Celtics Talk Radio

In what will be the final episode of Celtics Talk Radio here on Blogtalkradio.com before we move to our new platform. The Celtics Talk Radio Crew will recap the Celtics winning games 3 and 4 of their 1st round playoff series in Brooklyn, N.Y. which gave the Celtics a 4-0 series win over the Nets. The Celtics basically did what no one was expecting them to do which was sweep the Nets out of the playoffs and now the Celtics will move on to the 2nd round to play the Milwaukee Bucks. The Celtics in that 1st round made both Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant look bad with their stiffling defense. As Kyrie Irving had 1 good game in game 1 and 3 straight bad games to end the series. While Kevin Durant had 3 bad games to start the series before having a good game in the win or go home game 4 but his performance wasnt enough to save the Nets. Meanwhile the duo of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown both played well in the 1st round with Tatum averaging nearly 30 points a game and Brown averaging nearly 23 a game. So what did the

The NBA Playoffs are here. The Boston Celtics finished as the #2 seed in the Eastern Conference and for the 2nd year in a row will play in the 1st round the #7 seeded Brooklyn Nets. The Celtics of course will likely go throughout the entire series without the services of Robert Williams. Meanwhile the Brooklyn Nets reprts say could get the services of Ben Simmons for this matchup but that is still to be determined. The Celtics took the season series 3 games to 1. Of course throughout the regular season the Brooklyn Nets were hindered by the Covid-19 Restrictions that the City of New York had in place which prevented All-Star PG Kyrie Irving from playing in home games. Those restrictions have since been lifted and he will be able to play all games in this series. The winner of this series will take on the winner of the Milwaukee Bucks and the Chicago Bulls. Many Celtics fans seemed to want this matchup despite the fact it was arguably the hardest matchup of all 3 matchups the Celtics could end up with in round

We have finally reach the end of the NBA Regular Season. The Boston Celtics after starting the regular season looking like they were destined to possibly be a play in tournament team. Or even a team that would be likely to miss the playoffs. The Celtics used a major 2nd half run to get themselves into the running for the #1 seed in the Eastern Conference. Proving that when healthy they could beat anyteam in the NBA giving fans hope that maybe an NBA Title could happen this season if the team actually played to their full potential. However the Celtics then lost Robert Williams III to an injury which could have him miss the 1st round of the playoffs. Questions about which of their players are vaccinated and which ones arent could make a potential matchup in round 1 with the Toronto Raptors even more difficult if that were to happen. So with just 1 day left in the NBA Regular Season schedule. What seed did the Celtics end up with? Are they still in a situation where they could move up or move down in the standi

January 6th Celtics Fans. Do you remember that date Celtics Fans? It was a day that the Celtics lost to the New York Knicks 108-105 to fall to 18-21 and fell to the 11th spot in the Eastern Conference. After that game many Celtics fans talked about boycotting the season. Celtics insiders, reporters and analysts were questioning the heart and hustle of this team and said something needed to change and maybe Celtics GM Brad Stevens needed to blow it up. Ultimately something did happen ladies and gentleman however I dont think anybody was expecting what we have gotten. Its been 79 days since that loss at Madison Square Garden and the Boston Celtics have gone from a team that looked like they were destined for at best the play in tournament and a 1st round exit in the NBA Playoffs at the hands to one of the Eastern Conference Powerhouses to a team that is now fighting for the right to be the #1 seed in the Eastern Conference Playoffs. Yes your read that correctly the Boston Celtics could very well be your #1 seed

The playoff race in the Eastern Conference is heating up with just under a month left in the NBA Regular Season. The Celtics have 13 games left on their schedule and right now have made many believe they have a legit shot to make it to the Eastern Conference Finals and possibly to the NBA Finals. The last 2 questions for some fans have been. Can the Celtics win it all and obviously will they win it all. The Celtics this week in a big week for Celtics Nation had a great chance to answer that first question of can the Celtics win it all. As they took on the Dallas Mavericks at TD Garden on the night that featured the Boston Celtics retiring Kevin Garnetts #5 jersey to the rafters and featured several members of the 2008 NBA Championship team including both Paul Pierce and Ray Allen appearing showing the issue between Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen is officially past them. Other players to make the trip to Boston included Kendrick Perkins, Eddie House, James Posey, Glen Davis, Leon Powe and of course Brian Scalabri

Could the Boston Celtics actually end up with the #1 spot in the Eastern Conference for the NBA Playoffs this season? Yes ladies an gentleman a question that not even the most positive minded fans would have thought to ask themselves might now have to start being questioned. The Celtics thanks to a dominant month of February where they won 11 of 13 games the Celtics went from being a team that was fighting just to earn the right to be in the Wild Card Pay In Tournament games. To now being just 4.5 games behind the Miami Heat for the #1 seed in the Eastern Conference and just 2 games behind the Chicago Bulls and Philadelphia 76ers for the #2 and #3 seeds and just 1 game back of the Milwaukee Bucks for the #4 seed. The Celtics will have a chance to make up a ton of ground in the coming week if they can win their next 2 games which will feature them facing the Brooklyn Nets and the Charlotte Hornets as all 4 teams in front of them will either be facing each other or some of the other top NBA Teams meaning they c

The NBA Trade Deadline has come and gone and now we have reached the NBA All-Star Break. The NBA returns to game action this Thursday where it will be full speed ahead to the NBA Playoffs. The Celtics at last weeks Trade Deadline finally made some moves to improve the roster and potentially the outlook of the team going forward and in return got Derrick White from the San Antonio Spurs and Daniel Theis from the Houston Rockets. We will look back at those deals and discuss the impact of those moves going forward and what Brad Stevens should be looking to do next to help the roster improve. Should he be looking at the buyout market or go after players who are waived in hopes of filling roster spots that are now open for the rest of the season and if so for who? The Celtics meanwhile during that deadline were on a winning streak that reached 9 games in a row. It started with their 107-97 win over the Pelicans on the road back on January 29th and finished with a 135-87 blowout win over Joel Embiid and the Philade

The Celtics and the rest of the NBA are just 5 days from the 12 days from the NBA All-Star Break. The Celtics in the previous week played 2 big games against teams that were ahead of them in the standings hoping to show Celtics GM Brad Stevens and Celtics Nation that maybe they have what it takes to make a playoff run and not to make any big trades at the deadline which is February 10th 3PM ET. The Celtics played both the Miami Heat who were the #1 seeded team in the Eastern Conference. Then the Charlotte Hornets who are the #7 seeded team in the East. The Celtics went into both games healthy while both of their opponents went into the games missing players giving the Celtics an advantage. The Celtics managed to beat both those teams and the results had many saying the team is looking much better and playing the way they should BUT we arent sold yet on them cause of the players who were missing or its only 2 games. So do our host agree with them or not? Meanwhile during the last week Steve Bulpett of Heavy.co

DECISIONS. DECISIONS. We are nearing the February 10th date where many have felt that the Boston Celtics management will officially let all of Celtics Nation know if they are putting all their chips in to try and be a title contender this season or if they are waiving the white flag for this season and will wait atleast another season and try maybe to make next season the year where they fulfill the promise they made to the Celtics fans by joining the ranks of the NBA's Elite and become an NBA powerhouse who has a legit shot to win an NBA Championship. February 10th is the NBA Trade Deadline. Rumors have been spreading around the leage according to insiders saying that the Celtics have made every players on the team available except for Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Robert Williams. The Celtics could opt to put all thei chips in and try and get another player or 2 who could help the team and try and make a run for the playoffs and see what happens this season by using players we got a chips and trade excepti

The Celtics took on the Philadelphia 76ers last night looking to win their 4th game in a row to try and get their record to a 22-21 record. Meaning they just played their 43rd game of the season. Meaning they have officially played more then half of their 82 game schedule. Meaning the Celtics time to try and make a run for a top seed in the Eastern Conference is starting to get shorter and shorter. So where do they stand in the standings? Do they look like a championship team or do they once again look like a team destined to let Celtics Nation down? We discuss where the team sits in the standings. Also knowing they now have less then half their games left before the season ends and based on where the team is in the standings we discuss how much longer can the team delay before making the big decision which is to either make a massive change to the roster and make a playoff push or tank the rest of the season and try to get a decent asset for the trade market this summer but dont fight just to waste your time
