Celtics have a new cult hero

Tommy Heinsohn, king of the homers.

so why Rondo isn't a cult hero?

The kids got some Defense i'll give him that much.... what remains of the other parts of his game is yet to be seen....

Kid has a future...and a nice jump shot to go along with his tenacious defensive play..runs the floor like a gazelle...great pickup by "Red" Ainge...

I said last year what I will re-state here and now. Mike is on a short leash. If there isn't fast and sustained improvement, he will gone. Before I said he had until All Star break at the latest to show impressive improvement. The shortened season throws a monkey wrench in that prediction since with no break, I don't know what to use as a mark for justifiable termination.

Justifiable termination?

Isn't being a horrible coach enough?

Heinsohn is showing his age,
Thw memory is the first to go

Try and imagine how Johnny Most would have framed it......

Most of that team reminds me of Russell. Really old.

NOBODY wants to be known as "the new Greg Kite".

Or Rick Robey.

Heinsohn and Fred Flintstone--separated at birth.

I don't think Mike falls into the category of "terrible". He's better than some and not as good as others. I mean come on. He's no Flip Saunders.

I like the Knicks this year, but the problem is, two of the most important players, Melo and Amare, are NOT committed to playing tough defense often enough on that end of the floor.

Hope the guy works out for the Celtics. They need the help.

Yes we do MMA.... Magic dominated the wiz last night for sure.... I fell asleep during the half-time of the Bos-NJ game... but we still won...
