Ummm..okay

That was a long day yesterday! After hearing that Danny traded away half our team little by little, I was shell shocked! Now that i've had a day to process and really think about it, I like the Perk deal. Yess he was a great contributor and was a wall on D, but we might've have lost him for nothing at the end of the season anyway. Perk wanted $30 million over four years...we only were offering $22 million.

With Perk, you have a guy with knee problems and, in my opinion, played his best by KG's side. They don't have some one like that for him in OKC so we will really see what Perk is made of. On the other hand, Jeff Green, who is still young as well, comes in athletic, in shape, healthy and now having the opportunity to play next to KG! KG will bring out the best of Green and I believe that Green will fit right into our system.

About the Semih and Luke trade...Danny better be going after Troy Murphy. It seems like the c's will be acquiring him soon but no news yet. Adding a body like Murphy would fill the empty space of Semih and really be the only thing that would make sense of why we dealt Semih and Luke in the first place.

Oh and Marquis..we didn't get anything for him but it makes sense considering his career could be over

Also reports say that Leon Powe...yes that Powe...is also in discussions...that would be fun!

AHHHHHH! PERKKKKKK!!!!!!

you're crazyyyy! So apparently we just traded Perk to the Thunder for Jeff Green and Nenad Kristic! I don't know even know who kristic is! I think i'm going to be puzzled about this one for awhileee!

Perkins was a wall down low for our defense and we was our certified Dwight stopper. I don't know if Danny did this because of his injury problem and think that he won't fully recover...if that's the case he's probably wrong. Danny must have had a great reason to trade him because Perk was loved here in Boston.

PERK= =(

Deal Marquis??

So today is trade deadline day! The boys of green have been furiously trying to get a deal done to get a forward to back up Paul. Since using Nate as bate isn't working out, the latest news is that the c's are going to use Daniels' contract and get Anthony Parker from the Cavs, and eventually have the Cavs buy out his contract and then he can come back to Boston.

Personally, I like this deal if Cleveland will hold up their end of the bargain and buy out Marquis. The cavs claim that they will go along with it if they get our first round draft pick.

I think Parker is a good solid player and would be good for the rest of this year to fill the whole from Daniels needing surgery.

Also some side trades, Baron Davis and a first round draft pick were traded to Cleveland for Mo Williams and Jamario Moon.

Also, the Atlanta Haws received Kirk Hinrich for Mike Bibby and Jordan Crawford( A few other players were involved).

He's Backkkk!

Enough said..the man is playinggg once more!

Expect post about game!

FINALLY!

He went to NY, this doesn't mean anything for this year anyway. Yes, the Knicks landed Melo, Chauncy, and some other small players, but they lost half their bench, including Danilo Gallinari who was huggeee for them.  I think it'll make them better in the next few years but not for the rest of the year..BANNER 18 IS STILL COMING TO BOSTON!

Now that that's over With!

The big show is over! Kobe gets the MVP unfortunately and my man Blake brings home the slam dunk! Unfortunately, neither Paul or Ray Ray were able to bring home the 3 point title but still a good weekend overall! Obviously the game was a lack of defense event.. like always, but it was nice to actually see the players care and try hard in the second half.

I also liked...hoped you celtics fans noticed it...that Doc made sure our big 4 didn't play many minutes at all! I believe KG played around 4 minutes! Oh yeah and wade hurt himself...shit happens

I also want to share my favorite moment of this weekend with you..and im sure you all know what it is...BLAKEEEE!

What a Night!

1. Celtics end with a win before the all star break-success
2. Lakers lose to the once good...now absolutely terrible Cleveland Cavaliers

Tonight was a success in my eyes. With the green winning and the gaudy purple and yellow losing, us fans here in Boston have to be going to bed with all happy thoughts..that is until the alarm clock in the morning.

Ahhh Spring is in the air...in Ft. Myers that is

Red Sox Nation is starting to spur as the sox report to Ft. Myers this week! Pitchers and catchers reported on the day of love, the 14th, and the position players are expected to all be there by the 18th. Some players have reported, such as newcomer Adrian Gonzalez, who is expected to be the cleanup hitter/gold glove first baseman for the team this summer.

         This season is going to be something special; I can just feel it in the air. After main off season signings of Carl Crawford and Gonzo, the team's offense is the deepest it's been in years. I mean when you potentially have one of the best, and most clutch hitters in baseball in Big PAPI hitting 6th or 7th, you know they did something write to fix this line up.

         Yes, the offense has been improved, but that was never the issue last year. Last year the team hit for a total avg. of .268 with a .339 OBP and a .451 slugging percentage.   And that was with key injures such as Dustin Pedroia and Kevin Youkilis out for a lot of the summer. The issue was the lack of a bullpen and the inconsistent pitching from the starters..Josh Beckett in particular.

         As the starters look to have a bounce back year, and Beckett promising that last season was a fluke and he will be on his game this season, the bullpen is the thing that everyone is watching. The main Bullpen acquisition this winter was that of Bobby Jenks. Jenks has been the closer for the White Sox since 2005 and has proved himself in the M LB with a career 173 saves(About 36 a season). That's not my reason however. I think Jenks will become our closer next season. Papelbon will probably leave after his last season this year, and Bard is just not ready yet. Jenks and Bard should split the set up time this year to get Jenks into the normal rotation. Other key bullpen acquisitions include: Dan Wheeler and Felix Doubront.

         With Spring Training just days away from being in full swing, this is what I see right now as the lineup being for opening day(check back for updates right up until opening day):

1. Jacoby Ellsbury

2.Carl Crawford

3. Dustin Pedroia

4. Adrian Gonzalez

5. Kevin Youuuukilis

6. David Ortiz

7. J.D Drew

8. Jarrod Saltalamacchia/V-Tek

9. Marco Scutaro/Jed Lowrie 

  

As the All Star Weekend Approaches....

Since I am a Celtics fanatic I figure why not make my first real post one about the boys in green. As the all star break approaches the celtics are looking to hobble into the break with a win over New Jersey on Wednesday night. I like that we have them as our last game because it should give our startes a good rest considering they’re going to be playing in the game on Sunday as the best all star bench ever assembled.

It’s no question that injuries have plagued the celtics for a while now. Our biggest key injury right now, i believe, is Delonte. Once he comes back from his broken wrist you now have a true point guard to back up Rondo instead of Nate acting like he can handle the ball. Nate is a pure shooter, a 2 guard, and with West in the lineup it allows him to run off screens and get open without the ball like him and his little powerful black legs were meant to do. Besides that, Shaq coming back is vital as well.

 The celtics with a win on Wednesday will go into the break with a 40-14 record and 1st place atop the Eastern Conference. The Heat will of course finish behind them. 

Welcome!
