And the MVP is…Rajon Rondo
Posted on 10 May 2010 by johnw.
Right before my eyes, I’ve watched the birth of a superstar. Rajon Rondo entered the league as a rookie in 2006. Like all rookies, he had talent and potential, but it was clear he was special. There was something different about him. In four short years, Rondo has emerged from a kid learning how to play his position to an absolute superstar in the making. Rondo was given a difficult role on t...

Must Win for the Celtics
Posted on 3 May 2010 by johnw.
Celtics came out of the locker room ready to play in game 1. They had the perfect game plan. Be aggressive. But then the Celts let it all slip away in the second half. Cavs went on a run in the third quarter with Mo Williams providing the spark, and the Celtics didn’t have an answer. Lebron was great in the 4th quarter and finished with 35 points, including the dagger, a 3 pointer that stretc...

Springtime Means Playoffs For Boston
Posted on 30 Apr 2010 by johnw.
It’s springtime in Boston and that used to mean dust off the Varitek jersey, put on the ball cap, pink hat for the ladies, because its time for the Red Sox obsession to kick off for another season. Well, it’s officially spring and everyone still has their black and gold on mixed in with green and white. Boston is not just a baseball town anymore like it has been for the past decade. Bosto...

The Most Famous Elbow in the NBA
Posted on 20 Apr 2010 by johnw.
The elbow heard around the world. Kevin Garnett is suspended for tonight’s game for giving Quentin Richardson the People’s Elbow at the end of game 1. The ruckus occurred after KG “politely” asked the Heat players to give his teammate, Paul Pierce, some room to breathe. Pierce was laid out along the Heat bench after suffering what appeared to be a career ending shoulder injury. Miraculo...

Celtics Wake Up in the Second Half
Posted on 18 Apr 2010 by johnw.
The Boston Celtics were down by 14 points to the Miami Heat half way thru the 3rd quarter and I have to admit, I was worried. Things were looking bleak. But it was the play of Tony Allen that provided a spark for the Celtics and the team rallied. Defense wins championships and it was their defense that allowed them to get back in the game. Boston held the Heat to 32 points in the second half ...

Dennis Johnson to be Inducted into the Hall of Fame
Posted on 9 Apr 2010 by johnw.
“There's the steal by Bird. Underneath to DJ. He lays it in.” We all know the play. “The Steal” is one of the greatest plays in NBA history. It's a play we've all seen a million times. I don't care how many times I've seen it, it never gets old. It's still amazing. The Celtics were going to lose game 5 to the young, talented and may I add, hated, Detriot Pistons. The P...

Ladies and Gentleman, Mr. Paul Pierce
Posted on 26 Mar 2010 by johnw.
How many times has Tommy Heinsohn yelled the following statement in his life; “GIVE THE BALL TO PIERCE!” I’m thinking he said this phrase about 50 million times, just a rough estimate. Well right on Tommy, I second that notion. Give the ball to Pierce. The Celtics have been giving the ball to their Captain lately and they’re winning games. No coincidence. Celtics have won 5 out of their...

Celtics Gaining Momentum
Posted on 21 Mar 2010 by johnw.
After losing to the Cleveland Cavs to start the week, the Boston Celtics have won 4 straight, including two games in a row down in the Lone Star state. Last night, the Celtics battled the hottest team in the NBA, the Dallas Mavericks, and came out on top. A huge win for the C's. Boston showed a lot of grit yesterday. I was worried that they may come out flat after a tough win against Houston ...

Celtics All Over the Bobcats
Posted on 4 Mar 2010 by johnw.
For the first time all season, the Celtics had their full roster healthy. It's hard to believe, but what a difference it made in tonight's game. The Celtics hosted the Charlotte Bobcats at home. After getting smoked in the second half against the Cavaliers last week and then embarrassed by the lowly Nets, the Celtics were at an all time low for the season. They bounced back on the road in Det...

You Can’t Do That on Television
Posted on 26 Feb 2010 by johnw.
Welcome to the world of political correctness. It's a world where everybody has to think twice about what they say on TV or the radio or in the written media. Two great examples of how out of control the PC Police have become are Tony Kornheiser and Mike Milbury. Mike Milbury is under hot water for comments he made after the disappointing Russia-Canada hockey match where Canada blew out t...

Robinson is Officially a Celtic
Posted on 18 Feb 2010 by johnw.
The Celtics and Knicks have officially agreed to a deal that will send Nate Robinson and Marcus Landry to Boston in exchange for Eddie House, Bill Walker, and J.R. Giddens. Robinson was brought in to be the back up to Rajon Rondo and provide some needed offense coming off the bench. This is a solid move by Danny Ainge. I was hoping for a blockbuster deal involving Ray Allen for an offensive for...

Possible Blockbuster Trade: Ray Allen for Antawn Jamison & Caron Butler
Posted on 12 Feb 2010 by johnw.
When I woke up this morning, I was fully prepared to write an article on why the Celtics should keep Ray Allen for the remainder of 2009 season. I felt this way until I read Yahoo Sports' Adrian Wojnarowski's report on possible trade talks between the Boston Celtics and Washington Wizards. A league source told Yahoo Sports, the Celtics would send Ray Allen, Brian Scalabrine, & ...
