That was better. A game after losing by 45 to the Boston Celtics, the Wizards fell behind by as much as 20 in the first half, erased that entire deficit to tie the game early in the fourth quarter, and then got bum rushed over the final 10 minutes to lose by 15. Yes, this […]

With Luka Dončić and LeBron James out for LA’s contest against the Celtics, the Lakers needed somebody to step up and produce so they could continue winning during this road trip. Typically, Austin Reaves has not only embraced but also thrived in this role. He had 51 points against the Kings earlier this year when […]

A win against the Lakers is always a good win. It's funny that they were whining about JJ not playing Vanderbilt when probably if he did, they would have trashed him like they did everyone else who did play. It would seem that LeBron isn't all that popular with Lakers fans either. Still so many comments about Jaylen's hairline. Lakers fans are really so bad trashing every player on their team. My favorites are in bold. What are yours? The B...

Back in mid-November, the Celtics found themselves sitting with a 5-7 record – still searching for consistency, struggling to close out tight games and trying to find their identity. Since that point, they’ve looked like a mature and battle-tested team that has the answers to the test. The Celtics are playing inspired basketball and have […]

Keeping the engine running and their three-game winning streak alive was the top priority for the Celtics on Friday night. So the team leaned on its roots against the LeBron James- and Luka Dončić-less Lakers: returning to the philosophy of Mazzulla-ball. It took only seven minutes and nine seconds into the first quarter for Boston […]

Well, that was a basketball game. The shorthanded Lakers didn’t have a chance at all at beating the Celtics. Boston started red-hot from 3-point range and ended the game hitting 24 from beyond the arc. Los Angeles appeared exhausted and unable to put up much of a fight. Head coach JJ Redick cleared his bench […]

With Jayson Tatum, LeBron James, Luka Doncic and Marcus Smart all sidelined, this watered-down version of Celtics-Lakers didn’t carry quite the same weight as many others over the years. But, Jaylen Brown, Derrick White, Jordan Walsh and Payton Pritchard ensured Celtics fans still got their money’s worth. Brown led the way with 30 points, 8 […]

The Lakers couldn’t find enough firepower to stop the Boston Celtics, losing 126-105, on Friday night. LA had a rough start offensively, allowing the Celtics to take an early eight-point lead. Derrick White drained two quick 3-pointers. At the 6:39 mark, the Lakers were still in single digits with just seven points scored. Los Angeles […]

UPDATE: The Lakers made it official ruling LeBron James out against the Celtics due to right sciatica and left joint arthritis. This will make beating Boston that much harder, but given that LeBron is the oldest player in the NBA, it makes sense for him not to push it and play both games in back-to-back matchups. […]

#1 – Assists percentage through the roof The Celtics are dead last in assist percentage this season, with an assist on only 56.5% of their baskets. This is directly linked to Boston’s huge tendency to lean on isolation, especially with Jaylen Brown. Last night, as the Celtics’ go-to guy was resting, the team needed to […]

The Boston Celtics dominated the Washington Wizards in the nation’s capital, with their revamped defensive approach playing a pivotal role in the victory.
