What's up with the wizznutzz message board? Can we take our good time there with a permanent doom thread?
It's a sad commentary to say that I've gotten more enjoyment out of watching Will Roberts make an ass of himself than following the team. Doc's rotations are like snowflakes: no two are alike and I'm already investing all my hopes in a high lottery pick next year. In fact, I agree with you, Dr. let's have a fire sale, clean house, and see if we can get multiple lottery picks in the upcoming draft. Twenty years of misery is more than enough, we have a shot at getting some real help with a couple of top ten picks, trade Pierce, trade Wally, and let's build a team that can win it all for years to come.
Psychological/physical profile of Will Roberts: Single caucasian male, age 30. An already balding endomorph. Still lives with his parents, tried it on his own once with disastrous consequences. Occupation: day shift line manager at Wendys. Still a virgin, his reference to bloggers of this site as cunts showing an unfamiliarity with this term. A serial masturbater, takes matters into his own hands thrice daily. Inflated sense of self worth, as evidenced by his initial revelation that two minutes of his time has great value, then invests great quantities of time in spamming. If an army of Will Roberts had defended the Alamo, we'd all be speaking Spanish right now. The type of guy that sticks his finger up his ass, and then asks anybody that will listen to him to take a sniff of the hot date he had last night. He and the Old Bag deserve each other.
LOL, welcome to my world - you know you've hit the big time when people start attacking you
The Web is full of morons who believe that Ainge is an underappreciated genius and that the rebuilding project will be an unadultereated success if folks will just wait a decade or so for all the kids to develop into Hall of Famers.
Hard to pin it down to Gant.
Due to popular demand and such an accurate psychological profile.....I have returned!!!
I think it's funny that this blog has finally managed to answer an age old question once and for all: Who is the biggest douchebag in the world with the smallest cock alive?
I mean, Will, I know you think this 33 win team + Telfair is destined for great things, but seriously, you've spent damn near 6 hours spamming Chestnut's blog in the past week. Eat a dick, grow up.
As for the team, everything is the same as it has been since Pitino. We're looking at the 10th fucking pick for the what seems like the 10th fucking year in a row. 5 of the first 7 December games are on the road, and hopefully the loses pile up and the team's collective spirit is crushed enough for them to cruise to a top 3 pick.
Your mother must be proud...
I agree with EJ. Little has changed since the Pitino era. However, the Celts are in first place in the Atlantis Division. Whoohoo! Make room for banner #17.
Is it time to panic yet? Is everyone in the Atlantic Division tanking it? Could we end up with a losing record and out of the lottery? The worst of all worlds.
Interesting thought, boilpopper. I hadn't considered that the others teams could be tanking too. Imagine if the Nets, who already have Kidd, Carter, and Jefferson, get another top pick. This whole season could amount to a race to the bottom, a race the Celts are somehow, inexplicably, losing, even though I thought they were a lock.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
I don't think the Nets are tanking though, they've had a bit of a tough road schedule.
myassholestnx, as always, you are RIGHT ON.
Willie, anon, BP - Philly should be in the race to the bottom as well. As much as that Gasol rumor seemed Celtics front-office driven, perhaps Jerry West is of the mind to rebuild entirely, win the lottery, obtain another low lottery pick, and go into the next five years with Oden/Gay and whoever he can grab after #1 as his core. As much as I like Gasol, it's not a terrible idea for them.
Interesting how Delonte has gone from untradeable to "most likely to be moved" in 13 games. I'll be shocked if he, our #1 and Jefferson are still all the team by the trading deadline.
We're actually favored over the Nets tonight in USA Today by 2 1/2 points. I'm confused.
Hey, Will.
Are you that dumb fuck that posts under the name Wigglestrue on CelticsBlog and Real GM?
He seems like the leading candidate for the pus-brained simpleton who's been spamming this blog.
Doc, just get yourself a geek to trace this fool and then nail him.
Will Roberts, if I see you on the street, I'm gonna kick the shit out of you.
Don't get me wrong, I understand the concept of a 2 for 1, but what the hell was that? 33 seconds left so you take a shot two feet behind the 3-point line while running full speed to your left?
Then on the final possession, down 3, Pierce drives, inexplicably throws the ball over the backboard - somehow it ends up in Perkins' hands who passes to Szczerbiak with about 5 seconds left and what does he do - DRIVES instead of taking the three.
If that game wasn't thrown, at least on the final two possessions, then I think the problem is that our players are just stupid.
On the other hand I loved Telfair's move on Kidd where he drove in and spun back to the foul line for a jumper. However, it seemed to really piss Kidd off as I think he had about 10 points in the next 3 minutes. It was like watching John Starks hit a couple first quarter jumpers in a row on Jordan and then start jumping up and down like he was up 15 with 2 minutes to go in game 7 - only to see Mike answer with somewhere between 40-60 points.
Also a few years back, any chance a team would look to exploit a Wally on Kidd matchup? Looks like Kidd just isn't quite the same these days. Still better than anyone we've got, but not the same as he was.
Anyway, Celts are back in a four-way tie for the 5th worst record in the league, and are also 1/2 game out of being the #3 seed. Crazy, crazy year.
Pierce fucks up the last two plays, and 61% of celtsblog think we lose close games at the end because of coaching.
Pierce friggin sucks. I don't care if it's throwing passes into the post directly to the other team, launching ill-advised 3s that bounce over the backboard and then laughing about it on the way back down the court, or simply looking like a jackass with that stupid headband he wears. He just sucks. that's my opinion. $20 million per year for this.
Ainge has 4/5ths of the payroll tied up in Pierce, Wally, Scalabrine and Ratliff.
You're doing a heckuva job Danny.
Total chaos at the end of the game. I'm still surprised it was so close. The Nets suck too.
Hey, just so you all know I ran will roberts paragraphs through a translater and it was a lengthy story about a circle jerk he took part in while in college. The big culmination was a wicked game of ookie cookie where his "roomate" was the loser and had to take down the man seed.
I'm actually suprised you've had this much time to spam the blog. Considering the amount of time it takes to get out of you normal position (on your back face over the edge of the bed mouth open), to a computer and then to actually put must put a serious hinderance on your business in the world of man face fucking.
Seriously. grow the fuck up and stop wasting our time you jabroni.
Rondo buried! Marcus Williams the true draft steal and Jerky creams his UConn sweat pants.
Also, our starting power forward has more assists than our starting point guard. Paul Pierce is Mr. Clutch only in the way we call bald men "curly." Can't wait to head back east and actually watch this crap. At least Greg Oden is getting into the spirit by sitting out with a wrist injury. He'll fit in well.
Great night all around, former UConn standout has a solid game (he's lost weight and added three point range), Rondo can't find the court because he can't find his shot, and Pierce fucks everything up at the end.
Banner night for the CelticsDoomIsRight movement.
You know what now bothers me about the Celtics (a very long list, indeed), is the total lack of good college players. As a big college b-ball fan, it sucks that the Celtics only have one player who I followed and liked in college, Gomes. The only other player who was fun to watch in college was Wally, but only in the look-at-the-white-guy-at-the-small-school-play-
well.
For instance, I watch the Bobcats, with Okofer, Morrison and even May, and I can’t help but like them. There’s something rewarding about liking a player in college, and watching him develop in the NBA. Much more so than a high schooler fumbling around for a couple years.
Yeah, the college guys are generally winners too. It's why Gomes, who thus far has to be the biggest bright spot of the season, seems like the only young big man with a clue.
Jerky, you'd be shocked to know that I've taken a liking to college football. It's my new Saturday thing.
Hell, we all need other distractions instead of investing ourselves too deeply in this team. What a hearbreaker! Has there ever been an NBA team that could not even get a shot off with 17 seconds left to go in the game. Dr., you have college football, Will Roberts has impersonating an ass, and I have tittyfucking, oh, the joys of diversification.
First of all, my name really isn't Chris Rocker, if anyone was wondering. Secondly, I get more chuckles out of reading through one thread here than I do over the gazillions of posts at Celtics blog. Celtics blog is pretty much annoying me right now because of the relentlessly upbeat, 1984 mentaility that pervades over there, even as they call for Docs head. I HATE CELTICS BLOG!!! there, I said it. Whoo, I feel better.
tittyfuck, if only you could tittyfuck Will Roberts, then we'd have all our bases covered. But don't diversify away from this blog, we'd be lost without you.
Welcome Mr.Rocker. We are the land of misfit posters and hapless spam victims. I love Celticsblog, but we tend to embody the yin/yang of Celtics fans, which continues with Jeff's revelation that he's a big Studio 60 fan, whereas I am a 30 Rock fan. But anyway, welcome to our infrequently updated home.
Gee, great choice tonight. Another three hour migraine with Coc and company, or an early beddy-by with the Old Bag. Shame I don't have a third choice, like waterboarding or such. Last night the Old Bag said to me that the first time we were "together" I couldn't wait to get her socks off. I said to her "Tonight, you'll have time to knit yourself a pair."
Doc,
Heh - I don't really hate Celts blog. I'm just mad that someone over there called me a "pinhead" of all things for saying Pierce was a ballhog. Anyway, I just called his mama a slut (o.k. a slob - I didn't want to get censored) and left it at that. Jeff does a great job over there it's it's amazing how much material gets cranked out. But, it's "different" over here. Anyway, keep "up" the good work 
Chris
thanks CR. Don't censor yrself, I don't care if people rip Celticsblog. Someone there once called me "the biggest idiot on the internet," so I hear you. I just happen to think Jeff is one of the nicer people on the planet, and I try to distinguish between him and the morons who post on his site. But that's just me. I don't care what anyone says here, who they rip on (myself included), what they call people out on, etc, etc, as long as it's not hundreds of spam entries.
As for Pierce being a ballhog, you're goddamn fucking right about that.
Myassholestnx, we need the old bag to infiltrate the dance squad so all of your miseries will be combined.
this is my expression of disgust with the Celtics....thank's for providing such a fantastic medium for me to be able to do this! It's really helping!

No kidding? I wonder why they would say something like that...
Ok, I'm ready to admit I underestimated Doc and Danny. Here I thought these two bumbling idiots didn't have plan to take this team to the next level (which would be one rung from the bottom) and then...and then...Pierce starts rubbing his elbow. Brilliant! Pierce is going to take a season ending elbow injury! That'll leave the Celts with, I predict, about a 7-75 season (they'll still probably beat the knicks a couple times) and a great chance for a top pick. Way to go, Doc and Danny, the Laurel and Hardy of the NBA!
Anyhow, for the time being, credit where credit is due: the Celts are almost as good as the Raptors.
Coc and Danny, that pair, don't they remind you
Of a modern day Laurel and Hardy
Who in the world would have guessed we'd have longed
For the days of Obie and McCarty
"Wait till next year", those magical words
Giving the C's fans a reason
To hang in again, as we surrender this year
Fifteen games into the season
I mean, isn't it worth the price of admission
To see Scalabrine more
Than Gerald or Al or the other C's 'youngs'
That have to "earn" their way onto the floor
Now this site AND c-blog are united
In calling for Coc Rivers head
As if this circumcision by itself
Can bring the Celtic team back from the dead
There comes a time in every man's life
When he has to look himself square in the face
It's beyond time for the Celtics to look in that mirror
Or get used to enjoying last place
No more quick fixes with the latest white stiff
And a coach who hasn't a clue
No more cosmetic surgery
A major operation is long overdue
Trade Pierce and Wally, get a new coach
And hope the ping pong balls fall our way
With our youngs, Durant, and Oden
At long last, the dawn of a new day
We can post about how great the team looked
And take pride in the C's shirts we've donned
This all must take place this season
Or else we've had another year of being lepra"conned".
Tittyfuck, that's fucking beautiful. You have once again shown why, despite spammers and relative obscurity, this is the best Celtics blog.
Will Roberts struck again and I accidentally deleted a couple real posts. I think Boilpopper's and one of mine. Sorry BP.
agree, agree, agree on the absence of college players making the C's just about unwatchable....I'm pretty sure the collective IQ of Perk, Big Al, and Gerald wouldn't get you into a college PE program, and it shows on repeated missed defensive assignments (Al), mindless fouls, (Perk), and the total inablility to run plays and carry the ball on every possesion (Gerald) unless the play is to stand around the perimeter waiting for a pass. amazing that the knicks, cats and raptors all look polished and, this hurts, intelligent, when playing us.
ouch.
oh, by the way, ten wins looking pretty good bet right now
You're right, ten wins. I'll add that while the knock on Perk has been his stupid fouls, right now Perk just ain't getting it done, regardless of fouls. He's averaging less than 5 points and 6 rebounds while starting every game, and he's only getting 3.5 fouls per game. It may be possible that Perk just plain sucks. But, according to Danny's (PR) strategy, we can't expect him to be good until he is good.
At some point, youth and inexperience has to stop being used as an excuse for being a bunch of losers. Alas, it apears that my dream of seeing at least one of the young guys assert themselves as a valuable asset to the team will not be realized this season.
Just another wasted, losing season. Currently tied for the 5th worst record in the league. Let's tank!!
Hoopshype reports that Wyc sent a reporter named Sam Smith an unsolicited e-mail that says unequivically that Paul Pierce will not be traded. We apparently won't even explore what could be had for Pierce. Incompetence from top to bottom in this organization, a fish rots from the head down. So, let's build a running team around the non-running Pierce, as he ballhogs at the end of every close game. Don't take a chance at getting a franchise player like Oden or Durant in the upcoming draft. Fuck Wyc, Danny, and Coc, stay the course, we are intercoursed.
This team is even below the dignity of Celtics Doom.
Assplowed again.
But God, our kids have great potential.
Stay the course!!!!!!!!!
Ahhh, bullshit.
This team can't be bothered to defend the pick and roll, but they're going all out to defend Scalabrine. Did we make him cry by booing him or something?
Give me $3M a year for doing nothing, and I'll give you my home address so you can come over and boo the fuck out of me whenever you want.
You'd think the front office and coaches would be spending more time trying to figure a way out of the mess they've made. Instead they're doing a public relations campaign to defend Brian Scalabrine.
Maybe if Scal hadn't taken Danny's (and Jiri's) #44 he wouldn't be receiving the brunt of the boos that should be aimed at Danny.
For three million dollars Scalabrine should be stuck with the Old Bag. When I married Mrs. Right, I didn't know her first name was Always.
Unreal. Anything worse would be better. Time to put PP on the shelf? Just like myassholestnx and the old bag on a slow night, we must "aim for the bottom."
Boilpopper, I saw that thing about Wyc sending personal emails about not trading Pierce. The level of denial has grown Rumsfeldian. What the fuck do these guys think can happen, even in a best case scenario? In three years we become a bubble playoff team?
Scalaburine is the white Waltah minus Tommy's brain dead boosterism. The PR flacks step in and now the 79 people who, not content to merely waste their lives going to Celtics games, still actually read about the team in the papers, might wait until the 3rd quarter to boo poor baby Brian. As you all know, we have discussed this in the past! Boo!!!!!!! BOO!!!!!
Ps - I'll be making the trek east next week and will finally be able to watch a few games and do some recaps.
Well, I can't think of anything funny to so, so I just sit here and giggle at the camera.
Other than that, I was lucky enought to not see last nights game. Wrt the public relations push for "Scals", I do think he's been playing better recently. But, if his improved play is the best thing we have to look forward to, we have major problems. And, lo and behold - we have major problem. I agree it would've been good if Pierce were out for he season. Then the kids could develop and we lose all he games anyway. Best of both worlds.
Epic Game tonight against the Grizzlies.
The game could come down to who hustles more, Scalabrine or Cardinal.
Rondo really is on track for rookie of the year honors. Yet another first round gem found by Danny Ainge, preseason all star, benched in favor of a guy that can't dribble with both hands and is bitching about playing time and his role with the team but somehow he's being sold as a future all star after 2 plus less than stellar years in the league where he's often injured. Delonte West, a poor man's JR Bremer has beaten out future hall of famer Rajon Rondo.
Just two weeks ago, a moderator on the Celtics Nation board said that Rondo will be as good as Chris Paul in a year, two at most.
And they wonder why we make fun of them.
Rondo can't shoot. Period.
If we don't get the #1 draft pick this year, we may be in for another 20 years of misery. Keep Coc, lose tonight, let's go for #1.
"Delonte West, a poor man's JR Bremer" hahahhahahahha!!! YES!
It's just been announced that PP will miss the rest of the season due to delayed ink-poisoning from the massive tatoo he showed off when he took off his shirt after losing against indiana in the playffs. He should be ok shortly after the NBA draft in 2007.
I agree with Tommy: the Celts lost this one because of the new ball. Crazy fuck.
Ok, Greg "Tony Snow" Dickerson just blamed the loss on injuries without even mentioning that Memphis was playing without its best player, the MVP of the World Championships.
Only 2 games out of first!!
Pierce has officially stopped playing hard.
Maybe Simmons can dub Pierce face - befuddled indifference to your 9th turnover of the game.
Three critical road games against fellow bottom-feeders New York, Philadelphia, and Charlotte next week. Posting an 0-3 against those teams could be huge come lottery time.
It's desperation time over at celticsblog. Man, what negativity. It's nice to read the well reasoned missives over on this site.
The Suns could be tired after their 2OT win over the Nets last night. Let's hope the Celtics don't do anything stupid tonight like winning this game.
Jim may be warming to the Iverson notion - primarily because he's so fucking sick of hearing Tony Allen analogized to Dwayne Wade, Perkins to Bill Russell and all the stupid shit on the other boards.
If we can get rid of a few of Danny's Goddam Day Care for anyone - even the rotting, fetid corpse of Drazen Petrovic - it'll at least cut down the number of young players for bandwagon Celtics fans to wax hyperbolic (and we all know that hyperbolic is Latin for "I'm a dumbshit and I don't have a fucking clue what I'm talking about) about.
Jim, for shit's sake, don't speak of yourself in the third person. You sound like Bo Jackson in grad school.
But, I agree. The Celts have to get rid of some of these young idiots, who we've stocked up for just that purpose: another famously misguided Danny Ainge trade. If Iverson can't win with Webber, Iguadala, and Dalembert, then how the hell is going to with Pierce and, well...nobody?
Whew! They had me scared there for a second.
I hate being the one to kick the comment counter past 69, but these are important times.
anyway, we trade for Iverson we lose this year's number one and we'll be fucked for the next eight years (3 years of PP/AI, five years rebuilding from that disaster). I agree with Jim that it'd be nice to ship out some of these guys simply to see them for what they are on other teams, but purging overrated guys on minimum contracts for Iverson's three years $60 million is not the solution. That said, I'd still keep Gomes and Jefferson if possible. Yes, Big Al is a retard, but he's been okay this year and a Pierce/Iverson debacle is going to need someone who can rebound, look befuddled and hold his hands up for passes that never arrive. Gomes, on the other hand, is the only truly unselfish player on the team.
But again, we have to rebuild through the draft. Through LOTTERY PICKS. Look at the Orlando Magic. One great pick in Howard, one steal in Jameer Nelson, suddenly you have a legitimate core of young players that you can build around.
Also, I really don't think Pierce/Iverson with Coc as coach is a shoo-in for the 8th seed. Even in the East. It could potentially be that bad.
enjoy the following, taken from a yahoo! sports article
"We can mesh well together," Pierce said. "Any time you have two guys at that caliber play and they play together, then things will work out."
Which caliber is that? The one that has led both teams to a combined record of 10-24? Fuck him. I hope Minni gets AI just to get Garnett off suicide watch.
I think we shoudl definetly get Iverson but we shoun't give up Green, Telfair, Rondo, Perk, Al, Powe, West, Ray, or Scal.
I'm struck by some of the crappy coaching in the NBA. We all know about Coc, but how about Lawrence Frank putting Kidd on Pierce on the last play of the game? Maybe Coc's contagious.
Ah, desperation breeds all sorts of ideas.
One fucking decent game by Fat-Ass Jefferson and he's all of a sudden an untouchable.
Gerald Green, who can't string a sentence together, is an untouchable.
Jesus, people are even waxing hyperbolic about Inmate #42.
Goddamn, Celtics basketball brings out the fucking idiots on the Internet.
Should be a fun game tonight. Celtics or Knicks: which team is more retarded?
I've been trying to figure out who the biggest fuckwit is that posts here.
Congratulations Jungle Jim!!!!! You fucking smartarse know it all cunt. No wonder they shipped your ass out of Celtics Blog.
I wonder if I should start spamming again????
Have you missed me?????????
I watched the Knicks coverage on Directv last night. Can I give a big Hamcock to the mad hatter of chatter, the multiplier and stultifier, the man who puts the color and anus into color analysis: Mr. Walt Frazier!
Hi, Will.
Do you know any words besides cunt? I doubt it. Self-loathing does that to a person.
Now, on to Celtics subjects. Jim is now officially hoping for an Iverson deal - any Iverson deal - as an early Christmas present.
I want to see the implosions on CelticsBlog and RealGM.
Buy a vibrator, Will. You'll feel better.
By the way.
I'm still laughing at your 53-win prediction this year, Wiggles, old buddy.
Will, I missed you, the Old Bag, and being stuck on an elevator with a flatulent octogenarian, in that order.
Let me add to that. Absolutely last on the list would be socializing with some of the bloggers over on Celticsblog. There are some absolute mental cases over there. I wish the Old Bag had a couple of hundred sisters, one for every one of those bufoons.
Ah, that fucking mess is good for a laugh every now and then.
But if you're looking for intelligent basketball discussion, you're not going to find any of it there.
Damn, I wish Billy King would just ship Iverson out west so we can return to being all warm and fuzzy every time one of our beloved youngsters doesn't fuck up a ballgame.
I think it might be funny to see AI come in here and really fuck up our nursery school, break Perk's dolls, tear apart Green's teddy bear, stick a "kick me" sign on Al's back, and take Telfair's lunch money.
A question:
If there are "break-out" games, as Jefferson has been credited with recently, what do we call them when he sucks, as he inevitably will?
"Break-in" games?
AHAHAHAHAHAH
Found this on CelticsBlog. I'd lay odds on this guy getting banned, but it appears he's pissed off enough to leave:
First, and last, post from someone who’s been reading this blog since the beginning of the season.
I wonder how many of you appreciate how truly unique this blog actually is.
As I tour the other blogs and sites for the great franchises and teams, I find one common denominator - an absolute demand for success. Yankees, Heat, Steelers, Notre Dame, Oklahoma - all the same. Success equals championships and losing is unacceptable.
In the two-plus months I’ve been here, I’ve found quite the opposite: An angry, oftentimes defiant acceptance of ineptitude.
I grew up with the great Celtics of Bill Russell. Rode out a couple of bad years and then loved the Dave Cowens era. Rode out a couple of bad years and then Larry Bird turned the franchise back around. Sat through some great Garden games that were absolutely electric.
Thank God for NBA TV and ESPN Classic, or those memories would be almost gone. I wonder how many of you realize that it has been almost a generation since this team was even relevant.
And I wonder how many of you care. Reading this blog has been a very sobering experience. I am no fan of Allen Iverson, but as I sit here looking at my autographed Celtic balls, the handful of game-worn jersies I have, the programs, the banners, I can only say this: You guys have convinced me that it’s over. The Celtic tradition is gone and it won’t be back.
From where I sit, this franchise doesn’t have five years to wait for Kendrick Perkins to discover a jump shot. It doesn’t have five years for Telfair to learn how to guard someone.
If the Celtics have ANY chance of recapturing the tradition, it has to happen now. It has to have ownership willing to write the checks to bring great players back to Boston. It has to have a GM astute enough to find them, and a coach creative enough to coach them. We have none.
There HAS to be an impatience for success in the great franchises, and an intolerance for anything less.
But on this blog, there’s an intolerance for anyone who doesn’t accept mediocrity. To wit: Earlier today, I ran across a very astute analogy from a poster here - that staying a failed course in any endeavor is a recipe for total failure.
Great observation. Yet, I note that poster was immediately belittled as classless by the moderator.
That’s all the proof I need to move on. This blog exists in a parallel universe I want no further part of.
Nice win over the Philly 38ers.
Anyone ready to predict an Atlantic Division title?
Hahahahahaha.
Dr. et. al,
I haven't been watching the Celtics as I've had a moment of lucidity where I realized it was the physcological equivalent of Chinese water-torture. You keep waiting for the up-and-coming "talent" to reveal itself and then when the lose, you wonder if the is talent there at all.
So, instead of been spending my time banging the baby-sitter like a screen door. Ok, that's a lie - we don't even have a baby, let alone a sitter - but I saw it in an email joke and liked the sound of it.
I've also refrained from checking the Celtics Blog. The Celtics games are bad enough - why compound the pain and suffering by trudging through the verbal reflection of the disasters the games turn out to usually be? The Celtics fucking blog - I can't put my finger on it, but there is just something about that site the puts my nerves on edge. Maybe its just the sheer volume of posts, I dunno.
Yeah, reading that blog reminds me of another old Chinese saying: Opinions are like assholes...everybody's got one, and they all stink.
Yes. I'm ready to predict that the Celtics win the Atlantis Division. All the other teams stink like the old bag's twat. And the more the Celts have injuries (Perk, Wally) the more Doc is able to figure out who should be starting and "earning" the most minutes. I'm hoping Telfailure, who's logged two goose eggs in the past three games, will get injured next. Then, I think the Celts can even be competitive with most of the middle-of-the-pack teams.
Has a lottery pick ever been traded for such a worthless barrel of spit before?
I don't know what has more hot tips- celticsblog or a fag convention.
Pretty amazing how a mention of a trade can be a great motivator. Also, injuries forcing Coc to give guys some real minutes. At any rate, the team has been enjoyable to watch lately, I have absolutely no idea at this point what kind of season we are in for.
Yeah, Doc's "rotation by natural selection" is really working.
Dr. Chestnutt, were you going to give us some game wrapups this week? I thought you were traveling back East. Or was that just for a "Massachusetts Wedding"?
Yep, a couple of real dead asses have awakened due to the threat of exile.
Nice move.
Now, let's see if they keep playing hard or if they go back to their shitty play of the past.
In the meantime, let's see if we can dump Gerald Green's 25 IQ on Jerry West for Gasol.
Do that and who knows how good this team could be?
Celticsblog has a poll: "Would you trade Al Jefferson for Pau Gasol."
And get this-- its No 71%, Yes 29%
I don't think it's too crazy really. Over the past five games Al is averaging 16.6 points and 11.2 rebounds. He's only twenty-one and if he's capable of playing like this for a full season, then he might be as valuable as Gasol at a much lower price. The only problem is he must "earn minutes" in Doc's "system," which it seems can only be done in those all-important, highly classified practice sessions we keep hearing about. And Doc, being the complete fucking idiot that he is, will probably put that fucking oversized blocking dummy Kendrick Perkins back in when his bunions get better.
If five games could be construed as any level of consistency, perhaps.
But they cannot - although I have no doubt whatsoever that the raft of Danny defenders will try frantically to declare them so. They are a five-game oasis amidst what has been an underachieving career.
Breakouts don't happen over two weeks, and they certainly cannot be identified on the day or week they begin. They tend to be best identified retrospectively.
I'll take Gasol over Jefferson.
But ... I'd prefer to see if we could pry Green away from those scintillating Boston area Mensa meetings and ship him as the centerpiece.
West reportedly is fascinated with Green, so if we can get him to interrupt his atom-splitting work and move to Memphis, perhaps West would take him over Al.
I see that CelticsBlog also has a statement from its leader that it welcomes all opinions.
Bullshit.
Well, another good night for Jefferson. He's still on the radar.
I'll concede with Jefferson's recent play he's looking better, but Gasol has the greater pedigree. Right now I'd take Gasol, but ask me again in a couple weeks.
Ah screw it, put me on the Jefferson bandwagon for now.
Al's been great. He has a knack for being in position to receive the ball (from Pierce mostly because the point guards suck). And because he's on the Celts and not the opposing team, we don't have to listen to Tommy saying, "Jefferson's spending a weeklong vacation in the lane, Geesh!)
The perfect move would be to trade The Dolt, along with the necessary garbage, for Gasol and pair him with Jefferson inside.
True, JJ, that would be a good move, but even Memphis isn't that stupid. It'll be interesting to see what happens when Gomes comes back and then opposing teams must deal with a PF that they actually might want to cover, as opposed to Raef "Waltah" Scalabrine, who just hangs around the three point line, irrelevant as a Danny Ainge press conference.
They might be. The new owner professes to cut payroll once he buys the club.
Plus, West loves The Dolt.
Gasol and Mike Miller for The Dolt, Theo's corpse, West, Allen, and whatever else it takes.
Amen JJ
Count me driving the badwagon.......
You know what's kinda funny? If Portland hadn't picked Telfailure with the 13th pick in the 2004 draft, Asswipe Ainge probably would have picked him instead of Al Jefferson at #15.
How about this... if Perk doesn't go on injured reserve Al never gets the chance to do what he's doing... then Al gets traded and we all find out the trade is even worse than all our other bad trades put together. This may end up happening to Gerald Green. Play these guys, Coc, let's see what they've got.
Not just Perk. If Kandi was healthy he would have started. Doc is an idiot.
It's highly unlikely that Green can put up the kind of numbers Al has - way too unpolished.
It's fun to watch the message board idiots come in their pants every time Green dunks the basketball, but he can't lock down an opponent, he can't dribble for shit and he couldn't get his sorry ass into Oklahoma State University, where a pulse is the only requirement for admission - and a big-ass liver to play for the Drunk, Eddie Sutton.
Wings are a dime a dozen. I have no qualms about dealing The Dolt.
I'm not willing to get too excited about Al just yet. His rebounding stats look amazing and his 7-game tear has been very encouraging but I'm going to need to see more than two weeks before I'm willing to believe that the Boston Celtics have actually developed a young player. What happens when Kandi, Perkins, and Theo come back? Do they chip into Al's minutes because of his lack of defense? Or what if he starts fouling like a bonehead again or hurts himself? Is he really going to play 35mpg with everyone healthy?
Trust me, ANYONE can look good for two or three weeks. How do you think I married the Old Bag?
myassholestnxduzyrs, you fucking crack me up.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA.
myasshole, you cracked me up, too.
EJ, old buddy, that kind of realism will get you trashed on Real GM and banned from CelticsBlog.
Those stupid shits are in full "we told you so; don't trade any of the kids for anyone" mode right now.
But I agree, EJ. Turnarounds aren't finalized over seven games, or even over half a season.
Al warrants hanging onto, but we can deal Brain Surgeon No. 5 tomorrow for inside help as far as I'm concerned.
Put Gasol on this roster, and you might be able to watch this team night after night without grabbing a handful of pubic hair and yanking it out.
Agreed JJ. Keep Al, but trading one of our wings, including Green, for someone like Pau could make this team very competitive. It looks like we're playing our way out of any quality big man help in the draft.
And.. if we cannot get it on the draft and theres any chance Memphis bites a Perk, West, Wally , first for Pau Trade
Pull the trigger
I wish my cock was bigger.
Pierce out 2-3 weeks with Odenitis. First good move Danny has made in four years.
It'll be a nice acid test for the "our kids are great" crowd.
If they are actually progressing, then I expect to be at or around .500 when Pierce comes back.
If not, this season is over.
Put up or shut up time for the Day Care Clan.
I got my first taste of live Celtics action this season at the Golden State game. I noticed a few things:
1) The mysterious and rare play known as the backdoor screen resulted in layups on four straight possessions in the second quarter for the Warriors. The man in the middle providing shotblocking help? Al Jefferson. He actually got taken out for the last six minutes or so, presumably due to his inability to drop guys like Dunleavy from getting to the rim.
2) What the hell was Al thinking when he gave Richardson a running clothesline into the first row while he was shooting a three from the corner?
3) Tony Allen is a piece of work. All game he is bull rushing the basket, then one play he gets the ball wide open on the wing with a clear lane to the basket and he decides to unleash his midrange game. Guess how that worked out.
4) Al Jefferson is a terrible free throw shooter. This resulted in a loss against the Warriors, and could continue to haunt the Celtics moving forward.
5) Sebastian Telfiar - Is it safe to say that's he's been completely worthless all year to this point? Has he done anything? Has he penetrated into the paint more than 10 times all season? I just love seeing him camped in the corner while Pierce is triple teamed with the shotclock winding down and no one on the team is moving.
and finally,
6) Why no timeout on the final play? I don't know what was funnier, a) The Celtics play with 24 seconds left, b) that both teams called timeouts with 0.6 seconds left before a jump ball when it would've defied the laws of Physics for anything to happen, or c) That as soon as the final buzzer sounded, Tony Allen tried to call timeout.
Did they really have a timeout left at the end? You gotta be kidding me.
I wish my cock was bigger.
Greg Cockerson calling the game tonight in place of Tommy. Merry Christman, one and all.
Test number one for the greatest collection of young talent in the NBA=flunked.
Assplowed by the Sixers.
Let the alibis flow on the message boards.
That Fucking Idiot Greg Dickerson is going to fill in for Tommy! WTF? Who the fuck wants to listen to that idiot? Does anybody, I mean ANYBODY, even like that guy? Was Hitler unavailable?
I just wanna say, the kids suck hard, out loud, probably forever and don't belong in the D league or in Europe. No wonder they didn't go to college.
Jeesh.
Defense? beyond awful.
I kinda enjoy reading RealGM. The posters there are just stupid - "No way we lose to Philly," followed by "Pierce is out, what did you expect?"
Sincere stupidity is better than the militant bullshit on the other board.
I love the posts that say now that we're forced to play the young guys it's going to increase their trade value exponentially. Huh? What could you get right now for Telfair, DWest, et. al.? We're due for a break, hopefully in this years draft.
This is a great opportunity to showcase the young guys. Anybody need a starting point guard who averages 5 points and 4 assists and plays defense so poorly that he must be replaced at the end of close games? Oh, also, he's a really "great kid" except for the gun-on-the-plane thing and a minor incident involving a rapper, a $50,000 gold chain, and a handgun.
Agggh. Someone brought up Telfailure again.
Has there ever been any more stupid shit than trading a lottery pick for that walking piece of dung in an NBA uniform?
Ainge should be fired - for that.
My favorite on RealGM is actually some sort of Celtics employee who continually contends that some of the kids have "proven" that they will be parts of a winning team.
They ought to recruit him over at the HappyBlog.
Uh, dipshit, they're not winning any games by themselves, not even over the Sixers.
But they've proven they're NBA winners?
The winner, if you will, is on the pine right now with a bad foot. The rest of them? Ugh.
Amazing lack of logic.
Pierce's injury should redefine the term "good stats, bad team". You know what I mean, you put together a shitty enough team and all of a sudden Terry Catledge is averaging 19ppg, or Lionnel Simmons averaged 18 and 9 for a season, or Dana Barros averages 20 and 9 and the Celtics immediately sign him to a long-term contract. I haven't even read realgm since Pierce went down and I can only bring myself to read the other blog about once a month, but I'd imagine that people are gushing about 20 points or maybe even 14 rebounds and ignoring the fact that the Boston Celtics just lost at home by 15 to a team that started Alan Henderson and Kevin Ollie..
I guess my expectations shouldn't have been too high, Boston started Gerald "Howard the Duck" Green, Telfailure, who by the sounds of it produced another gem, and Inmate $42.
Currently in a position to pick 6th, which is juuuuuuuuust about where it's usually too late to land an impact player.
Merry Christmas! And during the holiday season, just remember Danny is a genius who has a vision!
Yeah, it's hilarious.
The same ass-clowns who were guaranteeing a win over that Ollie-Henderson juggernaut are now foisting up one excuse after another for the "promise" shown in the Philly loss.
This is all done, of course, under the cover of a group of fuckhead moderators who Jeff Clark must have loaned RealGM - i.e. - be optimistic and agree with us or be gone.
Great entertainment, RealGM.
T'was the night before Christmas
I need forty winks
I don't know much about nothing
Except... my asshole stinks
And so do the Celtics
Oh, I'm trying to be civil
I gotta watch them 'cause the Old Bag
Is Missionary Impossible
I wonder where the Doctor is
He's turned into a ghost
Hell, I don't even know
If he's on the west or east coast
I miss his pithy musings
On things green and white
And like him, I have opinions
On how to change our teams horrible plight
In fact, this team NEEDS a Doctor
Who can give it a kick in the butt
These housecalls made via internet
By the good hand of Doctor Chestnutt
So on behalf of all of your posters
Please allow me very humbly to say
Thanks for your past composisitions
I hope more will be on the way
All, get on your knees and thank the Almighty
That you've been blessed with a wonderful life
For unlike me (dammit), none of you have
A fuckin' Old Bag for a wife
Merry Christmas
That's beautiful, myassholestnxduzyrs
Merry Christmas to you and your old bag.

Merrry Holidays everyone. Even Dr. Chestnutt.
Pretty good for the other blog, with all the time those idiots have to spend working up excuses for the latest defeat.
Youth movement= 0-2.
Couldn't guard a chair. For God's sake, Dickau would be a defensive stopper on this roster.
Tonight at 10:30, live from Los Angeles, Sebustian Telfailure and Rajon Rondo star in an all-new episode of "Lost"
"but I'd imagine that people are gushing about 20 points or maybe even 14 rebounds and ignoring the fact that the Boston Celtics just lost at home by 15 to a team that started Alan Henderson and Kevin Ollie.."
Yes. There are people who are now sure that Jefferson is close to Dwight Howard as a player.
I guess a proper food analogy for this team would be Brunswick Stew; a collection of all kinds of shit with no one ingredient being dominant. Man, oh man, are we due for a break, like the #1 pick in '07.
Good point, Scintan.
Which, of course, reinforces my long-held conviction that computers are too fucking cheap.
Danny's Day Care=0-3.
The cure for a losing streak is to play the storied, great Boston Celtics youth movement.
Next up, Bassy Telfailure and Inmate #42 reprise the great roles in "Dumb and Dumber: The NBA Sequel."
Interesting discussion on the other blog about which Celtics point guard sucks worst. It's a tough call: they're all so horrible. I still give it to Sebustion Telfailure for being so overhyped.
I just googled "We coulda had" Brandon Roy and saw that he was back. I wonder if anyone has ever been the 3rd string point guard for two different franchises that finished with the worst record in the NBA in consecutive years. By the end of the season, Sebustian could make history!!
Also it appears that Dr. Chestnutt's preseason prediction that Rajon Rondo would have an Oriene Greene-esque flameout might have been too generous. He just, never played well, ever. And it's true, the herpie hasn't been much better. When did he forget how to shoot? Boston currently with the 5th worst record in the league, hopefully Gasol (likely) and Andre (unlikely) can get their teams on a roll and move Boston into a position to pick top 3.
But obviously Pierce will come back and the team will win a few too many games leaving us all devestated..
Chesnutt's preseason script is being followed to a T by the Celts.
The only thing we can root for is continued losing and a top three pick that Danny doesn't fuck up and trade for Earl Boykins. Wow, I'd like to see a thread on the top five Celtic screw-ups over the past few years. I hope we can all look back on this and laugh one day real soon.
Ah, but we are all bad fans for not acknowledging the greatness that is this team, the genius that is Ainge and the benevolent wealth that is Wyc and the other titty babies who own this fucking mess.
How can you say Danny is not a genius? He managed to acquire Raef's max six year contract so he could show that he could lop one year off it by trading him and a first round pick for the one-year-shorter contract of physically unable Theo Ratliff, and he also helped build two championship teams (Detroit and Miami) in just four years. Danny is a genius.
Oh yeah, and he hired Doc.
There's like one post to this site every fucking month. Lazy asses. Where's the gloom and doom?
Hey! Fuck is right. This team sucks as bad as the M.L Carr led 15-win team, and this team is actually trying to win. Where the fuck is Dr. Chestnutt to put this abomination into words?
Pierce will sit until the all-star break.
And this fucking team will be lucky to win three games until then - because these kids suck.
The only fun we're gonna have is watching the stupid shits on the blogs flip-flop between "the kids are stepping up" and "tank the season."
Congrats to Danny. I didn't think it was possible for him to land a player worse than Manbreast McScal, but Telfailure is it.
Not to beat a dead horse, but, we could've had Brandon Roy.
Hey, fuck, are we related?
Ratliff is out for the season. There goes our hope for a championship. Still, Ratliff out for the season is a lot better than Raef starting 62 games. If Ratliff never plays another game, the Celts still got the better of the deal, even though they gave up a first rounder for nothing.
Doctor Chestnutt: If you'll write another piece I'll ... gulp ... eat the Old Bag.
Me too.
There's plenty to go around. Her pussy has more lips than the Harlem Boys Choir.
I'll bet her pussy is nicer than Danny's or Doc's.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA
If you haven't read it, the front page essay on Tony Allen's injury on CelticsBlog is must reading.
Kinda reminds me of the "Torch is Passed" retrospectives on the Kennedy Assassination.
Jesus, what a bunch of hyperbolic bullshit.
I've been trying to read the celticsblog piece on Allen for about 30 minutes now, and everytime I read a paragraph I have to minimize the window and do something else. I'm still not finished. It's Tony Fucking Allen. The same guy who broke someone's eye socket in a gunfight, who everyone and their mom wants off the team, and who Dr. Chestnutt eloquently described as having "The attention span of a crack baby."
I personally have not enjoyed the recent emergence of Tony Allen. He is wildly out of control and for me it has been painful to watch him score his 18ppg while the Celtics get rolled by every mediocre to good team in the league.
The play last night was an accurate representation of the Celtics and Tony Allen in particular. On one hand the NBA has players like Allen Iverson who have stopped dunking to save their knees, and on the other hand the NBA has players like Tony Allen who tear their ACL's while missing dunks 10 seconds after the whistle blew.
Why haven't the Celtics learned the basic lesson "don't do stupid shit"? Gunfights, stupidity after the whistle blows, and being the "emotional leader" of a team that has gone about 2-15 since Pierce got hurt. Impressive resume. I don't want him on the team!!
Also it was funny that the Celtics didn't send out the trainer, or a stretcher. Leon Powe and some other clown carried him off the court. And one of the players was holding him by the KNEES!!!!
Although a positive is that Tony Allen is already a Celtic. Think about it, he had a nice 3 week stretch and blew out a knee. If he wasn't already on the team Ainge would be burning up the phone lines trying to trade for him this offseason.
Also I realize this post is getting long winded but the starting lineup last night was Telfair, Green, Allen, Jefferson, and Perkins. Either I am vastly underrated our players or that might be the worst starting five in the history of the NBA.
Also-
Does this make Allen Ray the starting SG?
It tells you everything you need to know about the intelligence of that fucking blog that Paul Pierce's injury was good news while Inmate #42 fucking himself up produced some of the most maudlin bullshit in that blog's history - and that's saying something.
If it takes a Celtics player tearing his ACL to fucking shreds while attempting a post-whistle dunk to bring people back to Celtics Doom, I hope one of them does it every game. Great to hear from you guys.
(Tony was playing great, though. I won't take that away from him.)
Oh, and why the fuck would you even bother reading the CelticsBlog write up on Allen's injury? I'd rather tear my own ACL and menisci than read that self-aggrandizing regurgitation of mainstream media's Celtics sob story.
Yep. He had seven good games, which qualifies him for Springfield in the eyes of about 80 percent of our ignorant fanbase.
Good riddance Tony. Good fucking riddance. Have fun at your trial and if you don't make it playing in Europe I hope you enjoy changing fluids at QuickLube for the rest of your life.
The Brain Doctor strikes again!!!
Christ now Rondo goes and scores 23 points. I'm sure the regulars on the forums will have a 10 page discussion tommorow on whether or not they'd include him in any deals for Garnett.
I didn't watch the game, but now I am thankful for this because I checked out the boxscore and saw that Olowotaser played 19 minutes. Wasn't this guy a headcase salary throw in on a trade we made last year? Seriously what the hell is he still doing here?
I would also like to nominate Tony Allen for the Boston Celtics' 6th star award, given to the player who best represents the franchise on and off the court.
With Allen, Pierce, West, and Wally out Brandon Roy would be looking pretty good right about now. We're right in the thick of things for a top 5 pick, though, just a 1/2 game up on Charlotte and Atlanta which would give Boston the 3rd worst record in the league; and you'd have to assume Memphis will eventually pass the Celtics. Sadly I have so little faith in this team that I don't even think they can handle losinf right and we're all going to be dissapointed once Pierce returns.
Regarding Olawakrappy, EJ, the funny thing is that he is actually better than future hall of famer Kendrick "Vitaly" Perkins. The "Can't he" man should probably start, but, once again, it would be too embarrassing for the Ainge administration to have a guy who absolutely no other team wanted, even for minimum wage, starting over your projected franchise center. So, long live Perk.
Kandi man was the best C's frontcourt player last night, nice to have a respectable, solid vet on the team....Rondo looked pretty good,(he should try foul shooting and maybe even get a jumpshot ((start with a setshot)) going before he trys to get a contract or something), Gerald looks like he might swing up to varsity once he figures out the palming and traveling rules (age 30),Telpoor is perfecting the "watch my man go by me for a bunny or shoot at will from 12'" routine. Absolutely the best in the league at padding opposing pg stats. Poor Tommy having to sing the praise of, gulp, Allen Ray. I believe he made 3 shots (2 3's though) in the 1st half. Well, anyway, we're heading where the good Dr. said we should 2 years ago, to the lottery.
Bring it on!
Telfair was great in the first quarter, after going under a pick and getting torched by TJ ford yet again he starts screaming at his teamates that they didn't jump out on his man.
Brain Doctor strikes again!!!
Ah, Telfair.
Ainge's latest example in the "Can You Top This?" game of totally fucked up trades.
It's all politics, IMHO. They have to keep pretending that Telfailure is worth something; otherwise people will see that that fucking idiot Ainge made the idiotic move of trading his best-ever draft position just to dump a year off the contract of one of his previous profoundly idiotic moves.
Unfortunately for us, the utter lack of vision and competitiveness of this team has been so muddled with injury excuses that we're going to be stuck with Ainge's immeasurable incompetence for at least another year.
Oh my Lord... you guys weren't kidding about that Tony Allen piece. What a syrupy piece of garbage. I can puke right now.
I am ever closer to officially banning Celticsblog from my list of sites visited.
Nice to note that Clark has now officially eliminated any serious discussion of the state of the Celtics with that putrid alleged piece of journalism.
Pretty accurate on IQ #12, Anonymous. That trade is horrific.
BTW, I'm sorry if I ran Will Roberts off by identifying him as that dumbfuck Wigglestrue.

Just three easy payments of $39.95, a great gift idea for that special fan.
I don't think anybody ever said Tony was a nice guy, unlike what they tried to tell us about $50G-necklace-call-a-hitman-gun-on-the-airplane boy Telfailure, so I don't care much about his off-the-court performance. But, with Tony, Gerald, Sebustian, Perk, Al, Wally, Pierce, and Kandi, it makes me wonder: has there ever been another team in the history of the NBA that was as dumb as this one?
It's a perfect fit for the vast majority of our fanbase, equally as stupid.
Sinking feeling about how bad the Telfair trade turned out to be. There must have been poison in that Kool-aid.
LOL, shouldn't you guys be happy? This is your dream come true. Everything is going just like you said it would. Enjoy your moment of glory.
I would be happy if I wasn't 100% positive that Pierce will come back and they'll win a few too many games to get Oden or Durant.
I am convinced that the Boston Celtics can't even lose correctly. I mean Memphis could be good, but the Hawks, Bobcats, and 76ers don't even have a veteran all-star like Paul Pierce. With that said, it is going better than expected, I thought Chestnutt's 34-win prediction was a goood one and it sure doesn't look like they're going to win that much. How anyone could deny that this team needs top tier lottery talent is beyond me. They also needed to not pay Pierce $20 million per year, but that is another topic for another day.
Jeff, I think you misdiagnose the mindset of the posters on this site. We are all Celtics fans, and no one wants a return to a Championship more than we do. We have been more skeptical of some of management's decisions over the years than your average blogger, and the fact that some of these skepticisms have proven to be more true than false creates no sense of satisfaction. Oddly enough, I am happier with the team right now than at any time over the last few years. The young guys are getting playing time so that we can determine who the keepers are, and we seem to have a few in Al, GG, and Rondo. Giving these guys playing time while losing close games so we can maybe get an Oden is a great plan. Think of a team next year of Oden/Durant, Al, GG, PP, and Rondo ... now that's something that instills hope. Doc is the perfect coach for this current situation, but next year we will need a real x's and o's coach with good game management skills. If we can trade some assets and get two picks in this draft I wouldn't have a problem with that either. We are due for a break, and this draft could be that opportunity. We are tired of mediocrity, so keep losing while playing the youngsters, that's something we can all root for. The 20 years of being lost in the wilderness is about to come to and end.
I, for one, am not happy. This team sucks even when it's healthy. All these injuries are just going to become excuses for why we have to sit through another year of the Danny and Doc administration. I was hoping for a legitimate 30-33 win season, so we could finally get rid of these two idiots.
very well articulated titty, I understand
I think worse than rooting for the team or complaining about them is indifference. I am very worried we haven't heard from the Doctor in such a long time. Have you finally had enough, Chestnutt? I'd hate for our franchise to become like Atlanta's, the game on Monday in Atlanta was like a mausoleum there were so many empty seats. Doctor, make a house call, please.
Nobody is happy about the state of the Celtics, Jeff. It is an absolute unadulterated disgrace how this franchise has been allowed - and continues to be allowed - to rot. It's well articulated above.
As for your blog, I'm still laughing about your continued "we welcome dissenting opinions" claim.
That's every bit as absurd as the Telfair trade. You don't and your moderators don't. Be honest about that blog. It's not an open discussion about the Celtics. It's a "toe the company line" blog.
And as you have quite correctly noted, the skeptics are right and the vast majority of your posters are out there in la-la land, aided and abetted by your moderators.
laugh all you want, but it doesn't make your absurd claim to be true
there are plenty of people on the blog that I don't agree with, in fact some of the Mods hold positions totally 180 degress from my thoughts on key matters
they just treat other posters with respect, something you could not or would not do
don't blame me for your actions
WADR, you're full of shit, Jeff. Your moderators harass anyone who disagrees with them, and you condone it when you refuse to rein them in.
You also stand idly by while some of your locksteppers harass and attack posters who've been proven - time and again - to be correct about the ultimate fate of this franchise.
Have fun with your yes men, and we'll continue to sit over here and laugh at you.
Maybe someday the Celtics will be run by intelligent management - if we all live long enough to see it.
Well said tittyfuck. It's not that people here want the Celtics to be terrible forever, on the contrary, all Celtic fans want the team to be relevent and to compete for championships. Dumbass contract after dumbass contract, 3 year rebuilding plan after 3 year rebuilding plan, fucked up trade after fucked up trade - Everyone here is pissed. New coaches, new owners, new GMs - and here we are, a 25 win team in year 20 of rebuilding with no cap space, no coach, no clue what players are worth, and no desire to blow it up and start over with a real plan.
It is not a stretch to say that this is the worst managed team in the entire NBA save for the Knicks. What exactly should I be excited about?
I will say that so far this has been a best case scenario type of season for the Celtics. Al has shown some consistency and some progress, GG has showed some progress, and the team currently has the 3rd worst record in the NBA. If they can maintain this for the rest of the year, consider 2007 a success.
And this is in SPITE of a GM/coach who said this team was shooting for the PLAYOFFS! Someone here said that Danny has done such a masterful job that he has created a team that can tank while actually trying to win. It's true, but can it last? And what does it say about our "talent"?
posts like the one EJ and tity just posted are always welcome on CelticsBlog - nuff said
cheers Celtics fans, someday we'll all root for a winning team again, ...someday
It just occured to me that the Celtics are worse than the Knicks, a team run by and coached by Isiah Thomas.
I'm with ya, EJ. I thought that the Knicks were the one team that the Celtics were going to be better than.
Somone needs to start a celtics blog site for the celtic dancers. All porn.
Hmmm...someone else is using my non-name.
...but I do agree heartily with the post.
Fun game against the Spurs, Delonte was freaking incredible in the fourth. Rondo was very energetic and Al had a big game, even scoring easily on Duncan a few times. Altho he wasn't matched up with him for most of the night. Perkins continues to be pathetic. Remember when he used to at least get rebounds?
Also anyone know what the deal is with the Spurs' coaching staff? Every timeout they walked to the foul line area and had a conversation while the players talked amongst themselves on the bench. Do they do this all the time or was that because they were playing the Celtics?
Also I know is I said I'd need to see Al do this consistently for a year before I'd get my hopes but, but he's really stepped up this year so far and I am happy with his progress. It'll be interesting to see what happens with him when he who guarantees 30 wins returns.
This season's like being married to the Old Bag. Like a fart in an elevator, you learn to live with it. At least evenutally you get out of the elevator. I told the Old Bag once that 20 years ago, we had a ratty apartment, cheap car, black and white TV, and no cash, but at least I was getting some of her 25 year old tail. Now, 20 years later, we have a nice house, big car, plasma TV, and plenty of cash, but I'm stuck with a 45 year Old Bag. I told her she wasn't holding up her end of the bargain. She said I was more than welcome to once again find a 25 year old piece of tail, but she would make sure that I would once again have a ratty apartment, cheap car, black and white TV, and no cash. Fuck this season, fuck a farty elevator, and fuck the Old Bag. Chestnutt, can you hear me?
Good news for the Celtics Blog crowd.
They've been topped in the "Jesus, what a stupid statement" category.
Poster on Real GM says Green can equal Michael Jordan.
You can't buy laughs like that one, fellas.
WOW I am good, one day after I crack and have a mini-sploogefest for Jefferson after trying for so long to not get overly excited about anything Boston Celtics related, sprained ankle. I guess it's a minor sprain. Whatever. Hey good news, Philly passed Boston in the Standings on the heels of an epic 2 game winning streak.
It's getting harder and harder to beat off to a Celtics game these days.
I hear ya, Will. Once they took Telfailure out of the rotation, I had to go back and whip out the old 8"x10" of Gary Coleman.
Jefferson has been the one bright spot in a season that has confirmed beyond debate the fucking ineptitude of Wyc the Banker Boy, his Mormon stooge GM and the idiot coach.
With that said, I'm waiting for Jefferson to do something stupid, a la Inmate #42 and snap both of his legs off at the knee.
Between a clueless owner, a moron GM and an idiot on the bench, this franchise is doomed.
And the thing about Al, IMHO, is that he would still be coming off the bench for 18 irrelevant minutes a night if the great Vitaly Perkins had not been injured. Doc is a genius.
Here's the thing that drives me the craziest about this weird Celtic fan mentality:
Before Pierce went down, it was "let's move Paul for a high pick or two to augment our great youth."
Now, it's "well, our great youth has gone 2-14 because Paul went down, among others."
Can't fucking have it both ways.
What it boils down to is this: There's a bunch of folks out there who simply will not admit they were wrong - and they were glaringly wrong - about Danny's youth movement.
Jefferson can play. Green might some day, if his 25 IQ doesn't bring him down. Beyond that, there ain't much.
Now, on to another point:
Y'all recall how many of the dumbshits in the Celtic masses wanted Patrick O'Bryant with the seventh pick?
Y'all notice that Don Nelson has quite accurately dubbed him a walking cadaver in sneakers and sent his lazy, unmotivated ass to the NBDL?
O'Bryant would have been the one thing Dumbass Danny could have done with the seventh pick that would have been worse than giving it away for Seabust Tellfailure.
Great post above by titty explaining the mindset of Celtics fans. Dr. Chestnutt couldn't have said it better himself?
Oh, I'm not implying you two are the same person... I'm just in awe of the similar writing talents. (Whew, I hope I got out of that one)
Has anyone ever seen Wyc and "Thanks Daddy" Gaston in the same room?
After reading the Herald today, I'm even more convinced than I was that Wyc is a fucking idiot.
I didn't read the Herald, but I do remember being pretty excited when Thanksdad finally sold the team. I was even more excited that he sold the team to a lifelong Celtics fan. I was a little disapointed that he didn't have pockets as deep as Mark Cuban or Paul Allen, but anyone would be better than Gaston. Lo and behold, Wyc turned out to be another penny pinching owner with no desire, or at least no plan, to make the Celtics a championship caliber organization. He resigned Pierce for Tim Duncan money, and anually aims for the 8th seed. Ho hum. Wyc needs to grow a pair.
Does one really need to read the Herald to know that Wyc is an idiot?
At least Bush got rid of Brownie and Rumsfeld. Wyc still think Coc and Danny are doing a marvelous job. How stupid does it look to be constantly grinning while on an eleven game losing streak? And Telfair got 3 1/2 minutes last night. Oh, and I think one of our cheerleaders has a pair of balls. Wow.
What good old Banker Boy is is a country club operator. He sticks his tongue up a player's ass and he can't bear to part with them.
That's why we're going to be stuck with Romper Room for awhile, in my opinion.
Kendrick Perkins may suck, but he's Wyc's buddy so he's gonna be sucking in green and white for a good spell.
Anyone else notice Bulpett's report yesterday that the Celtics don't have the assets to acquire Gasol?
Round two of a reality check for all the Internet dumbshits who persist in overvaluing Ainge's draft picks, despite mountains of evidence - 2-17 - to the contrary.
Some day, it'll dawn on a lot of these self-professed basketball experts who think founding a blog makes them an astute judge of talent that Wyc and Danny have destroyed this franchise.
And old Jim will still be here, saying, "I told you so a long time ago."
You mean they won't trade the MVP of the world championships for Gerald "Ron Mercer II" Green, Wally Szczszczsczerbiak, Theo Ratliff's corpse, and Sebustian Telfailure? I can't believe it.
Chortle.
Shocking, isn't it?
According to Bulpett, even Al "Airball" Jefferson isn't enough to seal the deal.
We'd better hope that Greg Oden suffers from whatever strain of infectious blindness has befallen the relentless Celtic optimists, or he's going to change his major to pre-med.
Tied now with the least wins with the Grizzlies. Season tickets for sale, anyone? Hey boilpopper, I don't think one of the Celtlic cheerleaders has a pair of balls, just an enlarged twat. Trust me, I would know. The Old Bag was laying naked on the bed the other day and I asked her if that was a clitoris or a stalagtite hanging over her pussy. She thought we had to move because the City Council passed a law banning big boxes.
AHHHH HA HA HA stalagtite
Another half-assed expansion-style effort against a lower-echelon EC team.
Youth movement: 2-18. Alleged talent: exposed.
Hole's getting bigger for all you assclowns out there who actually have fallen hook, line and sinker for the bullshit that Danny and Wyc are spreading.
The only thing that makes this horseshit expansion team tolerable is watching the idiots scramble to try and rationalize away being irrevocably wrong about the future of the Boston Celtics.
Okay Doomers, I'm going to ask you to take a Leap of Faith here.
next year's starting lineup:
PG to be named later
Pierce
Jefferson
Gasol
Oden
Dare to dream!
And if that sounded like a post from the "Other Blog", so be it. I stand by it.
Hey, somebody hacked the Rocky name! Imposter! That's not me -- it's the good Rocky!
No way, next season the Celtic lineup will be:
Crap
Crap
Crap
More Crap
Pierce
Bee on the lookout for Good Rocky!
Good Rocky doesn't have a small/quick forward.
It did sound like a post from the other blog.
Which shall forever be known as Celtics Wrong - in honor of the accuracy and knowledge of the posters there.
Y'all really think Greg Oden is stupid enough to throw away his college career to come play on a team that has less talent and upside than Ohio State?
We'll see if he's intelligent or if he's a money grubber. He doesn't seem like a dumb kid to me, and what could be dumber than coming out to play for Wyc and Danny?
I think an extension of your point, JJ, is that Doc and Danny need to be fired before the draft, so potential draftees see that the Celts are no longer buying the BS that comes out of those two losers.
Precisely.
I am officially on the record: Wyc, Danny and Doc must go.
Now.
They will go, but in reverse order. Unless they want their home games to look like Atlanta's. Nobody can endure too much of this shit.
Any order is fine. Just get the Bullshitting Banker Boy and his collection of assclowns out of the Green.
This shit reminds me of Iraq.
Turning that corner.
Into the path of an onrushing semi.
You are right, Anonymous. But Good Rocky doesn't really think too logically when he gets caught up in his fantasies.
Nice call JJ on Celtics Wrong. I've heard better, but not many. And to make the record clear, I think Jeff is a really swell guy--- it's just one or two of his mods.
All of you calling for Doc's head... are you serious? Doc is perfect for this job. Lord forbid we get a good coach and actually start winning. I want to be in the running for Oden or Noah.
I've been calling for Rivers to get canned since that Indiana playoff series, and for Ainge to get fired since last season.
The team's a joke and the Koolaid drinkers are doing their annual "You'll all be eating your words next year" dance already. But, I did enjoy the one person who insisted to me that Jefferson could be a 25/13 guy in the future and got upset when I called him a homer.
That was probably the same guy raving about the Telfair trade. Doctor Chestnutt got it right when he called it "Worst Trade Ever". I hope this isn't Heinson's last season broadcasting, what a way to go out.
Chuckle.
As we've seen, it isn't easy to sit back and watch as results demonstrate that all your Celtics optimism is actually proof that you're easily fooled by the Wyc propaganda machine.
It was obvious when Pierce went down that the answer about Danny's Daycare was at hand.
And now that it's in - they collectively suck - the true believers are struggling to do the right thing and admit that they're fools.
Good to hear from you again, Scintan.
Please pass along my regards to the Kool-Aid crew and remind them that Jungle Jim still considers them among the most gullible of fools.
Can't wait to read the blogs if we get a top pick. I can see it now, a contingency of supporters for "Just Say Noah". Which is what I basically say to the Old Bag on a nightly basis.

What does it mean when it hurts to pee-pee?
Thanks Jim.
As for the Koolaiders, tonight's approach is that all of us "haters" will have to backtrack next year if Oden gets picked and the team improves. Of course, they overlook that "Worst team in the league" part that'll get them Oden and talk about how great Ainge is. Apparently, greatness in Boston now means being so completely incompetent that the league bails your ass out.
It's really kind of pathetic to watch a collection of dumbshits refuse to admit that they've been so totally wrong about the Celtics.
Oden means absolutely nothing to that question. The Kool-Aid fools have been wrong. Period.
I think anyone with half a brain realized Doc should be fired after that Indy series and that Ainge had no clue when he traded for Walker. Wasn't Ainge's spin all along that the first Walker trade was great because it netted West and Allen? Yeah, great trade pal. Instead of cutting his losses Ainge then decides to spray lysol on a 10 foot pile of shit. Smiling banker boy is really a sight to see, what a fucking homo. That guy has driven away more paying customers in less time than Gaston. Did anyone think that was possible?
Fuck Coc, fuck Ainge, fuck Pryc.
sucking this bad has been the only thing Ainge, Pryc, and Coc have done right and it was an accident. They don't deserve the first pick but Stern will hand one of the top two to them on a silver platter.
You've got to wonder if the lure of money will be enough to drag Oden into this draft. It might be for Durant.
Because even a kid who understands basketball can look at the pile of shit we call a team and see half a career slipping away before Wyc finally sells out.
Now Pierce wants to come to the rescue. If we get just enough wins to get a mid lottery pick, this pis-poor miserable season will be the biggest waste yet.
If Pierce actually comes back, then you've got to make some sort of a move because you're fucked in the lottery.
I'm getting a funny feeling that the Celtics are coming to a fork in the road on what to do in terms of trading or tanking, and if we make the wrong move, we are in for another decade of absolute misery. Please, please, Danny, don't screw up.
Uh-oh.
It seems like good old Bob Ryan sides with the rotten, cynical, good-for-nothing posters over on Celtics Doom.
It's gonna be fun watching all the Kool-Aid dumbshits take Ryan to task. "He's not a true fan." "How can he say that about (fill in the draft pick blank)." "What does he know? Gerald Green is the next Michael Jordan." "Tony Allen is a poor man's Dwayne Wade."
All the stream of ignorance stupidity is gonna be hilarious.
I think I'll write Ryan and thank him. HAHAHAHAHAHA.
Check that.
The author appears to be Peter May - who is of course roundly attacked by the Johnstown crowd because he dares to question the great Ainge.
Won't stem the fun much, but the Koolaiders will certainly be out in all the vituperative force they can muster.
Looking at the schedule, the Celtics have a legitimate shot at running this streak to 24 games. There are some winnable games, but this team is pathetic and there is a monster west coast trip involved so we shall see.
you writing is hilarious. i'm sorry the celtics are beyond suck this year. it seems like you've given up and stopped writing period.
One of my nuts is bigger than the other.
You know, my gut reaction to the Commercial Appeal Gasol story was: Green, fine. Send his ass packing to Memphis for Pau. But Al? Too much.
Then, I noticed the opposition of a certain blog with an almost unimpeachable record - for being wrong about the Celtics.
So, I have changed my mind. If said blog thinks the price is too high, then clearly Gasol is a bargain for Al and Green.
Make the deal, Danny.
I just tried to comment on CelticsBlah about Al and Delonte's thinly disguised homophobia in the Herald today, and, guess what: my post was quickly removed. What a bunch of toadsucking fucking pussies those guys are.
if I had to put money down on what player would be sticking his dick in another man's ass I would put it on Delonte West. That guy is as queer as they cum.
No way, I'd say Pierce. He's been single for what, his entire NBA career now? And he got stabbed outside of a club that alternates gay/straight night.
Ok, people are debating the position of Celtics players on the Homosexual scale. I'd say it's time for a new post by Dr. Chestnutt.
Chuckle.
Quite true.
I think we've clearly established that the youth movement is a steaming pile of shit.
No more "Leon Powe is a poor man's Paul Silas" posts.
So now we've moved on to gay Celtics.
Could be time for some new thoughts from our leader.
Well, it looks like PP won't be enough to put us over the hump for quite a while. He looked about as mobile as Shaq against the Nets. And it doesn't look like he's tanking, he just looks tanked.
Regarding Gerald's development, Jordan was just a 1st year player at Gerald's age. To me, that proves beyond a doubt that Gerald's gonna be a supastar!
Another pitcher of Kool-Aid please?
Ricky Davis!
Yeah, Ricky Davis. Not to mention 20 points and some pretty good defense from Mark Blount. Of course, reading CelticsBlah you'd think those guys were as bad as Scalabrine and Telfart.
Hey, there's still a fair percentage of people on Celticsblog who think that Boston got the better end of the Davis/Wally trade, not to mention the Telfair trade where the money to Wyc's pocket is magically transformed into something helpful to the team.
Heck, there's even a small percentage who defend the first Walker trade, even though Traitor Danny has himself called it a mistake.
The first posts after the game were about how Ricky posed after hitting his shot. Apparently, Pierce grabbing his shirt after big shots is ok, but Davis can't do anything but walk off the court.
Yeah, Scitan, the realgm game thread was the same way. 5 pages about how Davis and Blount are thugs, classless, and how they suck. When Boston suits up saints like Olowokandi, Allen, and Telfair every night and our star player boots balls into the stands, says he won't obey the dress code, and shows up for postgame interview wrapped in unnecessary bandaging we are one of the last groups of fans who has the right to be complaining about class.
Those kinds of statements are the last refuge of the Celtics fans who can't get anything right about this team.
Tony Allen has been on a first-name basis with the local constables since junior college, and the only fucking way Telfair is going to get his name in the paper is to get arrested.
Yet, they've got "great potential" while Davis and Blount are thugs.
The lack of logic is one defining characteristic of an idiot.
Part of the idiocy comes from believing absolutely anything that Ainge, Doc, Tommy Snow, Gorman, or the players say, such as Ricky and Blount are thugs and everybody on the team loves each other. I challenge anyone on this team to step up and say they like Telfailure, who is punk of all punks, cries every time he attempts a layup, and acts like he has earned some kind of Iverson-like reputation from the refs.
Well, as we've seen from the past six years in Washington, if you repeat your line of bullshit often enough, 30 percent of American dumbfucks will believe it.
Which makes Celtics Blah "the home of the 30 percenters."
It's just like the Washington spin machine. And the biggest idiot that's buying it is Wyc.
The one difference is that while 30% of Boston sports fans are buying Danny's spin, the other 70% think it's baseball season already.
Uh, they won a game, albeit against some community college from Wisconsin
I wonder if there's a market out there for green t-shirts with a large handgun in the background and:
"Waive Sebastian Telfair" in big gold letters?
I am a fucking marketing genius.
Maybe it could have a broken gold chain on the front.
Wheee!!!!!!!!!!!!
We beat a community college. Gerald Green is the shit.
Who needs Kevin Durant?
Ummmm. His dad says he might like another year in Austin, where they actually have some real young talent - instead of the pretend variety in Boston.
you depressive cuntrags should kill yourselves already and save the world a little fucking bandwidth
