Clutch Opportunities—The Week in Green

The Celtics went 4-0 since my last column, notching a solid win over the Warriors, and some uneven performances against the Wizards, Suns, and Grizzlies. The negative way of looking at this is that the C’s really shouldn’t have struggled against the Grizzlies (24-45), and probably shouldn’t have had such a hard time with the […]

Comments from the Other Side - Grizzlies 3/20/26

  This one had me worried for much of the game.  The Celtics were sleep walking for much of it.  Not hitting shots and not giving normal effort on defense.  Glad they finally woke up in the 4th. There weren't a lot of Grizzlies fans chatting in the forums for this one.  Seems like most have given up on the season.   I always love it when there are a lot of Celtics fans in away arenas.  Funny how some fans loved the halftime show and others thought it cri...

10 Takeaways from the Celtics Grit & Grind Win Over Grizzlies

1. Escaped the Trap Game Coming into this game, the Memphis Grizzlies had 10 players listed as OUT on the injury report and were running out guys on two-way deals and 10-day contracts against a mostly healthy Boston Celtics team only missing Nikola Vucevic. This has the recipe for a gold old fashioned Trap Game […]

Washington Wizards center Anthony Davis will be sidelined through the end of the month with a finger sprain, the team announced Friday. Davis hasn’t played since early January when he suffered ligament damage in his left hand. The 32-year-old forward opted against surgery before he was later traded to the Wizards for a package that […]

What changed for Jordan Walsh in the Celtics’ rotation

Jordan Walsh’s season has already had two distinct phases. Back in mid-November, he stepped into the starting lineup and stayed there for the next 20 games. The Celtics went 15–5 during that stretch, and his role made sense within what Boston needed at the time. He defended across positions, ran the floor, and kept the […]

Comments from the Other Side - Warriors 3/18/26

  Always good to beat the Warriors after the '22 Finals.   I can't say I'm surprised that they don't like Kerr.  What he did to Tatum in the Olympics was inexcusable.   I will never like the guy for that but he has been overrated as a coach because of having Steph.  It's bad when you think your player is showing growth when they don't step on someone.  I love it when other fans envy the Celtics front office, coach and players.  We are a very lucky f...
