After opening the season something of a mess on the offensive end of the court, the Boston Celtics have turned the ship around, with gusto.
Not only have they gone from one of the league's worst teams in terms of putting points up, but have morphed into one of the league's most elite offensive units over the last five games. Even when missing multiple key players due to minor injuries and illness, they have still found ways to keep winning, owning the league's longest win streak. They even made history against the Chicago Bulls, breaking several league and franchise records in that 56-point victory. Join Mark Allison and Justin Quinn as they cover the offensive renaissance, and try to forgive Justin's microphone, which somehow sounds like he's talking through an old vinyl record.

The Boston Celtics had themselves a game against the New Orleans Pelicans, the offense clicking after some much-overdue starting lineup tinkering. Does that single game show us enough positive things that we can relax about the team's 10-10 start? Should we even worry about the start at all? Plenty of teams have done as bad or worse and made the postseason, some even as far as the finals. Join Luis Gonzalez and Topher Lane as they debate the current state of the green and white, as well as catch up on Boston-relevant news around the league.

First of all, Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours from the CelticsLife crew.
There's not a whole lot to be thankful for lately as a Celtics fan, but Topher Lane and Justin Quinn try their best to take the long view yet again, looking at Boston's rough start and the options out there that might be a solution. We had some technical issues, so apologies about the subpar audio, and we recorded this before the New York Knicks debacle. so take what we have to say with a grain of salt. We're inching back towards the precipice ourselves, so let us know why we shouldn't take the next ticket onto the Panic Bus in the comments below, or maybe help us calm down a bit, because the Cs sure as hell aren't.

This week, things are changing in the Atlantic Division, with Jimmy Butler heading to the Philadelphia 76ers. How will it affect the Boston Celtics? Will it work out? Who's the "winner" of this deal, if anyone? The slate of games for the Cs finally relaxes a bit after a murder's row to start the season, and there's other movement of note around the league to take into consideration. Join Topher Lane and Justin Quinn as they break down all of the news of the week, and even dabble in a little NBA conspiracy talk as some unusual coincidences spark some reflection on the league's tin foil hat topics.

This week, Topher Lane and Mark Allison try to make sense of the rumors swirling around a one Terry Rozier, as well as the lingering rust the Boston Celtics are slowly shaking off early in the season.

The Boston Celtics are back on their game, and while they have some kinks left to work out, the team we expected to be watching this season is showing up, and it's noticeable.
And it's not just the Celtics who are looking good, with the Boston Red Sox having just won a World Series, and the Celts will face the league's last remaining undefeated team, the Milwaukee Bucks, on Thursday for what will likely be the team's biggest test of the season to date. This week, Mark Allison and Justin Quinn get into all these issues and more, ranging from cannabis' future as medicine in the league to Tyronn Lue's firing from the Cleveland Cavaliers, Robert Williams' surprising early development, and even a cameo by the Evil Emperor himself.

With week one of the 2018-19 NBA regular season behind us, we have a very small sample of games to give us an early idea about what the coming weeks, months, and season may look like. While it might be far too small a sample size for any definitive takes, we are already beginning to see some of the issues concerning depth and roles having an impact on games, and player recovery is still clearly an issue. In the long run, some of these issues may even turn out to be complimentary, as the Celtics considerable depth may help them recover and stay as healthy as possible for an expectation heavy playoff run. Join Mark Allison and Justin Quinn this week as they break down the early on-court results for the Cs, and catch up on the goings-on of Rajon Rondo and the rest of the league in a spicy start to the season.
