Posted on July 12, 2013 at 5:00 AM Comments comments (0)



In the shadows for years. The stage light  was slightly missing his feet. Rondo will finally come out  of the shadows to see what is ahead of him on the biggest stage possible.Rondo's stage is the main stage. He's become the lone star on a team that has been contending for titles for more than half a decade. Everyo...

Celtics Morning Joe: Bass Finally Comes Out Of Hiding

Posted on July 11, 2013 at 5:00 AM Comments comments (6)


Who could forget when Bass was the ultimate steal from Ainge when the Celtics and Magic pulled off a sign-and-trade for Bass and Baby. I think that was move Howard wanted when he still ran the team in my Orlando. Bass's first season with the Celtics earned him a decent sized contract that inked him for three seasons worth more than 6 million each season,but near th...

Celtics Morning Joe: CAUTION! Take it easy on the Olynyk hype

Posted on July 10, 2013 at 5:00 AM Comments comments (4)


Olynyk is the summer leagues Dirk. When it comes to the real games? We must show the kid some patience. Without question his offensive skill set has been lovely to see.His fall away jumper, his three, and his court vision has been on point.If we get this someday out of him, then Danny should be studied by modern science for time travel....

Celtics Morning Joe: Larry Bird Praises Pierce, Garnett along with Ainge

Posted on July 9, 2013 at 5:00 AM Comments comments (3)



Bird luckily retired as a Celtic. He never put on any other NBA uniform. Danny was able to make Pierce and KG happy by sending them to a team that has a chance to win now, and Doc also. Ainge in the process put the Celtics in a good spot for the future, and in the now. 

Bird th...

Celtics Morning Joe: Maxwell approves of Stevens hire

Posted on July 8, 2013 at 5:00 AM Comments comments (3)



Many will be skeptical about Stevens until he proves he belongs. I think it's a good outside the box move, and I still have doubts, but I believe what Max is saying about Stevens. I think his youth is more of a strength then a weakness. Doc is in his 50's, and I don't know if he had the energy for this,and I would have to sa...

Celtics Morning Joe: Wyc confident,and has faith in evolution

 We will endure the long cold frozen winter. We  will  also endure a basketball season that isn't very predictable. The Celtics for the past 5 or 6 seasons have been in the mix for a NBA championship. All of you know the resume of the past 6 years, so I'll leave it at that. Our pain is our o...

Celtics Morning Joe: What should are expectations be in year one with Stevens?

Posted on July 6, 2013 at 5:00 AM Comments comments (2)


When Brad Stevens walked into his first press conference with the Boston Celtics. The banners started to speak to him. It's hard to miss 17 championship banners above your head, and who could forget the spot where banner 18 was supposed to go. Instead of an empty spot with a spotlight signaling the new banner that was destined to happen...

Celtics Morning Joe: A new voice for Rondo

Posted on July 4, 2013 at 5:00 AM Comments comments (8)



A quest in question is questionable at best. With no facts to base failure on it's hard to place anyone's job on the line. The hiring of Stevens doesn't signal the end of Rondo. But perhaps a new beginning that has been long overdue. A new captain will rise in Boston if you like or not. Many fear that Rond...

Celtics Morning Joe: Rajon Rondo wants Josh Smith here now

Posted on July 1, 2013 at 3:25 AM Comments comments (4)



Rondo without a doubt doesn't want a rebuild. He hasn't pulled a Doc Rivers and asked for a trade yet, but Danny Ainge may need to consider Rondo on this rebuild. At this point, I don't blame Rondo for not wanting a rebuild. Were not talking about a 24 year old Rondo. This an All-Star starting po...

Celtics Morning Joe: Endless thougts on KG and Pierce

Posted on June 29, 2013 at 5:00 AM Comments comments (5)




How eager are the children as they look up into the sky. All of us have been there reacting to the theater of sound, color and light. A euphoria of expectation. The expectations for Paul Pierce to obtain in Boston were high. But year after year he was the comfortable player that we all latched onto. E...

Celtics Morning Joe: Pierce is the hardest to say goodbye to

Posted on June 28, 2013 at 5:00 AM Comments comments (7)





The day was going to come. We didn't know when or how, but the day was slowly creeping in. That day happened June 27th, 2013. The Boston Celtics ended the Pierce era quick, and with minimal warning. We knew for sometime that Doc was gone, but the idea of Pierce out of here wasn't much of a reality unt...

Celtics Morning Joe: Danny has a spring in his step

Posted on June 27, 2013 at 5:00 AM Comments comments (3)



It sounds like Danny is thrilled this Doc mess is over. It allows him to continue with his job. The Celtics are in change mode,or a reshaping of the roster. I won't call this a full blown rebuild. But I think it's clear Danny and Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck want to lower our expectations going into the 2013-14 season. As the...

Celtics Morning Joe: Thoughts on Doc departure (Part 2)

My feelings about Doc are still fresh. I may need a part 3, or part 4 to get a better understanding. This morning I wanted to go into the Doc vs Ray debate. Who's departure hurt the most for you, and who's departure was worse? Personally Ray's departure has hurt the most for me. I fel...

Celtics Morning Joe: Thoughts on Doc departure (Part 1)

Posted on June 24, 2013 at 4:00 AM Comments comments (8)



Everywhere I looked yesterday I saw fans saying thank you to Doc, as they should. But make no mistake about it. Doc's exit was very uncharacteristic of what he was in Boston. He was a coach that players wanted to play for, and he was a coach that motivated every single guy someway, somehow. I also gathered that many folks out there really accepted Doc's...

Celtics Morning Joe: KG may stay put in Boston, despite Rivers future

Posted on June 23, 2013 at 5:00 AM Comments comments (4)



I'm still not able to relinquish the thought in my mind that KG wants out of Boston. From all the Doc turmoil very little has been said about KG and Pierce. Just that the Celtics will either trade KG or buyout Paul's final year worth 15 million. It's also been said that both would like to follow Doc, but how much of that is ...
