Typically, NBA preseason basketball can feel like a bit of a snoozefest. For teams with a set-in-stone starting lineup and rotation, those exhibition games are a way to shake off the rust and get the roster warmed up before Opening Night arrives. However, for the Celtics, their preseason had its highest level of intrigue in […]
With the dust now settled, Hugo Gonzalez might just be the big winner of Boston’s preseason.

Good win to close out the preseason. Next time they take the court, it will be for real against the 76ers. Raptors fans are funny. They trashed their own team way more than they did the Celtics.
