CelticsBlog (Jack Jemsek) —
Looking back at May 16 th "Per Diem" article by John Hollinger at ESPN Insider , which was written after the Celtics -Sixers series was tied after 2 games, I found a little bit of comfort. Since the C's lost on Friday to drop back to 2-2 in the series, my hopes of being one of the 31% of fans at CelticsBlog that thought it would be the "Celtics in 5 games" were dashed. Most (43%) thought...

Did the Boston Celtics take the bait? After the Celtics easily handled the Philadelphia 76ers in Game 3, reclaiming home-court advantage and the upper hand in their series with a convincing win, Sixers coach Doug Collins tried to plant a seed of overconfidence in Gang Green. “I think they are looking at that other series [...]

Who said a team's chances were set in stone? The folks at Bovada have released updated betting odds for the Indiana Pacers / Miami Heat and their chances of coming out of the Eastern Conference to hoisting the Larry O'Brien Trophy.

The Celtics are the better team. I believe that down to my bones. But the saying goes, you are what your record says you are and right now we're all even with the Sixers in the 2nd round of the playoffs. This team consistently manages to be inconsistent and it is maddening. We know they can do so much more because we see it so often. In the very last game the Celtics led from wire to...

Sheridan Hoops (Jon Marks) —
PHILADELPHIA — This was like spotting Tom Brady and the Patriots two quick touchdowns in the opening minutes, then spending the rest of the half doing everything else wrong.

Yahoo.com: Ball Don't Lie (Kelly Dwyer) —
Los Angeles Lakers 99, Oklahoma City Thunder 96 (Thunder lead series 2-1) Game 1 was the blowout, the startling realization that the Oklahoma City Thunder remained a championship-level force to be reckoned with, even after a week-long layoff. Game 2 was the ugly nail-biter, the one that Los Angeles let get away. Game 3? It wasn't perfect. But it was fantastic, end-to-end playoff basketball....

Promoted FanPost I didn't realize this until finally looking at the numbers (it took a few hours to summon the courage!), but here is why the Celtics lost the game... You know how when playing basketball, if you get up by too many points too early, you suddenly slide into "complacency mode?"
