Here’s another edition of our Round(Ball) Table, where the Posting & Toasting crew convene to share our speculations, worries, and frustrations. With the All-Star weekend now behind us, it’s time to speculate about the remainder of the season. With the New York Knicks sitting third behind the Detroit Pistons and Boston Celtics, what seed should they […]
Cheers to commentor 1130PAR for suggesting this topic. Keep ‘em coming! We Celtics fanatics consume a ridiculous volume of Boston Celtics content and the large majority of the game coverage is fed to us by NBC Sports Boston as the Regional Sports Network for the team. So much so that they become like part of […]
James Harden is a walking paradox. The newest Cleveland Cavaliers star is a man who’s inarguably changed how basketball is played — especially by those at the top of the game. He has birthed an entire generation of players who put their own spin on the heliocentric, perfectly spaced, three-outcome offense he pioneered. Jayson Tatum, […]
Back in October, before this NBA season began, did you perhaps open up a sports betting app on your phone and wager on how many wins the Boston Celtics would achieve? Did you say they would win at least 48? Maybe 50? More than 50? If so, then the odds are good that you’re about […]

Nikola Vučević has played three games with Boston and, so far, he’s been exactly as advertised. The Montenegrin big man is averaging 13.7 points and 9.7 rebounds while shooting 48.5% from the floor and better than 41% from three. As a proven veteran, you generally know what you’re getting from Vučević — steady scoring, strong […]

It is NBA gospel to believe that Larry Bird and Magic Johnson, shining stars as they were in the East (and West), enabled the league to rise into the firmament, to become the Goliath it has since become. Upon their arrival in 1979, they polished pro basketball’s profile, burying its sordid, drug-addled past and paving the way for […]
LOS ANGELES — Last week, Jaylen Brown shared an Instagram story that highlighted the Celtics’ record this year compared to last year. The graphic, created by NBC Sports Boston, compared the 2024-2025 Celtics’ and the 2025-2026 Celtics’ record, net, offensive, and defensive ratings at the All-Star break, ultimately demonstrating how, remarkably, both teams’ on-court success […]
After 54 games, the Boston Celtics have the third-best Net Rating in the NBA, and I still cannot wrap my mind around it. How is it possible that a team that lost its best player and its most important rim protectors, built a roster with young players and minimum contracts, and still kept winning at […]

Michael Bullock has admired the Boston Celtics for as long as he can remember. His father, James Bullock, introduced him to the team at birth (literally), and rather than revere their 18 championships, Michael has learned far more from his favorite team. “My dad has a strong attachment to the Celtics,” Michael told CelticsBlog. “He […]
At the All-Star break, it’s worth acknowledging something that felt unlikely just four months ago. The Celtics are good, not just scrappy, feisty, or ahead of schedule — they’re all of those things too, don’t get me wrong. They are in-your-face, out-in-the-open good. At the not-quite-exact halfway point of the season, the Boston Celtics own […]
Boston Celtics two-way player Ron Harper Jr. appeared twice in the NBA All-Star Weekend festivities, but fell short of leaving a mark on either competition. The 25-year-old participated in the Castrol Rising Stars mini-tournament on Friday and the Kia Shooting Stars competition on Saturday. Harper Jr. started at shooting guard for Team Austin in the […]

This year’s NBA All Star game will be Jaylen Brown’s 5th. Jayson Tatum has been in 6 himself. Newcomer Nikola Vucevic appeared in two. If they are back at normal health next season, I would expect to see Brown and Tatum back in the game. But will there be a 3rd member of the team […]
Chelsea Gray, Allisha Gray, Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Plum advanced to the semifinals of Unrivaled’s 1-on-1 Tournament.

He also predicted who he thinks will capture the coveted $200K, forecasting a Point Gawd triumph over Boston in the final. What do you […]
Hi, everyone. It’s been a while since I had something to say here. The past two years have been pretty difficult for me as a fan. In February 2024, I lost the most important Celtics fan in my life, my dad, and just a few months later, I lost my father-in-law, who was another lifelong […]
