Typically, NBA preseason basketball can feel like a bit of a snoozefest. For teams with a set-in-stone starting lineup and rotation, those exhibition games are a way to shake off the rust and get the roster warmed up before Opening Night arrives. However, for the Celtics, their preseason had its highest level of intrigue in […]

With the dust now settled, Hugo Gonzalez might just be the big winner of Boston’s preseason. The 28th overall pick from this year’s draft is in a crowded position group entering his rookie season, but alongside Josh Minott, his four-game preseason sample was largely a positive one. Gonzalez’s defense, rebounding and pure athleticism may make […]

Good win to close out the preseason. Next time they take the court, it will be for real against the 76ers. Raptors fans are funny. They trashed their own team way more than they did the Celtics. Poor Scottie Barnes. He really got a lot of hate from the fans. And, they sent a lot of love toward the Celtics, especially Pritchard and White. I do think the Celtics are going to be fun to watch this season. My favorites are in bold. What ar...

I was amazing to me to see how few people were posting on the Cavs game threads. Most of the forums that were very active when LeBron was back with the team are ghost towns without any posts for a couple of years. Others have game threads but very few posters. Very sad. So, not a lot of comments today. The Celtics looked good with the caveat that the Cavs starters didn't play. I really like Minott, Boucher and Garza. Simons can score and I don't ...

This game meant nothing and didn't show us much. Brown and White sat out and all of the Raptors starters sat out. The Celtics built a 26 point lead while their starters played but the end of the bench guys couldn't hold it and staged a basketball giveaway in the 4th quarter. It was an entertaining game and I'm liking what I see from Garza, Minott, Boucher and Gonzalez. I liked how much they still like Boucher. And love that they think of Pritchard as a Raptors Kil...
