Parquet Plays : How the Celtics played perfect Mazzulla Ball in the clutch
“What’s our offensive philosophy? Create two-on-ones.” Joe Mazzulla said. His voice rose as he pounded the table for emphasis. “Find the two-on-one, make the right play against the two-on-one. For as long as I’m here, that’s going to be our offensive philosophy.” It was a moment that captured the fiery precision of Boston’s head coach […]

“I believe in them”: Celtics lifted Jaylen Brown’s spirit in redemption win over Magic
The Celtics spent a taxing three-day weekend in Orlando. It began with a return to NBA Cup play, where the Celtics watched a fourth-quarter lead unravel into a nightmarish 26-14 Magic run on Friday night. Boston chalked up the defeat — and its late-game Jenga tower collapse — to “growing pains” and a steep “learning […]
Anfernee Simons makes history, earns Jaylen Brown’s praise in win over Magic
ORLANDO — Anfernee Simons played just two minutes in the first half of Friday’s 123-110 loss to the Orlando Magic. The Celtics were outscored by 11 in that stretch, and Joe Mazzulla opted to give Jordan Walsh and Hugo Gonzalez more extended run. Afterwards, Simons was gracious about his benching. “J-Walsh and Hugo came in […]
Luka Garza shines in the Celtics win
Luka Garza’s first ten games as a Boston Celtic have had some ups and some downs. That is to be expected from a player on his third team in five years and has never had a regular rotation role. In fact, before Sunday night, Garza only had one game where he was a positive in […]
Jordan Walsh’s NBA life is on the line — and Mazzulla loves how he’s handled it
ORLANDO — Normally, when Jordan Walsh plays the entire fourth quarter, it means the game is out of reach. Just a week ago, in a blowout Celtics loss to the Houston Rockets, Walsh played all 12 fourth-quarter minutes, running around and getting up shots against the Rockets’ two-way players. But this time, Walsh’s fourth-quarter minutes […]

Anfernee Simons ignited the Celtics in the first half, Luka Garza shifted the momentum late and Jordan Walsh provided the finishing touches to steer the Celtics to a 111-107 road win over the Magic on Sunday.

Early lessons from a 4-6 Celtics start
Heading into the season, we knew the Celtics would be searching for their identity. When you know Jayson Tatum will spend most of the year (if not all) in street clothes, and you say goodbye to Al Horford, Jrue Holiday, Luke Kornet, and Kristaps Porziņģis, it was clear Boston would take a step back. The […]

Jaylen Brown is guiding Celtics through brutal reality he knew was coming
ORLANDO — From the beginning of the season, Jaylen Brown maintained that figuring out the process of winning would be a challenge. “It takes time,” Brown said after the Celtics’ loss to the Detroit Pistons, which knocked them down to an 0-3 start. “It does.” And, through 10 games, Boston has struggled more than at […]
Ten takeaways as Boston loses late in Orlando
#1 – A rivalry brewing? Last night we watched a spirited Boston performance, deserving of plaudits, particularly for those second and third quarters. Ultimately, though, away from home, Orlando handed Boston our first cup loss.

With another tumble came another painful reminder of Celtics’ “learning curve”
Growth, at times, can be as painful and agonizing as it is rewarding, and the Celtics experienced that firsthand in their NBA Cup duel with the Magic on Friday night. Over six months after eliminating the Magic in the first round of last season’s NBA Playoffs, Boston returned to Orlando — this time significantly more […]
Jaylen Brown, Celtics remain encouraged as losses mount
ORLANDO — Midway through the fourth quarter, the Celtics had completely erased a 16-point deficit to take a 1-point lead. Only six more solid minutes, and the Celtics could improve to 5-5, with an impressive win over the Orlando Magic under their belt. Then came a sequence of game-shifting plays. After securing a loose ball, […]
Celtics drop first NBA Cup game, lost to Magic 123-110
Back in April, the Celtics disposed of the Magic in five games. However, that gentleman’s sweep wasn’t indicative of how rough and tumble that first round series was. Now, with the NBA Cup in mind, Orlando exacted some revenge with a 123-110 win over Boston. After making a big trade to acquire Desmond Bane, the […]

How Boston accidentally became a mid-range team
For the first time since the 2013/14 season, the Celtics are among the top five teams in long mid-range frequency in the NBA. In a nutshell, the last time this happened, it was Brad Stevens’ first season as head coach and the Celtics’ only season without a playoff appearance in the last 17 years. Will […]
Celtics Film Round-Up: Week 3
We’re back again. It’s been a strange week of Celtics basketball; frustrating losses, Jaylen Brown’s scoring, Jaylen Brown’s hair, things of this nature.

Honey, the Celtics shrunk their lineup

Against the Wizards, they used six different combinations for 16:37, with each quarter seeing at least one different lineup variation. And with those results […]
