SOUND OFF with the Boston Celtics

The Celtics took a 3-1 series lead Sunday night thanks to a 16-7 run to close the game out. Jayson Tatum accounted for nine of those 16 points, including three off of yet another foul by Paolo Banchero on a Tatum 3. Boston’s superstar wing scored 37 points in the game, and he and Jaylen Brown combined to shoot 23-for-24 from the free-throw line. We’re sounding off on Boston’s increased aggression, the team’s...

The final 30 seconds of Game 3 were total chaos. Inadvertent whistles and game and shot clock concerns helped the Orlando Magic sneak out with a 95-93 win over the Boston Celtics.

We’re diving in and sounding off on everything that happened, including those final 30 seconds, before taking a few comments from our fans on what wen...

Jaylen Brown was unconscious during Game 2 and piled up a monster 36-point double-double to lead the Boston Celtics past the Orlando Magic despite Boston playing without superstar wing Jayson Tatum.

We’re sounding off on the incredible atmosphere at TD Garden, and taking comments from the fans on Jrue Holiday&r...

The Jays had an off night. No problem. Derrick White and Payton Pritchard were there to pick up the slack with a combined 49 points on 62 percent shooting!

Those three players are the reasons why Boston was able to dominate this game while The Jays had an off night. We’re sounding off on that, plus the Celtics’ intensity and p...

It might seem as if the Celtics aren’t on the same level as last season, but you aren’t looking closely enough if you believe that.

We’re sounding off on the team’s impressive title defense, the upcoming postseason, and Payton Pri...

The No. 2 defense in the NBA had no answers for a Celtics offense that was missing Jaylen Brown and Al Horford on Friday night.

We’re sounding off on Tatum being the best American-born basketball player in the world, on Boston’s ability to win yet again while missing multiple s...
