While everyone constantly argues about officiating and calls in basketball, the goaltending rule feels pretty clear. A defender can not touch the ball on its descent or interfere with the rim. So, in the third quarter of the Lakers-Celtics matchup, when Neemias Queta stuck his entire hand through the basket on a Deandre Ayton shot […]
The Boston Celtics have been one of the great surprise stories of the season. Much of the credit for that success goes to head coach Joe Mazzulla.

When you’re run off the floor by your rival, there aren’t many positives that can be taken away. Particularly with the way things played out in the fourth quarter, there was definitely a very sour taste in the mouths of fans walking away from that contest. However, when looking at the box score, it wasn’t […]

The Lakers had plenty of self-inflicted wounds in Sunday’s loss to the Celtics. Both a lack of effort and a lack of execution doomed them, bitter pills to swallow in a rivalry game.

Tommy Points for everyone. On a night where the Lakers honored Pat Riley, the prince of pomade himself, and the greater Showtime era, it’s fitting to see Boston win by way of physicality and vigor. This 111-89 win was dominated both on the margins and in the more visibly loud areas of scoring and defending. […]
It's always good to beat the Lakers. I love how Lakers fans went from superstar Reaves to trash Reaves. Love all the envy of Mazzulla, Brad Stevens and Pritchard. I'm not surprised by their LeBron hate. If they win next game though they'll be back to being cocky and overrating everyone on their team. Poor Jaylen will never live down the hair incident. I love it when Celtics fans show up in mass on the road. My favorites are in bold. What ar...
#1 – 60 seconds that says it all Sometimes, 48 minutes can be sum up in just 60 seconds – and last night’s game against LA was the case. In this sequence, the Celtics are able to take four shots while the Lakers only have one attempt, which is blocked from behind. The willingness to […]
The Celtics are closing in on an interesting benchmark for potential NBA contenders. Their current record is 37-19, which puts 40-20 in play. For those that aren’t familiar, the 40-20 rule is defined as follows (via NBA reddit): The 40-20 rule, coined by Phil Jackson, states that legitimate NBA championship contenders must secure 40 wins […]
Coming into the season, the Boston Celtics weren’t taken nearly as seriously as in recent years. The team was dismissed early and so, too, were Jaylen Brown’s chances of mounting a legitimate MVP case. Brown, the lone man in the driver’s seat with Jayson Tatum sidelined, has reshaped not only how he’s perceived but also […]
