Latest news and updates about the Celtics
After a remarkably bad showing from the officials in Sunday’s Game 4, punishments have been handed out… ….to the Lakers.

It was always going to take a lot for the Sixers to pull off a first-round upset over the second-seeded Boston Celtics. They were going to have to make the rebounding battle look respectable, which they haven’t done. They were going to have to keep Boston’s role players in check, which they haven’t done. Their […]
Great win! I love Payton Pritchard!!! It was funny how before the game it was all how Embiid was the GOAT and would make the difference and get them a win. Then afterwards, they were wanting to trade him and he was slow and lost the game. Love how many Celtics fans were there. Sixers fans insulting the Celtics and calling them names and wishing injury on them is terrible. Hopefully the Celtics close this out in 5. My favorites are in bold. ...
Everything you need to know about Game 4 of the Sixers-Celtics series was encapsulated in a single Boston possession late in the first quarter.

PHILADELPHIA — Payton Pritchard is sitting at his locker, his ankles submerged in ice. “I need another win on the way home,” he says, grinning. Neemias Queta chuckles and shakes his head.

Boxing is not what it once was, but for much of the 20th century, it was a huge draw.
