Larry Bird Boston Celtics Mvp

Posted in Boston on 10.03.10

Larry Bird’s impact on NBA basketball history was immediate. For the 1980 season Larry Bird led the Celtics to superstardom legacy. Bird was named the league’s Rookie of The Year and was voted onto the Eastern Conference All Star-Team. He was honored with this title all for all of his twelve seasons of his career in the NBA. He was scoring 12 points per game, 10 rebounds per game, an outstanding 143 steals and second in assists.

In Bird’s second professional season- he led the Celtics to the NBA Playoffs. Larry Bird helped the Celtics’ deficit by helping them overcome and winning the last three games, which propelled the Celtics into the NBA Finals. They defeated the Houston Rockets in six games.

In 1984 Bird earned the award for Most Valuable Player by defeating the Los Angeles Lakers in a seven game final. The following year, the Boston Celtics would have another incredible winning year by defeating The Rockets in six games. Bird again was honored with the Finals MVP Award for that year, averaging 24 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.

In 1987 Bird made his final appearance for the Celtics against the Milwaukee Bucks and the Detroit Pistons. That year the Celtics ended up losing to the unmatched Lakers in six games and to the Detroit Pistons in 1988.

Bird’s body continued to deteriorate to injuries to debilitating back problems and to bone spurs in his heels. Both these conditions would eventually lead to his retirement in 1992. Unwilling to stop due to injuries, he joined Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan to play in the United States basketball team for the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, Spain. Names the “Dream Team”- they defeated their competition to win the Gold Medal for the United States Basketball Olympic Team.

Boston Celtics Tickets And Seating Chart

Posted in Boston on 08.03.10


For many, just the mention of the name of the Boston Celtics incites them to excitement and anticipation of the action that these guys bring to the floor virtually every time there’s a game and the Celtics are involved. Whether it’s their recent fall to the Atlanta Hawks on their own territory in their most recent game against the Hawks or one of the many wins the Celtics have experienced on their home court. Although Rajon Rondo lead with 17 points in the first half, it wasn’t enough to keep the team from losing and the victory went to the Hawks 102-96. The game on January 11th marks the second loss for the Celtics in the month of January. The balance of the games for the month have been wins against the Toronto Raptors 103-96, Miami Heat 112-106, and against the Raptors again on January 10th with a final score of 114-107.

Some might argue that the games have been pretty close and that it could have easily tossed up to be anyone’s game but fans, players and coaches are most likely inclined to tell you that it’s because the Celtics have a great team and they’ve been on their game for this season. Games remaining in January are against the Atlanta Hawks, New Jersey Nets, Chicago Bulls, Dallas Mavericks, Detroit Pistons, Portland TrailBlazers, Los Angeles Clippers, Orlando Magic and Los Angeles Lakers. Many fans are already anticipating home games such as the ones where the Celtics take on the Bulls and the Lakers.

With several full months of playing opportunities still ahead for the Celtics, it is very possible that the Celtics will keep their game tight and take it as far as they can go. Certainly fans want to see these players on the court, showing off their skills and taking home as many victories as possible.

There is a wealth of options to enjoying the Celtics play at home. Whether you’re looking to have a top notch luxury experience where expense is no object or you want single tickets for the whole season or just a game, you can find just about all of the choices that come to mind at the TD Banknorth Garden. Some of the most exclusive seating choices at this venue are the executive suites, which are perfect for entertaining groups of various sizes in privacy and comfort while enjoying the Celtics play.

Premium seating for groups of four to six is available in The Lofts. These seating options are the perfect way to provide your guests with an all inclusive entertainment package that includes excellent sites of the court. Your guests will be impressed with everything from the five-course menu to the heightened excitement of a live game with an excellent view. Die hard Celtics fans may want to invest in the SportsDeck level where you can treat yourself to a full service wait staff, complimentary appetizers and soft drinks as well as a high-end bar.

Fan boxes are also available for groups up to six and offer in-suite wait service and the chance to enjoy the game with fellow fans. Similar to full suite rentals, fan boxes are for those who are more price conscious and don’t mind sharing the space with other fans. From the premium seating options of club seating, SportsDeck, The Board Room, Ledge 6 to Suite Levels 5, 6, and Balcony seating, there’s a seating option for even the most discriminating taste.

Located in Boston’s Downtown North section on Causeway Street, this venue is easily accessible from many directions but if you are driving to the stadium, you can expect some delays up to an hour before the game so plan to arrive early enough to get to your seat in time.

NBA – Rajon Rondo Signs a $55M five year extension with the Boston Celtics

Posted in Boston on 02.03.10


The Boston Celtics had until this Monday night to reach an agreement regarding a contract extension with point guard Rajon Rondo. Rumor has it that the five year deal will exceed the $55 million mark, making him one of the top 10 best paid NBA guards. Rondo and the Boston Celtics management agreed upon most of the terms of the contract last Sunday night, prompted by what the 23 year old player had been proving since his training camp begun this season. It was up to general manager Danny Ainge and owner Wyc Grousbeck to sign the player for another 5 years. They seemed a little hesitant about rehiring the player at first. All though he has been criticized for not really scoring much, or shooting much for that matter (he only attempted 23 shots in the first 4 games of the season) it is not his shooting average (a decent 57% field-goal average) nor his impressive rebound-assist numbers that were been questioned. Rather his leadership skills and the way he integrates with the rest of the team that had his bosses discussing whether to keep him or let him go as a restricted free agent. Bill Duffy, Rondo’s agent, agreed that the salary might have been higher had the player opted for a free agent negotiation with a different team. Yet, Rondo also realized that Boston has a championship-winning squad this season, and the temptation of taking another NBA title has its own very strong pull. Celtics head coach, Doc Rivers, expressed his happiness with the decision made by the board to keep Rondo around for another five seasons. He was also pleased that it was over with, so they did not have to keep talking about it anymore, and focus on what really matte: the season that is just starting. And what a way to start this has been. The Boston Celtics have proved to be one of the strongest teams in the league in the first weeks of the season. A more then respectable 5-0 streak leaves the team in the first place of the Atlantic Standings. Rondo is earning $2.3 million dollars this season, the last of his rookie contract. He averaged 11.9 points, 5.2 rebounds and 8.2 assists per game last season, but was able to bring the numbers to near triple-double in the playoffs with star forward Kevin Garnett by his side. So yeah, he has issues with scoring, but he has also proved a good distributor for the Boston Celtics, piling up his assists numbers in the games. All though having Kevin Garnett in the inside, and Ray Allen on the perimeter certainly help those high numbers. He has talent, that’s for sure. But he has also found some criticism from the specialized press, which finds him immature and cocky. He is athletic and plays real hard on defense, and with his fast long arms can get many steals and deflect the ball off trajectory. But that’s not all that count in the court. His last argument with New Orleans Hornets, Chris Paul, just did not help his case. Rondo’s attitude and comments toward Paul were so shabby and unprofessional, that Ray Allen, one of the classiest players in the NBA, allegedly apologized to Paul for Rondo’s foolish behavior. The season is still ahead for Rondo and the Celtics. Perhaps a little less talking and a bit more of scoring wouldn’t hurt his intentions of taking another championship. He has the team and the talent to do so. Throw in a little humbleness and maturity into the equation, and they might just do so.
