"What if I beg? Will that bring old
Tony back?" (Boston Globe Photo) Let’s hope so. I’m...
not sure what can be said about Tony Allen that hasnt’ been said. He’s getting $5 mil. over 2 years… and he’s either going to be a steal or a bona fide bust by the time the contract is over. I don’t see any real middle ground, because we’ve ...

Think of the Celtics like that cop-thing from
Terminator 2. Every time part of it goes away,...
the rest of it melts together to fill the gap. Paul Pierce hit the bench in the first quarter with three fouls, and Tony Allen checked in with 23 points on 11-16 shooting...

According to Danny Ainge, the Celtics have agreed
to terms with each on two-year contracts. Ainge would...
not be specific on the financial figures, but according to a source, both are being paid in the mid-$2 million range. In the case of House, the money is roughly half the mid-level exception of $5.585 million. The Celtics did not have to use the mid-level on Allen, because he has Bird Rights

play. Marvin Williams has about two feet on Rondo,...
why not just try and block the shot? Just a thought, but if you're going to foul you mind as well make it a good one.... Good lord that was just ...

I know the topic of "will we miss
James Posey?" has been beaten to death this year....
However, I just cannot let his return and ring presentation go without mention. So once more, lets address this topic. Personally, I find my answer depends on how you ask the question.

Pierce could have trouble going to his left (since...
you push off with your right). If I’m Vlad Radmanovic, I’m overplaying him and forcing him left right away to test him out. On Defense: The Celtics will probably want to avoid Pierce on Kobe in this game. It might mean more Posey… it might mean some Tony Allen. But if Pierce has any limitations...
