The Celtics blow out the Hawks 132-106 behind a 41pt performance from JB and 30pts from Hauser!! This was an absolute offensive masterpiece.

The Celtics beat the Heat 119-114 behind an absolutely insane Anfernee Simons game. He scored a franchise record 39pts off the bench and carried this Celtics team on his back!!! The CEltics were down by as many as 19pts in this game and stayed down double digits for the majority of the night but the 4th quarter, Simons scored 18 and buried the Heat! For the full player analysis and game breakdown,...

The Celtics lose to the Pacers 98-96 in a game of massive runs. JB didn't play tonight so it feels like this was a scheduled loss even against the Pacers but the Celtics were right in this game down the stretch. Pritchard was great in this game and we got a lot from Simons in the 2nd quarter keeping the Celtics afloat. The Celtics gave up a 17-2 run spanning 7 minutes from the end of the 2nd t...

The Celtics lose to Luke Kornet and the Spurs 100-95. The Celtics, who have the most efficient offense in NBA history gets held to just 95pts on 41% from the field, 36% from 3 and only 4FT attempts... White and JB both did their thing scoring 29 and 27 respectively despite neither of them being particularly efficient but outside of that, the Celtics didn't get a lot of help. Pritchard and Simo...

The Celtics beat the Raptors 125-117 improving to 24-13 on the season! This was a game where you got contributions up and down the roster. Pritchard led the way with a team high 27pts and 8ast but also added 5 reb. JB, while not as efficient as normal, added 25pts 8reb 7ast. The Celtics also scored 125pts while only taking 28 3pt attempts. This was certainly a fun game to watch. For a full player...

The Celtics come into this game as one of the hottest teams in the NBA playing against a Nuggets team without Jokic and walk out with a 114-110 loss. Jamal Murray absolutely ripped apart the Celtics defense and ended up with 17 assists!!! Peyton Watson, who averages 12PPG ended the night with 30pts on 6-7 from 3 and was a walking bucket all night. It was definitely a tough loss but there is a lot...

The Boston Celtics beat the Bulls 115-101 improving to 23-12 and move into 2nd place in the Eastern Conference after the Knicks got waxed by Detroit! Anfernee Simons led the way scoring tonight with 27pts all of which came in the 2nd half! He started this game 0-3 from beyond the arc and went on to hit 8 for his next 11!!! Pritchard also played really well in this scoring 21pts including a buzzer...

The Celtics blow the doors off the Clippers 146-115 who were the hottest team in the NBA coming into the night winners of 6 straight games. JB put on a ridiculous scoring show dropping 50pts on 69% from the field and 60% from 3.... You know he played out of his mind when he is getting MVP chants in LA!!! White was also playing unbelievably well in the first half today too adding 29pts of his own....

The Celtics beat the Kings 120-106 but this game was much closer than the score shows. The Celtics closed this game out with a 32-18 4th quarter really putting the Kings away. The 4th quarter was powered by 14pts from White and 8 from JB but this was a game that was really controlled by our bench. Hauser and Simons both provided a huge scoring punch with 15pts and 14pts respectively and Garza even...

The Celtics beat the Jazz 129-119 improving to 20-12 on the season! Derrick White was phenomenal in this one leading the team with 27pts alongside a ridiculous 7 blocks!!! While JB did fall short on setting the new franchise record for consecutive 30+ pt games, he put together a great game with 23pts 6reb and 10ast. He wasn't forcing anything and was getting the team involved from start to fin...

The Celtics lose 114-108 to the Trail Blazers because of some costly turnovers and offensive rebounding. JB continued his stretch of 30+ pt performances tying Larry Bird for a franchise record 9 consecutive games and even passed Bill Sharman for 12th all time in franchise scoring but it was a bit over shadowed tonight by the turnovers down the stretch. Him and White were just not on the same page...

After a tough first quarter where the Celtics gave up 39pts after a 6-6 from 3 start from the Pacers, the Celtics calmed down and blew the doors off the Pacers 140-122. JB scored 30pts continuing his ridiculous run scoring 30+ in 8 straight games which is just 1 shy from tying Larry Bird all time. Hauser balled out hitting his first 7 3s. Pritchard scored 29pts and White scored 21! It may not have...

The Celtics beat the Pacers 103-95 in a Joe Mazzulla masterclass. Yes, this is a game that the Celtics should win BUT the Celtics did not come out playing well early. They found themselves down by as many as 20 and 3 minutes into the third quarter, Mazzulla pulled all of his starters and the bench goes OFF! They responded with a 10-2 run forcing a Pacers timeout and extended that run to 19-5 forci...

The Celtics beat the Raptors 112-96 without JB!!! Pritchard went off for 33pts alongside 8reb and 10ast!!! He had 19pts in the 3rd quarter and was truly unstoppable. In a game where JB isn't there to leave his mark, you need guys to step up and while Pritchard surely did, he wasn't along. This was one of the more impressive wins of the year because of the contributions we got off the bench...

The Celtics BEAT THE HEAT 129-116 after an impressive 4th quarter stretch with contributions from a lot of guys. Derrick White was Mr Consistent in this game and seemed to hit every big shot imaginable on his way to a 33pt 5reb 6ast game with 9 3pt makes!!! JB, while it was certainly a slow start with just 6pts in the first half, added another 30pt game which he has done in 12 of his last 13 games...

The Celtics lost to the Pistons 112-105 in another game that they could've/should've won. The Celtics started this game shooting 5-11 from 3 and ended the game shooting 10-39 so in quarters 2-4 they shot just 5-28 which is 17%. Derrick White and JB seemed to be the only 2 that could get any sort of consistent scoring going especially down the stretch. White led the team with 14 4th quarter...

The Celtics' 5 game win streak comes to an end after a true tale of two halves. They lost 116-101 after being up 67-60 in the first half. They scored 35 points in the first quarter and just 34 points in the entire second half.... They shot 15 for their last 54 which is just 27% and ended the game at 38.6% from the field which is their lowest of the year. JB and Walsh combined for 50 of the tea...

The Celtics beat the Raptors 121-113 and have moved into 3rd place in the Eastern Conference!!!! After an 0-3 start to this season, I don't think anybody expected this type of turnaround and certainly not this fast but here we are. I did say coming into this season that this team was going to be a lot of fun to watch but they probably weren't going to be much more than a .500 team. I was c...

The Lakers were without Luka, LeBron and Smart and it certainly showed as the Celtics steamrolled them 126-105. JB led the way again with 30pts 8reb and 8ast and his playmaking was on full display tonight. White hit some timely baskets and the Celtics got contributions up and down the lineup which was fun to watch. There were a ton of individual player performances to talk about but the majority o...

No JB, No Problem! Okay, yes it was the Wizards and yes they were injured but my goodness did this team show out. D White had a great game leading the way with 30pts 7reb and 9ast and looked like vintage D White which was a great sign and hopefully a sign of things to come. Jordan Walsh continued his brilliant play creating a new career high in pts with 22 to go alongside 7reb 2stl and a blk. Whil...

The Celtics pull off another crunch time win over the Knicks 123-117 and this was a rollercoaster through and through! The Celtics found themselves down big early after a brutal 32-21 1st quarter but put up two monster quarters after that due to a scorching hot JB who ended the game with 42pts including 18 in the 2nd and 15 in the 3rd! As impressive as he was for the majority of this game, I think...

The Celtics beat the Cavs 117-115 and Pritchard put on a show!!! Despite an immense amount of hate from some fans, he puts up 42pts on a crazy efficient 15-22 from the field and 6-11 from 3! There was nothing he couldn't do in this game. He finished at the rim, from deep and had a bunch of his midrange shots with 6 big FTs sprinkled in there as well. This really was a huge game for him. JB, wh...

The Celtics lost 119-115 to the Timberwolves despite a JB masterclass. JB led the way with 41pts 6reb 7ast and was efficient doing it shooting 53% from the field and 45% from 3. He also had a huge pullup 3 to tie the game at 110 capping a Celtics 12-0 run before the Timberwolves pulled away. This game was also one of the best Queta games we have seen in his career. Queta scored 19pts and added 18r...

WOWW!! The Celtics snap the Pistons 13 game win streak in a 117-114 thriller!! This game was back and forth the entire way and ended with a huge clutch time win with huge performances from White, JB and Baylor. Derrick White had a lackluster first half scoring just 2pts on 0-3 from the field but erupted for 25pts in the second half including 11 pts in the final 4:30. JB had a 33pt double double an...

The Boston Celtics put on an offensive clinic on November 23rd, defeating the Magic 138-129. The highlight was a spectacular second quarter where the team dropped a stunning 48 points on 78.3% shooting, building a massive 80-57 lead at the half. This performance was fueled by blistering pace, leading to 19 fast break points in the first half, and unselfish play, generating 20 assists on 31 made fi...
