As soon as Jason Maxiell missed both free throws after Kendrick Perkins’ flagrant foul — unsurprisingly Perk got tossed — you had the feeling it just wasn’t Detroit’s night. Oh and that alley-oop from Rondo to Garnett out of a timeout in the fourth quarter? Once again a thing of beauty… Make that 10 straight [...]
Ray Allen didn’t make the East All-Star team as a reserve despite shooting a career best 50.3 percent from the field and averaging 18 points per game so far this season. That’s more than a point better per game than reserve Jameer Nelson (16.9 ppg) by the way. Paul Pierce did get the call though. [...]
Damon Blust, who appeared at games as “Lucky the Leprechaun”, is no longer employed by the team. More on that here and here. While most fans over the age of 13 probably don’t care, little kids definitely got a kick out of him. A co-worker recently lamented that his son couldn’t find him at a [...]
Eddie House is on fire. He’s hit 22 treys over his past four games. That red, white and blue Money Ball would look pretty good in his hands in a few weeks.
Brian Scalabrine says he’ll be out for a week 10 days with a concussion. “I’m not really concerned,” he said. “I’m really not concerned.
