Jayson Tatum is ready for the playoffs
Jayson Tatum wasn’t sure he was going to be here. “I get the opportunity to be a part of this team and play in the playoffs — I couldn’t be more grateful,” Tatum said at his media session on Friday. “I think there’s just more of a sense of gratitude than ever. Not that I […]
Boston faces a tricky equation against Philadelphia’s speed
The Boston Celtics will face the Philadelphia Sixers in the first round of the playoffs, and it is safe to say that they are the clear favorites. The Sixers have the 18th-best net rating (-0.3 per Cleaning The Glass) and will have to play without their best player, Joël Embiid. In the meantime, the Celtics […]

The one stat that could decide Celtics vs. Sixers: can Boston avoid the clutch?
Close your eyes and think about the kid you always matched up against growing up. Little League, Pee Wee hoops, doesn’t matter. Just picture that little stinker and that matchup. Physical. Annoying. A little chippy. Probably would give you wet willies when you weren’t looking. And no matter how many times you played them, it […]

CelticsBlog predictions: Who’s under the most pressure this postseason?
Pressure usually feels obvious this time of year. You know who it’s on, you know what’s at stake, and you know exactly who’s going to hear about it if things go sideways.

CelticsBlog predictions: How do the Celtics win it all?
The regular season is over, and the Celtics did that thing they’ve been doing for years: stacking wins, figuring things out on the fly, and somehow ending up right back in the mix heading into the playoffs.

Inside the offseason conversation that changed my view of the Celtics: ‘We are still that team’
On a sunny August afternoon, I sat down with Payton Pritchard to discuss the reality that the upcoming Celtics season was being widely deemed a Gap Year.
