BOSTON — The second-best teams in both of the NBA’s conferences will face off for the first time this season on Saturday night at 8pm. And to make things even more exciting, both the Celtics and Spurs enter the primetime matchup relatively healthy. Still, the Celtics will be without Josh Minott, who is dealing with […]
#1 – The best offense vs. the best defense since December 20th What a great way to promote a game from Sean Grande. Last night’s game was a duel between the Celtics’ offensive surge and the Raptors’ defensive wall. Unfortunately, Scottie Barnes’ injury made it harder for Toronto to remain elite on the defensive end, […]
BOSTON — Jaylen Brown knew a tweak was needed on Friday night. Two nights earlier, Brown claimed the Denver Nuggets “got away with a lot,” limiting his opportunities to get to the free-throw line. He attempted only three foul shots that night, coming 48 hours after he had only drawn two against the Chicago Bulls. […]
BOSTON — Payton Pritchard finished Friday’s Celtics win against the Toronto Raptors with an impressive statline: 27 points (12-19 FG), 8 assists — and just a single turnover. The scoring is noteworthy; Pritchard has had some quieter offensive nights this year, and he’s only tallied at least 27 points six times this season (whether ‘only’ […]
The Raptors came into the game winners of 3 in a row and 5 of 6 — they left Boston losers of 1 in a row. Jaylen Brown, Payton Pritchard, Sam Hauser and Derrick White all scored 18 points or more as Boston beat Toronto, 125-117. Josh Minott once again joined Jayson Tatum on the […]

How will Boston respond after a disappointing loss? The Celtics were riding high after a strong December and wins in their first three games of 2026. That momentum came to an abrupt halt Wednesday night with a 114-110 loss to the Denver Nuggets. Losing to one of the Western Conference’s top teams is usually not […]
Boston wasn’t supposed to look like this. They weren’t supposed to be this good. With Jayson Tatum in and out of the lineup and all the summer departures, the Celtics entered the season with more questions than answers. Shot creation dipped, continuity vanished, and the margin for error shrank. Yet, night after night, Boston has […]

I’m here to help you prepare for this game by breaking down this season’s previous Boston-Toronto matchups; we’ll dig into the important matchups and plays that could define this game.

We’re back! Welcome to the five highest-IQ plays of the week! Sure, we love the high-flying dunks and the deep, off-the-dribble step-back threes, but this is a place for the under-the-radar plays that might not get the credit they deserve. The plays that get the basketball sickos and nerds out of their chairs. The plays […]
Things have gone very well for the Boston Celtics thus far this season. Far better than just about anyone could have imagined. That alone is a victory and sets up the team for future success in the years to come. But from a current season perspective, it is merely a feel good story if the […]
BOSTON — The Celtics look to bounce back from a Wednesday loss against the Denver Nuggets when they face the Toronto Raptors on Friday night at TD Garden. The Celtics will be without Josh Minott, who will miss his second straight game with an ankle sprain, and Jayson Tatum, who is expected to miss most, […]
There’s still a lot of season left and a lot of things could happen between now and April. However, it seems like a good time to look back on the previews posted back in October and evaluate where we are now in relation. First there’s the standard preview I do every year where I look […]
Boston’s loss against Denver wasn’t just about missed shots or late-game execution. It was, above all, a night where defensive choices, communication, and coverage discipline consistently put the Celtics in uncomfortable situations. Jamal Murray became the main stress test — and the Celtics never fully solved it. The Celtics started the game with Jaylen Brown […]
On Tuesday night, the Boston Celtics faced off against the Denver Nuggets, a cross-conference battle between top teams. Despite the absence of Nikola Jokic, Denver was able to take home the win thanks to some hot shooting and a timely fourth quarter surge. It was an extremely physical game. It felt as though the refs […]
1. Outplayed in the 4th quarter Going into the fourth quarter, the Celtics were up 82-79 and a solid final quarter could have sealed the victory. Instead, the Nuggets went on a 22-6 to open up an 11-point lead with 4 minutes to go and it felt like the game ended right there. Boston got […]
BOSTON — Jaylen Brown hasn’t had many off nights this season, but Wednesday night against the Denver Nuggets was — for the most part — one of those nights. Impressively, Brown still managed to put up a more-than-respectful respectable stat line of 33 points (14-29 FG), 7 rebounds, and 4 assists. That, on its face, […]
BOSTON — Typically, the Boston Celtics play with more discipline than most teams in the league. But despite averaging the fewest turnovers, they failed to uphold those principles when face-to-face with the Nikola Jokić-less Denver Nuggets. Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla admitted that the team’s effort against the Chicago Bulls 48 hours prior didn’t meet his […]
For much of the game, the Nuggets and Celtics battled, then in the 4th quarter it looked like Denver was pulling away. However, the Celtics made a late push but they came up short as Denver was able to hold off Boston 114-110. Jaylen Brown scored 33 points but also had 7 turnovers in the […]
