Epic Disaster...

      What in the world is going on with the Celtics... if they were all in on Giannis then why not seal the deal! Right now we could lose JB for 40 cents on the dollar. If you are going to dangle a future Hall of Famer in a trade then get it done now the Celtics are in a stage of Flux. Where is this all stemming from? Is Billionaire Bill cheating out? Are we in a rebuild? Is there a player and or players that better compliment JT? I'm calling Denver right now and seeing what it takes for Jokic. I'm dead serious folks him and JT would be unreal.       We are a few hours away from free agency and this team has no true direction. Like we are lost at seas with a boat and no paddle. I trust Brad whole heartedly but Bill is ruining our beloved Celtics. He doesn't want to win he just wants to make money and that sickens this writer and I don't care who knows it! Realistically what can be done to keep JB in Boston I would say a 2 year 140 million dollar exten...

Celtics media "fantasy" season mercifully almost over

 The media has pegged the Celtics Brad Stevens as willing to trade everyone except his close family members over the past several weeks. That won't end entirely, but the furor should subside . NBA analysts, whether pro or amateur, have as much chance at predicting Stevens' future transactions as a "snowball in Hell" . He is smart , but he is also clever enough to obscure his plans until they come to fruition. At 6:00 PM ET this evening , NBA teams can start negotiations with free agents from other teams, and actual signings can begin on July 6th . Most GMs have already talked with ttheir own free agents. Just as "everything is for sale at the right price" , League players are always facing possible trades . It is a general manager's job to try to keep their individual teams in the fight for a Title, and that certainly holds true for Boston sports teams, particularly for the Celtics, winners of 18 Championship trophies. And many Celtics fans have a st...

Celtics go for size and potential with 27th pick

 The Boston Celtics went with Chris Cenac, Jr. with the 27th pick in the 2026 NBA draft. He is listed as a power forward/center out of Houston - at 6'11" and 240 pounds. His wingspan is a massive 7'5". Chris is 19 years old and won't turn 20 until February. Brad Stevens needed to add more size to his roster, but it is doubtful if Cenac, Jr. will contribute right away. He remains a work in progress< Chris Cenac Jr: 6'10 (barefoot), 240lbs / 7'5 wingspan, 9'0.5" standing reach Pre-Draft Analysis from ESPN: Strengths: Cenac has excellent length, moves fluidly for his size and has made strides as a rebounder. He has also flashed natural shooting touch, giving him an… pic.twitter.com/3lpQp8MK1S — ThrowbackPATS (@ThrowbackPATS) June 24, 2026 The Houston product's college numbers don't stand out - with averages of 9.5 points and 7.9 rebounds per game, but the word out there is that the kid is "fluid" , particularly for someone...

Brad Stevens not going for "Quick Fix" in trade talks

 The Milwaukee Bucks ended up reportedly sending Giannis Antetokounmpo to the Miami Heat. Rumors are that the Celtics' Brad Stevens was unwilling to deal away Hugo Gonzalez and/or Baylor Scheierman, in addition to Jaylen Brown . As usual, Stevens sees the whole picture and is looking to the foreseeable future - as well as the coming season.  Brad did not capture the Exec-of-the-Year without a solid basis for the award. The Boston Celtics may be the most-successful franchise in sports history, and he fits Boston like a glove. Miami was looking for the best deal possible, and that apparently included acquiring a couple of talented young guys from the Boston ranks. Boston didn’t want to give up Hugo Gonzalez AND Baylor Scheierman on top of Jaylen Brown & two first-round picks they offered to Milwaukee.

Breaking: Giannis Antetokounmpo reportedly heading to Miami

  Pat Riley got his wish. Giannis Antetokounmpo will reportedly join Bam Adebayo in Miami, with the Bucks'  Tyler Herro, Jaime Jaquez and Kel'el Ware ending up in Milwaukee. . "The Celtics were not willing to part with enough young players and assets to get a deal done." @ShamsCharania says Boston offered Jaylen Brown and two first-round picks for Giannis Antetokounmpo before he was traded to Miami 👀 pic.twitter.com/WvGCveMwjE — NBA on ESPN (@ESPNNBA) June 23, 2026 So the drama centered around "The Greek Freak"  possibly going to the Boston Celtics has ended, Celtics fans can be assured that Brad Stevens is not done constructing his 2026-27 squad. Granted, Giannis remains a top-tier talent in the NBA, but less-radical moves may be in store for perhaps the most-storied  franchise in sports history. In the end, Pat Riley apparently has assembled a potent front-court duo in "The Freak" and Bam, but a few questions remain about Giannis' age,...

Two more White Mountain rescue operations by New Hampshire Fish and Game

 It never stops ! Despite the many warnings, unprepared hikers in the White Mountains of New Hampshire continue to get lost, cold, wet and immersed in darkness without a flashlight. NH Fish and Game and other rescuers were forced to hit the trails of Mt. Lafayette on two separate missions on the evening of June 19, 2026. One of the rescued hikers was hypothermic and unconscious when located, and a volunteer from a rescue squad suffered a serious injury during the operation. When will this end ? The many rescues and body recoveries are almost always preventable when responsible hikers prepare for weather variables such as wind, rain, snow, darkness and colder temperatures as they climb to the peaks.
