CELTICS RUMORS & GOSSIP

Stephen A Smith Stirring Things Up Yet Again

We all know that Stephen A  Smith loves the sound of his own voice.   First we had Stephen A predicting a trade of KG, Paul Pierce AND Doc to the Clippers.  Um.  I'm trying to remember the last time a coach was traded.  None come to mind.  Of course he probably meant that the Clippers would trade for KG and the Captain with the assurance that Doc would leave the Celtics...

What do we do with… Brandon Bass?

Ainge Making Decisions With One Hand Tied Behind His Back

or "We don't know where we're going, but we're making good time." I am amazed not to have seen any discussion of the terrible handicap under which Danny Ainge is working.  Ainge finds himself facing an off-season that proffers wildly disparate outcomes ranging from adding one rookie to the fourteen players now under contract, to turning over the majority...

Source: Paul Pierce’s family preparing to relocate

The Globe’s Gary Washburn has an “update” on Paul Pierce’s situation: The Celtics have to decide by June 30 whether to buy out Pierce’s contract at $5 million. Ainge said the sides have not had discussions, but an NBA source said Pierce’s family is already beginning to prepare for relocation from Boston, assuming the Celtics will execute the buyout or trade his expiring...

Jimmy Kimmel gives Jason Collins’ twin an ‘I’m the straight one’ t-shirt

Jimmy Kimmel poked a little good natured fun on Wednesday night’s show with former NBA player Jason Collins, who as we know recently came out, and his twin brother Jarron. It couldn’t have come at a better time apparently, as Jarron noted earlier that someone approached him asking if he was Jarron or “the gay one.” He sent this tweet out after the show: “Thanks to @jimmykimmel...

Doc Rivers’ Return as Celtics Coach Does Little to Clear Up Other Questions Surrounding Team

Doc Rivers will be back on the bench for the Celtics next season. That means, at the very least, that Kevin Garnett‘s departure from Boston is not utterly assured. Any Celtics fan looking for a deeper silver lining to this news, however, will be disappointed. Rivers will remain, giving the Celtics a decided tactical advantage on a solid three-quarters of their opponents in the...

Report: Doc Rivers returning to the Celtics next season

From Gary Washburn's twitter, Danny Ainge confirms that Doc Rivers is returning next season as #celtics coach. "We've got a coach everybody would love to have." — gary washburn (@GwashNBAGlobe) May 16, 2013 I'll be perfectly honest, nothing in Ainge's quote that Washburn selected screams, "Doc is coming back", but the rest of his tweet, and...

  With the NBA finals scheduled four weeks ahead, a lot of action can be seen in both the conferences about the teams that are going to make it to the final dance.

Exploring the Celtics Trade Options for Paul Pierce

  The ESPN Trade Machine is a fun way to waste a Wednesday night. Danny Ainge has a multi-tiered mission ahead of him this offseason as he looks to either retool a contender on its (last) (double last) triple last leg or cash in on the reduced yet still prominent value of Paul Pierce’s in flux contract. Let’s play some trade machine and see if there’s a mutually attractive...

Video: Boston Celtics 2012-2013 Bloopers and Funny Moments

I was hard pressed to find a lot of funny moments for the Boston Celtics' blooper reel this season without our past team clowns like Big Baby, Nate Robinson, Shaq, and Mickael Pietrus. But there were a fair share of silly moments that included both Celtics newcomers and vets. This year's video includes appearances from NBA vets like Paul Pierce nearly losing his shorts while...
