Sorry, I had to leave my seat because the Celtics had a “private” walk-through from 6 to 6:30 p.m. Using my Matt Walsh skills I noticed the Celtics worked on a lot of defense. My guess is it won’t help the Pistons that much. And I promise I didn’t tape it. As for the game, [...]

If you have anything you want to discuss before or during tonight’s Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals, leave a comment or question. I will have some pregame notes and thoughts as well. I will be at the Garden at about 6:15 p.m.
Nothing has changed, in my humble opinion. This series is going seven games because, well, it has to. These are two evenly matched teams. Both play probably the best defense in the league. And both have key players who can score during crunch time. Last night’s game was a classic, other than a few too [...]
If you have any thoughts, comments or questions about the Celts-Pistons Game 2 tonight at the Garden send them along. I will have some updates before the game and at halftime. Talk to you tonight.
The Celtics will not be favored, but then again, they’ve been in that position for much of this past winter. They are being doubted again, and frankly, I can’t blame the prognosticators or Las Vegas bookmakers. But the Celtics have played their best when they had to. As Doc Rivers said, their wins in Game [...]
The Big Three, right now, is the Big Two. Ray Allen has barely played a bit role since midway through the Atlanta series. The four points he scored in Game 7 last night was indicative of the last two-plus weeks. He can’t get open. Why? Is the problem the Celtics don’t really have a low-post [...]
I open with a prediction. I believe the Celtics win tonight, finally on the road. I believe Wednesday night’s game was a coming out party for Rajon Rondo. He needs to create more on offense and keep the ball moving. If he makes the open jumpers, that’s an added bonus. I’m here if you have [...]

I will be here from 2 to 4 to talk about the Celtics playoffs. I have a story in today’s Eagle-Tribune about Matt Walsh. Talk to you soon.
This is a loaded question. It feels as if the Cavs, especially with LeBron James, are winning the series at 2-2. One thing we should realize is it’s not going to be easy. The Cavs are not intimidated by the Celtics one bit, which was exactly the the problem with the Atlanta Hawks. So now [...]
I have two words that best describe the Cleveland Cavaliers resurgence in Cleveland for Game 3 of their series with the Celtics: Delonte West. I have two words for the Celtics that would best eliminate that Game 3 force: Rajon Rondo. It’s hard to ask a 22-year-old NBA kid to take over a series, game [...]
