It’s with sadness that we offer up an RIP for Dan Ventura, the true patron saint of Massachusetts high school sports. A relentless worker and a great friend. One last 🥃 from that New Orleans bar during Super Bowl week, 2002.

My prognosis is encouraging, and, hopefully, I'll see you on the flip side. Then you can resume sharing how misguided you feel I am in some of the views I express in the Boston Globe, on 98.5 The Sports Hub, and NBC Sports Boston.😀 I’m really looking forward to that normalcy.✌🏽

My uncle’s comments were hurtful and wrong. I unequivocally condemn what he said.

Marcus Smart relished his role as the “longest tenured Celtic.” Truly sad he didn’t get to win a title here. Curious how this team will resurrect its defensive identity without its best, most voracious stopper.

Celtics are not messing around with their coaching staff. Now two experienced assistants join Joe Mazzulla with the additions of Sam Cassell and Charles Lee.

Charles Lee is finalizing a deal to join the Boston Celtics as the lead assistant coach, sources tell ESPN. Lee had been the associate head coach with Milwaukee and a finalist for the Toronto and Detroit head jobs.

In my 44 years of being associated with the NBA I never thought I’d see a Boston Celtics team, a franchise with 17 Championships, quit. I know Celtics fans all over the world must be disgusted and devastated. The Miami Heat blew them out 128-102 in Game 3.

Could Sunday’s Game 7 loss to Boston be Doc Rivers’ last as Sixers’ coach? inquirer.com/sixers/sixers-d… via @phillyinquirer #Sixers

Could Sunday’s Game 7 loss to Boston be Doc Rivers’ last as Sixers’ coach?

Joel Embiid finally won an MVP under Rivers, but that might put even more pressure on ownership to take action after the disappointing result of this season's playoff exit.
