Celtics Summer League game 1 vs Miami

The Boston Celtics played their first Summer League game today against the Miami Heat.  This was our first chance to check out the Green Team’s newest draft picks in a Celtics uniform.  Before I get into it, remember that Summer League success or failure does not necessarily translate to NBA success or failure.  With that said, here are my thoughts…

A Celtics Update

There isn’t anything major to talk about with the Boston Celtics this summer.  They brought back pretty much the entire team from last season, with the exception of their two rookies, as they look to defend their title and it’s gonna be a while before they sell the team. However, there is a little bit of news to get to so let’s dive into a shamrock update.

This and That

Today was possibly the busiest day in sports.  I could have probably written a separate article for each event but it’s too much all at once.  So instead, you get a brand-new edition of my world famous This and That column.  So much happened today i won’t even talk about the New York Yankees or the amazing Aaron Judge. I am sure I will get into each of these topics in more detail as things unfold but for now, here we go…

NBA Finals Game 5

The Boston Celtics won game 5 of the NBA Finals 106-88 and clinched their NBA record 18th Championship.  Man, did I love typing that sentence.  So, part of me wanted to write this Monday night after the game and just let it be everything I was feeling and thinking at the moment but I decided to wait and let everything sink in.  Usually when I write any article, 5 minutes later I think of a bunch of stuff I should have put in it.  I didn’t want that to happen to this one.  I wanted to take my time and get it a right as I could.  So let’s talk about the 2024 NBA Champion Boston Celtics.

NBA Finals Game 3

The Boston Celtics defeated the Dallas Mavericks 106-99 in game three of the NBA Finals.  The Celtics now lead the series 3-0 and are well on their way to hanging Banner 18 in the rafters of the Boston Garden.  The only question left may be if they will sweep the Mavs and have to celebrate on the road or if Dallas can salvage a game and let the Celtics celebrate in front of their home town fans.

NBA Finals Game 2

The Boston Celtics took a 2-0 lead in the NBA Finals with a 105-98 victory over the Dallas Mavericks.  This was a bad loss for the Mavericks as the night’s when the Celtics can’t throw the ball in the ocean are the night’s you are supposed to beat them.  Failing to do so, even in Boston, can really come back to hurt Dallas’ chances.  With that said, it’s great that the Celtics are up 2-0 but this series is far from over.  The old saying goes “a series doesn’t stop until the home team loses”.  So far, all the Celtics have done is hold serve.  I like their chances to finish this off, but it’s anything but a foregone conclusion.

NBA Final’s Game 1

The Boston Celtics won game one of the NBA Finals in what wasn’t a particularly competitive game.  Everyone played well for the Green Team as they cruised to a victory.  It is only one game of seven but the Celtics got off to the best start they could have hoped for.
