wouldn’t mind bringing The Timelord back. He’s clearly a walking injury risk, but maybe that means he’d be less expensive to re-sign? He has an expiring $13M salary that we […]

Roman Anthony, man about town

Roman Anthony was recently spotted at a Celtics game, which is awesome. It’s always fun to see Patriots, Celtics, and Bruins players show up at Fenway on Opening Day, especially after a World Series. Or David Ortiz at anything. Just seeing Big Papi showing up somewhere makes it that much more interesting. So as this […]

Jaylen Brown found the line without crossing it

Every season, Jaylen Brown can be counted on to add or enhance a piece of his game. As he’s stepped into the full-time No. 1 option role, getting to the free throw line has been a massive factor behind his elite production. Foul drawing is a skill. There is the arm-hooking, foul-baiting variety that draws […]

Celtics comeback win sparked by two “really, really great” friends

BOSTON — On paper, Celtics forwards Baylor Scheierman and Hugo Gonzalez don’t have a ton in common. Scheierman is a 25-year-old from Nebraska; Gonzalez is a 19-year-old from Madrid. But the Celtics’ two most recent first-round draft picks have quickly formed a great friendship apparent to anyone who steps foot into the Celtics locker room […]

GAME PREVIEW: Heat back home to host visiting Toronto Raptors amid rough stretch

The Miami Heat are coming off a difficult three-game road trip in which they went 1-2. They have suffered back-to-back losses to the rival Boston Celtics and New York Knicks— without many answers in sight to snap out of this rough stretch.

Comments from the Other Side - Pacers 12/22/25

 What a game by Joe Mazzulla and the Celtics.  The comment that said that they were spoiled by the starters playing like meh were right on.  The starters were not giving any effort on defense and were playing like they expected to win without any effort.  Kudos to Joe for benching them and kudos to the bench guys for bringing the effort and energy especially on defense.  Also to the starters for bringing it when they came back in.  My favorites are in bold.  ...

The Decline Of The Three Pointer

When last season began, 3-pointers were all the rage, due in part to the Boston Celtics’ success liberally employing the shot to capture the 2024 NBA title. But styles change. The value of the three remains apparent, but not as a predominant offensive weapon. Boston again converted the most threes among the pros in 2025, […]

10 Takeaways from the Celtics storming back against the Pacers

1. Starters lump of coal turned to diamonds At the 9:22 mark and the Celtics down 20, Mazzulla pulled all of the starters off the floor out of a timeout, seemingly sending a message due to the lack of effort. The bench unit of Anfernee Simons-Hugo Gonzalez-Sam Hauser-Baylor Scheierman-Luka Garza would come in and immediately […]

Celtics complete 20-point comeback, beat Pacers 103-95

On a night when Jaylen Brown scored 31 points, it was Hugo Gonzalez who shined bright for the Celtics, playing nearly the entire second half. His energy was such a key in Boston’s comeback after they looked flat for the first half and the beginning of the 2nd half. Jordan Walsh joined Jayson Tatum on […]

#1 – Luka Garza and the Celtics controlled the board I never thought I would start the 10 Takeaways with Luka Garza, but here we are – and how could we not? In 26 minutes, the former Timberwolves big man grabbed nine offensive rebounds. That’s as many as the entire Raptors team. Led by Garza, […]
