Comments from the Other Side - Grizzlies 3/20/26

  This one had me worried for much of the game.  The Celtics were sleep walking for much of it.  Not hitting shots and not giving normal effort on defense.  Glad they finally woke up in the 4th. There weren't a lot of Grizzlies fans chatting in the forums for this one.  Seems like most have given up on the season.   I always love it when there are a lot of Celtics fans in away arenas.  Funny how some fans loved the halftime show and others thought it cri...

Comments from the Other Side - Warriors 3/18/26

  Always good to beat the Warriors after the '22 Finals.   I can't say I'm surprised that they don't like Kerr.  What he did to Tatum in the Olympics was inexcusable.   I will never like the guy for that but he has been overrated as a coach because of having Steph.  It's bad when you think your player is showing growth when they don't step on someone.  I love it when other fans envy the Celtics front office, coach and players.  We are a very lucky f...

Comments from the Other Side - Suns 3/16/26

 I love when opposing fans give credit to our players, especially White and Pritchard.  I love the description of the Celtics as a gym rat lunch pail  lineup.  It's funny that everyone thinks the Celtics get so much help from the refs but the Celtics are last in the league in free throws attempted.  Suns fans can't quite decide whether they like Booker or not.  My favorites are in bold.  What are yours?   Neemias was awsome last game on paper he is ...

Comments from the Other Side - Wizards 3/14/26

  It was good that the Celtics built that 30 point lead or they might have lost it the way they were playing in the 4th quarter.  Maybe we can chalk it up to the first game at home after a very tough road trip.  They have to play better against the Suns or they may get beat.  Every time we face a team like the Wizards I think of how lucky the Celtics are to have Brad and Joe at the helm.  My favorites are in bold.  What are yours?   Big enough gap betwee...

Comments from the Other Side - Thunder 2/12/26

I would much rather the Celtics have won that game but it was a good game nonetheless.  No White, Tatum or Vucevic and they led for much of the game and came very close to a win.  All that without 3 of our top 7 players.  I know OKC was missing 2 of theirs also but I think the players the Celtics were missing were more impactful.  Also,  last game of a road trip after crossing time zones makes a big difference.  And, the 2nd game in a row where the officiating inf...

Comments from the Other Side - Spurs 3/10/26

Spurs fans seem to be a decent bunch.  It was refreshing not to see constant insults and hate toward both teams players.  They gave the Celtics their due for how well they are playing and for not tanking when they very well could have.  I love how much they still love Derrick White.  Also love how many Celtics fans there were in the arena..  Too bad Jaylen flamed out and got ejected.  I know he's frustrated with the officials,  but he has to put team first an...
