Celtics Swat the Hornets To a Huge Victory

      Talk about a total drubbing... Cs go into Charlotte and destroy them. If your and NBA Cup fan then this ones for you! Cs lead their prospective group in the Cup standings. Jayson Tatum led the Cs with 34 points. He's been on a tear this season and I'm all for it. This team is now second in the East right behind the loaded Sixers. I don't put stock in the regular season but still pretty impressive given the Sixers roster. It truly shows how incredible Jayson Tatum is as a basketball player.       Derrick White and Payton Pritchard were the only other guys in double figures. Everyone who played scored except for Mike Conley. Overall these Cs handled their business and did it with style. Celtics next game will be Sunday in Milwaukee. Let's hope if they build a huge lead they can maintain it. Honestly they should roll the Bucks. The key will be playing hard for the entire 48 minutes.

No JT but.... Cs find their way to a victory

      The Cs will be without JT tonight, but everyone is here to play. Who will step up in his absence? I see PG13, PPritch, and DWhite having quality games. If they push the pace of play and move the ball I feel we win. This will be the final home game in quite a while. Let's hope we go out with a bang! Time for big Mitch to get himself right. Sam Hauser should be a guy that steps up tonight. It would be a good game for him to knock down about five threes. We are moments away from tip off.       Sam comes out in the first and nails a few threes! He has such a pretty stroke and when it's on watch out. This Celtics team forces about 18 points a game. Much better than what they did last year. PG13 in this first is very involved on the offensive end. His offense is extremely smooth. What's great about him this season is his defensive IQ. He takes that and shows it on a nightly basis with the plays he makes. I've never truly watched him on D but man he's g...

Win Streak Over as the Rockets Take Off

       Today I will be touching upon the past three games. It's been a busy few days for me as my daughter's youth soccer team won the fall championship. In Friday's Cup game we saw the Cs lay a huge hammer to the Bulls in that first half. For a while there I thought we would win the game by 50! Unfortunately that third quarter was lacking and the Cs let go of that huge lead. At the end of the day though they pulled out the win. PP was spectacular scoring 30 points while JT and PG13 played very well. I don't care for the Cup games but sometimes you need small goals in a long season.       Sunday in Orlando was another example of a team win. When big plays were needed JT and PG13 led the way. Tatum to me this season seems so comfortable and confident in his game. I would say he must feel just about fully healed from that horrendous injury in the playoffs. PG13 even looks spry and reinvigorated to be a Boston Celtic. Queta continues to show he may b...

Paul George solidifying role as Celtics second option

For those still looking for ways to criticize Brad Stevens for trading for Paul George , you will need to do a deep search. PG-13 may lead his team in turnovers and fouls , but Boston is now 5-1 to start the season. George does everything else on the court very well - scoring (20.7 PPG), rebounding (6.0 RPG), assists (5.0 APG) and steals (2.3 SPG) . He is looking healthy and playing like he has been with "The Green" for years. Paul George in today's win at Orlando: 17 PTS, 6 REB, 8 AST, 2 STL, 2 BLK Really doing it ALL for the Celtics ☘️ https://t.co/qG1SmEGJ4B — Tomek Kordylewski (@Timi_093) November 2, 2026 Joe Mazzulla seems to be focused on defense when choosing his starting unit, and I doubt there was much decision making as to PG-13 starting  Jayson Tatum is well aware of his front-court partner's defensive prowess. Jayson Tatum speaks post game on playing alongside Paul George: “His awareness on the defensive end and his activity with his hands is just n...

Brooklyn in Boston

       Tonight we see the lowly Brooklyn Nets enter the Boston Garden. I want to see this team build off these last few wins. How cool is it that Allen Iverson said Payton Pritchard is the coldest white boy ever! Talk about high praise from a Hall of Famer. Oh and I shook hands with that Hall of Famer during Enshrinement. Interesting news in tonight's game everyone will be playing in this back to back. That's a good sign from a group of guys who want to play this beautiful game of basketball.       Mitchell Robinson is truly an elite rebounder and knows where to position his body.  He makes plays for a big that are unexpected. That one where he catches the ball midair was totally awesome. He's very nimble and quick for a big! He even has some shake on the offensive end as he spins and gets to the hoop for a foul. If he's able to stay healthy this season he's gonna have a career year. Dude is just a solid player overall and does his job. I lov...

Paul George having a solid start with Celtics

 In the Boston Celtics first three games, newly-acquired Paul George is off to a nice start. He comes in second to Jayson Tatum in: Minutes - 29.7 MPG Points - 23.0 PPG Field goals attempted - 16.7 FGA Free throw percentage - 83.3 % FT PG13 also leads his team in steals at 2.3 thefts per game . He is hitting a respectable 46% from the field while canning 50% of his 3-pointers .Unfortunately, George also trails only Derrick White in turnovers at 2.7 miscues per contest.  Most NBA analysts projected PG13's performance with "The Green" as "Past Great" , and that was expected. But thus far, he has become indispensible for Boston at both ends of the court. Not bad for a guy past his prime.
