Some Celtics Related Links
A while back I wrote a post about brining Delonte West back into the fold. At the time I thought there was a 0% chance. Well it turns out that the Celtics expressed some interest. Of course nothing materialized. Hat tip to CelticsBlog and Red's Army. Not sure why I didn't touch on that earlier. Of...
2008 Men's Olympic Basketball Preview: Spain
With the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics already in the books and basketball tipping off on the 10th, it's good that these Olympic previews are winding down. Fellow SB Nation blog At the Hive will wrap things up tomorrow with a look at a team that comes from a country which rhymes with...
Et tu, Paul Pierce? - The Truth on Jason Kidd, Kobe Bryant, and More
You may have heard that Paul Pierce recently traveled to Spain. The Canadian Press touched upon it in this article, which caught my eye for three reasons: 1. Pierce maintained that team USA needs a gold more than the C's needed championship 17. 2. Pierce talked about playing in Spain at some point....
Assorted Thoughts on the 2008 NBA Playoffs
The Guy I Underrated the Most Prior to the PlayoffsHonorable Mention - Rip Hamilton. Man he's an assassin. On top of that he cared throughout the Celtics series, which did not appear to be the case for some of his teammates. Now on to the winner. Even after he made the All Star team and dropped 37...
Shaq Attack: Target - Kobe Bryant
First off I'd like to give a shout out (the free styling is currently having a big impact on my writing) to Parquet Pride for the two stories I'm about to reference. 1. The first one is somehow both surprising and unsurprising, if that's possible. Regardless it is definitely not suitable for work....
"SCAL-A-BRINE!!!!!" CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP, CLAP
Earlier Fooch linked to Matt Watson's post on Brian Scalabrine's press conference. Here's how I like to think it went down: Some Celtics or NBA behind the scenes guy: "Hey Kobe is still getting ready. We need another Celtic. How about Posey?" The Celtics in Unison: "SCALABRINE!!!" And before the...
Boston Celtics vs. Los Angeles Lakers: Game 6 - In Praise of James Posey
If there was one thing that bothered me tonight it was the fact that people did not praise James Posey enough, despite Jeff Van Gundy's best efforts, following the Celtics victory. Even Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, and KG did give the man enough credit. To review: - Posey took a short term, less than...
Assorted Kobe Thoughts
This night is about the Celtics. It will be a long time before I get over the 131 points they dropped on the Lakers. Still I'd like to touch on a few Kobe Bryant related points. Like it or not he's a massive figure in the NBA. - I found this post comparing Kobe Bryant to Dirk Nowitzki interesting....
Is It Awkward In Here?
Or is it just Kobe Bryant's press conference? He's one angry guy right now.
Boston Celtics vs. Los Angeles Lakers: Game 6 - Open Game Thread
Before I go any further I'd be remiss if I did not bring up the whole Jemele Hill thing. She wrote an article (this is the edited one) in which she compared rooting for the Celtics to something to do with Hitler. Odd. The guys at Red's Army were all over it. Of course ESPN eventually apologized and...
