The preseason for the Boston Celtics has come to an end. The Celtics played only 2 games 1 against Ben Simmons, Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers and then Kyrie Irving, Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets. The Celtics of course went into this preseason schedule knowing that they wouldnt have starting PG Kemba Walker and newly acquired Center Tristan Thompson and their starting center for last season Daniel Theis. The first game saw the Celtics lose 108-99 to the 76ers. A game that saw the Celtics get some great performances from some of thier newest players and some terrible performances from their star players. Then 3 nights later the Celtics took on former Celtic Kyrie Irving and the Brooklyn Nets. Celtics now have their eyes set on their opening night showdown with Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks. Brad Stevens hopes to have Tristan Thompson and Daniel Theis for that game but its not likely they will have Kemba Walker. So we will discuss who should be in the 10 man rotation for this team and who should be forced to sit on the bench and wait for an injury or foul trouble to get their playing time? What about expectations for this year is this a year where its Championship or Bust for this Celtics squad especially with the team proclaiming that this is Tatum and Browns team and now their aint no one reamining from the Big 3 that everyone says was holding them back over the last few years? What about the starting Center spot. Should Theis keep it or should Tristan Thompson take it. We will discuss that with Nicola Bogani of Celtics Nation Italia. Mike Dynon of RedsArmy.com. Also our friend Andrew Vernon will join us.

The full Celtics Talk Radio crew are back together for tonights show. The Boston Celtics and all of the NBA Teams are now in the middle of their training camps and are working to make things perfectly set up for the NBA Regular Season. From setting the teams pecking order and rotations. To any last minute roster changes players being ditched cause their team didnt feel they deserved to make the final cut for their rosters. Plus the NBA schedule is out and now we know truly who the Celtics will play and when. So join us today as we announce the Celtics regular season schedule and look at some of the big dates and games that will feature our Celtics. To discussing Danny Ainge managing to get the Charlotte Hornets to agree to do a Sign and Trade deal for Gordon Hayward which has given the Celtics the biggest Trade Exception in NBA History. Has Danny Ainge used it on anyone since the deal was made official earlier this week. Or will we see Ainge hold off and wait for later on this season or even next summer to use it. What about the moves for Jeff Teague and Tristan Thomson where do we think they should fall in the Celtics pecking order. Should Thompson be giving the spot of starting center as the veteran big man of the team or should that spot be given again to Daniel Theis or even given to another big like Robert Williams. Jeff Teague should he be given the role of backup pg behind Kemba and if so what does this mean for Marcus Smart is it a better idea to have him start in Gordon Haywards spot or should someone else take it. We debate all of that on this episode of Celtics Talk Radio. We will be joined by fellow Celtics Fan Andrew Vernon as well as NBA Baseline co-host Warren Shaw

The 2020-20201 NBA Season is a go after the NBA Owners and Players managed to come to an agreement to amend the CBA and work out an agreement that would satisfy both sides. The 2020-2021 Season will feature a 72 game season. 3 nights ago the NBA had the 2020 NBA Draft which saw the Celtics have 3 1st round picks to work with. Then less then 48 hours later Danny Ainge and the rest of the NBA teams had the next big part of the off season schedule to worry about. NBA Free Agency. The NBA and the players agreed to make the salary cap for the 2020-2021 season 109.1 million with a luxury tax amount of 132.6 million. So it has been 24 hours since the opening of free agency and we are 18 hours away from the time that contracts can officially start being signed by players to join their teams for the 2020-2021 season. So what has happened for the Boston Celtics over the past 24 hours between the player/team option contracts for Gordon Hayward, Jayson Tatum, Daniel Theis, Enes Kanter, Robert Williams and Semi Ojeleye. Did any of them remain Celtics via their contract options or did they hit the free agency market? What about the 3 1st round picks from this past Wednesdays draft night. Did Danny Ainge manage to make a trade up in the draft to get a high prospect or trade for a veteran or did he strike out and end up with 3 college players? What rumors are we hearing for the free agency market. Could we see Gordon Hayward leaving in less then 24 hours or is he expected to remain a Celtics player? Is Danny Ainge gonna be able to get a legit big man after failing to get one last season? Those questions and more are discussed on tonights Free Agency Special.

The Celtics have been rumored to be interested in trading the 3 1st round picks to move up in the NBA Draft. Or using the pick to sweeten a deal for a potential deal for a veteran player. Also what about Gordon Hayward. Who reports say would like to leave the Boston Celtics if he can find the right deal elsewhere. Could we see a sign and trade deal potentially invovling some of the 1st round picks to sweeten the deal for the Celtics trade partner in exchange for pieces the Celtics may want like the rumors of the Celtics interested in Indiana Pacers Victor Oladipo and Myles Turner. So join Daniel and Kevin who will be running the show today and their guest will be Celtics fans Andrew Vernon and Murry E Baskerville as we announce the NBA Draft picks as they are announced and give our thoughts on the moves made by the NBA teams in the 1st round of the Draft and announce any trades that were made

However before the Celtics can even start planning on what they are gonna do to try and prepare themselves to right the ship in what will be a more tougher Eastern Conference next season they and all the other NBA teams must wait for the NBA Owners, Players Association and the Commissioner to come to an agreement on several key issues for next season.

Less then 2 weeks ago things couldnt have been better for Celtics Nation. They had managed to eliminate the defending NBA Champion Toronto Raptors. Fans felt they had just overcome their biggest obstacle in a run to the NBA Finals and now all they had to do was beat the 5th seeded Miami Heat in order to get back to the NBA Finals for the 1st time since 2010. However the Celtics and their fans were brought back down to eart quickly by the Miami Heat after losing games 1 and 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals. 2 losses that resulted in an argument in the Celtics locker room after the game 2 loss and required head coach Brad Stevens to call a private meeting amongst to top players to resolve their issues late that night. The Celtics would get some help in game 3 as Gordon Hayward would return and help the Celtics win the game to pull to within 2 games to 1. However after a 3 day break the Celtics returned in game 4 and returned back to their way of play that cost them the first 2 games of the series and ultimately allowed Miami Heat rookie Tyler Herro to score 37 points in route to a Miami Heat win that put the Celtics on the brink of elimination and facing a challenge that has only been done successfully 13 times prior. To win an NBA Playoff series after falling down 3 games to 1. So did the Celtics get the job done last night in game 5 to get the 1st of 3 straight wins they need to make history as the 14th win to beat this challenge or did they fail and have their season for the 3rd time in 4 years end in the Eastern Conference Finals. We will be joined by 4 guest tonight Josue Pavon (@Joe_Sway on twitter) Celtics/NBA writer for Heavy.com and CLNS. Mike Dynon (@MikeDynon on twitter) Celtics Fan and writer for Redsarmy.com. Andrew Vernon Celtics fan and writer on the Green and White Celtics Fan Blog. Kevin Dixon host of N The Zone Sports Talk Radio.

Its the Eastern Conference Finals and for the Celtics it may be time to hit the panic button after just 2 games. The Celtics trail the Miami Heat 2 games to none after losing both games in the same fashion. Blowing double digit 2nd half leads. The Celtics in game 1 manage to force overtime before ultimately losing 117-114. Then in game 2 the Celtics had a 17 point lead and ultimately a bad 3rd quarter allowed the Miami Heat to take a double digit lead and ultimately win the game 106-101 to take the 2-0 series lead. The frustration for the Celtics after game 2 was so obvious on the faces of the players as they got off the court and it was more obvious in the locker room after the game as reports said a major argument between the players broke out that potentially involved items being thrown in the locker room and players swearing. At halftime of game 2 reports were being put out saying that Jaylen Brown was getting upset over the lack of shots he was being given. So with a 2-0 series defecit and the team appearing as though they are now starting to have issues with each other while struggling to beat a team that many felt they should have be beating. Daniel and Igor will be joined by Sports Anchor Bobby Krivitsky (@Bobbykrivitsky on twitter) and CLNS Celtics Postgame host Matt Rury (@TeamGreenTruth on twitter) as they discuss can the Celtics come back and win this series. Should fans be worried that theres a crack in the celtics locker room after the reported arguement in the locker room after game 2. Does this series simply come down to can the Celtics get Gordon Hayward back or not. Also we will announce the remained of the Eastern Conference Finals schedule that was announced after game 2. PLus we will look at the Western Conferenc Finals matchup between the Lakers and Nuggets

GAME 7. 2 words that sports fans love to hear but athletes try to avoid. The Boston Celtics and Toronto Raptors seasons both came down to a winner takes all Game 7 matchup last night in Orlando. A game 7 where the winner would move onto the Eastern Conference Finals and take on the Miami Heat for the right to play in the NBA Finals while the loser would be sent home to spend the summer asking the question WHAT IF. The Celtics won games 1 and 2 then lost game 3 on a buzzard beating 3 from Raptors forward OJ Anunoby to make it 2-1. Then lost game 4 in a close battle to tie the series up 2-2. The Celtics would then win game 5 in dominating fashion before blowing their 1st chance to clinch the series in game 6 as they failed with a double overtime loss that featured a horrendous performance from PG Kemba Walker and some bad turnovers and plays from the young duo of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. So the Celtics last night put it all on the line with a lot riding on the outcome of game 7. The Celtics and Raptors battled in a game that came down to the wire for the 2nd game in a row and the 3rd time in the series before ultimatly some big players by Marcus Smart and Jayson Tatum sealed the deal to give the Celtics the victory. WE will be joined by Rich Conte (@RichConte on twitter) Producer and Host of the Techlife Podcast, Rich A Jensen (@RichAJensen on twitter) contributor to Redsarmy.com and Kevin Dixon host of N The Zone Talk Radio as we duscuss the Celtics big win and look towards the potential matchup between the Celtics and the Miami Heat

Put the brooms away Celtics fans cause we officially have a series between our Boston Celtics and the Toronto Raptors. The Celtics after winning game 1 in dominating fashion then just managing to squeak out a win in game 2 were poised to take a 3-0 series lead and all but end the Toronto Raptors season but 1 defensive mistake cost them the chance to take that 3-0 series lead and instead has made the series 2-1 in favor of the Celtics. The Celtics lost last nights game 3 by a final score of 104-103 in a game that saw both teams go back and forth and exchange the lead in the 4th quarter. Kemba Walker connected with Daniel Theis for a 2 hand slam with 0.5 seconds left in the game to give the Celtics a 2 point lead. The Celtics celebrated with Kemba throwing his fist into the air thinking they had the game won. Only for the Raptors to snatch away the victory from the hands of defeat with a game winning 3 pointer by OG Anunoby who was left wide open on the ensuing play by Jaylen Brown. We will discuss the top stories from this game. The bad decision by Jaylen Brown to leave a wide open Anunoby in the corner to guard Marc Gasol near the rim despite a 2 point shot only forcing a tie and overtime. The play of the Boston bench who for the 3rd straight game had a great performance and for the 1st time in the series actually won the battle of the benches. The Raptors decision to go to the zone and the effect it had putting the Celtics offensive attack to a halt and if thats something Celtics fans should worry about. Plus the performances of the Boston starters who each member of the starting lineup lost their 1 on 1 matchup to their Toronto counterpart and should Boston be worried they might have given Toronto life.
