The Celtics are still many people’s pick to win the NBA championship this year and the team is still playing quite well. But the other day, the team dropped a rather big game to the Orlando Magic. It’s not that they were bad as such, but their first half was pretty awful. They didn’t really show up to the game until the second half, after they’d already dug themselves into a hole that they simply couldn’t escape from. They are having big trouble with injuries, but the coaches are talking about the problems with the team keeping the right amount of focus. They’re just not beating up on the teams that they usually do, it seems to us. We’ll be watching this team, because they’re probably still going deep into the playoffs.

Initially, it may seem somewhat shocking that the Boston Celtics have waived Darius Miles from their official roster. After all, this was the number 3 overall draft pick just two years ago. However, the Celtics program felt as though he was adding less than he was taking away from the organization. Partly due to major knee injuries that he had sustained in the past two seasons and more importantly his violation of the league’s drug code, the Celtics have waived him from their roster.

The All Star player of Boston Celtics Paul Pierce’s excellent NBA finals form continued in Game 5 as well, as he scored 38 points in the game and took the Celtics to the brink of victory and the championship. The Los Angeles Lakers held on to a slender margin 103-98 win over the Celtics and the see saw battle between the two arch rivals thrilled the Lakers fans to the last minute.

The Boston Celtics got the better off their arch rivals Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA finals Game 1 last Thursday night at Boston by virtue of a tremendous comeback by Paul Pierce after treating an injured knee that he sustained during the game. The final result showed 98-88 in favor of Celtics and LA Lakers will have to buck up their game in a bid to take home the second game. Kevin Garnett top scored with 24 points, but it was Pierce’s determination in spite of suffering the pains of a damaged knee that stole the limelight on Thursday. The keenly fought Game 1 will surely increase the sale of tickets in the remaining clashes between the two basketball giants.

The Boston Celtics won big time last Sunday night and overpowered Atlanta with the winning score of 99-65 to gain the upper hand in the second round of the NBA playoffs. Most notable scorers were Kevin Garnett who scored 18 points while minutes before that his teammate Paul Pierce added to the score board with his 22 points. The Celtics enjoyed being record holders to have won 16 NBA titles but they are experiencing a dry spell since the year 1986, not being able to win any championship title. The dynamic basketball team also boasted the victory of winning every single game during the Eastern Conference matches.

Doc Rivers, the Celtics’ coach maintained a positive mindset and was glad that he did not have to lose his first three game sevens.

Boston Celtics are currently on a losing streak as they have lost three consecutive games and are going through a rough Western patch. The Phoenix Suns beat the Celtics convincingly by 85 to 77 and according to Kevin Garnett, the Celtics player, playing in the West is not a joke and it is an acid test for the players. Even though Shaquille O Neal played for the Suns, it was the amazing performance of Amare Stoudemire who scored 28 points who was the outstanding player in the match. Kevin Garnett who played brilliantly for the Boston Celtics was on a man to man marking mission as he was assigned the job of guarding Stoudemire.

The game was a rugged and rough one, but with the presence of O’Neal in the side, Suns are not the softer side that they were before and this would have been clear to the Celtics while they played the game. Celtic Coach, Doc Rivers, was frustrated with the play showcased by his players and said that his side was very poor offensively in the game. The tussle between Garnett and Stoudemire was the major highlight of the game and when Garnett had to leave the game due to elbowing Stoudemire, a technical was handed to Stoudemire for pushing Garnett.

The Boston Celtics won over Indiana Pacers on Tuesday night with 104-97, becoming the first NBA team to get its 40th win.  This is despite the absence of injured players Kevin Garnett, who had abdominal strain, and Kendrick Perkins, who strained his left shoulder.  Boston, however, does not get into a big celebration — yet.  Having finished last season with a record of 24-58, the team is saving its celebrations for later.

Coach Doc Rivers stressed that they are not looking at numbers but are grabbing the opportunity to get better each time as they prepare for the playoffs.  As for their 40 wins, Paul Pierce comments that it shows the team is headed the right way.  He says that now the team is building good habits.  Paul Pierce scored 28 points and had 12 rebounds.  Ray Allen scored 23 points while Leon Powe scored 16 points and had 9 rebounds.  Pierce also said that the absence of Garnett and Perkins is not an excuse for them not to win, and they would have to hold it out until the two could play again.

For the Pacers, Danny Granger gave 18 points, 5 blocks, and 10 rebounds, and Shawne Williams gave the team 14 points.  Indiana also played without their starters, Jermaine O’Neal and Jamaal Tinsley, who were both injured.
