P.J. Brown

Will Antonio McDyess-It-Up in Boston?

I sure hope so.
If Antonio McDyess joins the Celtics this season, he would have a similar impact that P.J. Brown did last season. Brown was not very effective during the regular season as he worked himself into playing shape, but when it came to playoff time, Brown was extremely effective. He hit huge shots to [...]

Celtics Player Review: Leon Powe

For all of the 2006-07 season and for the beginning of this past season as well, Leon Powe seemed nothing more than a guy riding the bench that might come in when the game is well out of reach or someone was in foul trouble.
Powe proved that he was capable of playing significant minutes in [...]

Celtics Player Review: Glen “Big Baby” Davis

One of the most lovable players on the Celtics, Glen “Big Baby” Davis has started his career off with a bang. No, he did not have outstanding numbers or Rookie of the Year recognition, but Glen Davis did make a “bang” everytime he fell into the crowd or onto photographers somewhere during a game.
The 6′9″, [...]

Celtics Player Review: P.J. Brown

P.J. Brown, who was retired at the beginning the season, became a key player for the Celtics down the stretch. He may not have played in a lot of games in the regular season, but during the playoffs P.J. had the role of back-up center to Kendrick Perkins.
The Celtics needed his veteran presence during the [...]

Celtics Fend Off Lakers in the 4th; Lead Series 2-0

The game seemed to be just about over when the Celtics were up by 22 points late in the second half, but the problem was that they were playing Kobe Bryant and the L.A. Lakers who have played quite a few late-game upsets recently. However, the Celtics were able to hold the Lakers and take [...]

Celtics Survive Fourth Quarter Scare; Lead Series 3-2

The Celtics had a large 17-point lead towards the end of the game, but it was far from over. The Detroit Pistons are not a team that can easily be counted out when there are still several minutes of basketball to be played, and they proved that. The Pistons provided quite the scare late in [...]

Celtics Finally Win on Road, Dominate Pistons

Kevin Garnett put the Celtics up by eight points midway through the second quarter with an emphatic dunk following a P.J. Brown block on the defensive end. It may not have represented a turning point in the game, but it certainly represented an exclamation point for the series: the Celtics are not dead and will [...]

KG, Celtics Continue to Dominate at Home

The NBA Eastern Conference Finals started tonight between the Celtics and Pistons in Boston. The Celtics took control of this game from the beginning.
