Those Who Love The Game – Glenn "Doc" Rivers on Life in the NBA and Elsewhere: Book Review
I first learned about Those Who Love The Game – Glenn “Doc” Rivers on Life in the NBA and Elsewhere, in this article by Bill Reynolds. Rivers worked with Bruce Brooks and I like how they went about it. As a reader it is easy differentiate Rivers’ words from Brooks’. In...
What's Up With the Bandwagon?
With the Celtics bringing the NBA season to a close on Tuesday it is time to change gears a bit around here. What can you expect? 1. I'll be following the draft. At some point I'll be involved in at least one mock draft and will look to put the "mock" right where it belongs. And of course next...
You've Been Celtics'd
You have to give the folks at Reebok credit. The Rondo'd ad campaign was well done. In fact it inspired me to make verbs out of the rest of the Celtics. Obviously it's forced and given the way the season ended, overwhelmingly positive. Such is life. I'll start with Rondo, provided by Reebok, and go...
Boston Celtics vs. Los Angeles Lakers: Game 5 - Recap
As I was watching Game 5 it hit me how annoyed I would be if I were a Lakers fan. The announcers, Jeff Van Gundy in particular, praised James Posey, Boston's defense and the Celtics in general. It was the story line that played throughout the game, while the Lakers still maintained control. And...
Is This Boston's Last Shot?
Ray Allen turns 33 this summer. Kevin Garnett blew out 32 candles a month ago. Paul Pierce will be 31 in the fall. We’ve already seen stretches of inconsistent play from Allen, even if he has been awesome in the Finals. And everyone is still waiting to see how the guys who jumped straight to...
Boston Celtics vs. Los Angeles Lakers: Game 4 - Recap
Some assorted notes before looking at each player atthehive from At The Hive sent me the following note after the game: The funniest part is, I know a die-hard Celtics fan who was at the game and he LEFT at halftime he paid 400 dollars for one ticket and he missed the greatest comeback in...
Ten Keys to Game 4
1. Get Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett going in general, to the hoop in particular. The Celtics can't afford a repeat of Game 3 where Pierce and KG fired jumpers that just didn't fall. 2. Hurt LA's guards in the most legal way possible. And by that I don't mean injure. Rather if the Lakers decide to...

Boston Celtics vs. Cleveland Cavaliers: - Game 7: The Paul Pierce Game
I went and shot around after this game and the adrenaline carried me for about 15 minutes. I'm a mediocre shooter at best. And I hit at least two three pointers from 30 feet. I was throwing in deep baseball shots and all sorts of fall aways as well. Then I crashed back down the earth. I was spent....
