Upcoming Release: Air Jordan 7 Retro "Orion Blue"

The latest Jordan retro release information has recently been published. The Air Jordan 7 Retro "Orion Blue's" are set to drop on March 26, 2011. These retro 7's will be released along with other AJ7's such as the Bordeaux's and the Cardinal's. Personally, I think these are the freshest of the three that are dropping next year...however everyone knows that the greatest 7's of all time are the AJ7 "Hare" (pictured below).

Shaq Reacts To His $35,000 Fine

A couple days ago, Shaq was hit with a $35,000 fine from the NBA. Read the full statement below:

Shaquille O’Neal has been fined $35,000 for public comments about the officiating, it was announced today by Stu Jackson, NBA Executive Vice President, Basketball Operations.
The incident occurred following the Celtics’ 86-78 loss to the Orlando Magic on Saturday night.

 Then before shoot around yesterday, this was Shaq's response to his fine...

   

And this is why we are the best team in the league..the Celtics are just full of players who have been around so long that nothing phases them. 14 game win-streak with half our team injured? Check. $35,000 fine? Don't care.

Eminem featuring Jay-Z, Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, Cashis, Stat Quo – Syllables

I'm baaack! I, DB, the other half of this blog-duo, have been on a small hiatus from the blogging scene, but am officially back in the game. Pretty much what happened was I was busy with school, then went on vacation. Hey, what can I say, I had do set my priorities, and school and vacation had to take charge for a little while. But now I'm back, I'm back, I'm back again, and better than ever. Here is a new track from Dre, Em, Fitty, HOVA, and a few others. Is it from Dre's long awaited Detox album? Is it even a good song? Who's verse was best? Is there a best verse? Take a listen and decide for yourself. Damn it feels good to be back.

Rondo Can Do Whatever The Hell He Wants

Remember back before the start of the season Rajon Rondo told the media this:

"Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo is saving his money in the event of an NBA lockout. NBA commissioner David Stern says he wants to cut player salaries by one-third.

Rondo says he's "saving a lot of money this year." He is scheduled to make $9 million this season."

This made me (and probably a lot of people) believe that Rondo would be very conservative with his new 5 year, 55 million dollar contract. But on twitter last night, he showed us that he was staying entertained with this expensive video game system while nursing his sprained ankle with the photo below. I like this, you know why? Rondo can do whatever ever the hell he wants. He says he's gonna save money, and a few months later BOOM, $5000+ dollar video game. Don't care. #1 point guard in the league.

Here's our first installment of our Christmas Oriented Old School Banger's. We will have a ton of retro xmas songs from now until the 25th! Stay tuned!

Celtics 116 - Knicks 115

Take a bow Paul. If you missed this game, all you need to watch is the clip below. Definitely one of the best regular season games in recent memory. Sorry Spike, take you and your Fields jersey and go sit back in your seat!!!!!! Better luck next time, NY.

Oh, by the way, there is no rivalry. This game does not make it a rivalry. Why was everyone trying to make a rivalry between these two teams? This was just some classic, good old, regular season basketball.

KG's Christmas Edition Shoes

Shown above is a photo of Kevin Garnett's Christmas Edition Anta's. I'm sure we will all be looking forward to Christmas day for the match-up between Orlando and Boston, but to all the true sneaker heads out there, we have one extra thing to look forward to that day - the dope exclusives Xmas oriented kicks that many of the players wear. Can't wait to see what Semih Erden is gonna be rocking that day........

Monster Monday

Its been a while since we posted a Monster Monday, however the past few have been sub par. Today's Monster Monday is fire as Swizzy sampled 2pacs "California Love" beat with Maino and threw  Jadakiss, Jim Jones, and Joell Ortiz on it. Definitely worth a download....the link is posted after the jump.

Showdown at MSG on Wednesday Night

This Wednesday night the Celtics will be visiting Madison Square Garden to take on the Knicks. This is going to be a good game for many reasons. The Celtics are on a 10 game winning streak, and the Knicks are on a 8 game winning streak. Our records are very close in regards of the Atlantic division and it should play out to be a very interesting match-up as we all know the beef between KG and Amare.

Not to mention, Carmelo might get traded to the Knicks soon..(not cool)

Nice Kicks

Two Of The Ugliest Players in the NBA

This post is somewhat irrelevant, but I was happy to see this ugly mongoose-looking creature lose last night. Right now the Lakers record is 16-7, and our beloved Celtics record is 18-4 - not to mention we have about 5 hurt players and Jermaine O'neal has played like half a game all season. Things are looking good for Boston right now..not to mention the Sox getting 2 great players, and the Patriots just tearing shit up.

Oh. My. Goodness. Did he just do what I think he just did?? Breakin' ankles and posterizing someone? Yes, yes he did. Jeremy Pargo, younger brother of Jennero Pargo, plays pro ball in Israel. Man, he's not just playing, he's tearing it up. I think it's safe to say that this sequence of events is something that most basketball players want to say they did. Most never get to say they did either of these things. Even less get to do it in the same play. Jeremy Pargo did, though, and boy was it nice.

Customs Harasses Man Over Li-Ning Sneakers

Li-Ning is going to become pretty big, pretty fast. There shoes are ill, and their advertising is even iller. We haven't got to see B-Diddy rock his Li-Nings yet, because he hasn't been on the court to much, but a couple of others are holding it down for the brand. Guys like, Evan Turner, Jose Calderon, and Shaq. Let's see where this company goes in the next couple of years.

50 Tyson - Icey

50 Tyson's newest single is here! Entitled "Icey," this is yet another hit from the main man 50 Tyson to blast through your speakers. My only question is, why is this song called "Icey"? It should be called something like "Blazin'" or "Heat" because this song right here, is straight FIRE.

I Wonder How Much Money Was Bet On The Powder Toss..

Honestly, I am not a LeBron hater. The only time I hate him is when he faces the Celtics...but besides then, I can't say I don't like him. If you actually think about all the stuff he has gone through in his career with the media and all, I'm pretty sure 95% of the people who talk shit about him would crumble within the first year if they were in his position. Last night he was in a stadium of 20,562 people who hate him and he still went out there with a grin on his face, tossed powder in the air, and dropped 38 on the Cavs while getting booed the whole time. If that's not a true ballers mindset, then I don't what is.

etc.

Couldn't think of a better way to follow up Bill Russell..

Article: "Give Bill Russell A Damn Statue"

Article: "Give Bill Russell A Damn Statue" by Paul Flannery talks about how Boston should give Celtic great, Bill Russell a statue near the TD Garden for all that he has accomplished. I found this to be a very interesting article as I learned a few things that I never really knew about Russell. The article mentioned very intriguing facts and also included the interview he had with Kevin Garnett when he joined the team (posted after the jump). Reading this article and then watching the video after would give any real Celtics aficionado goosebumps. With that said, consider me on the bandwagon for giving Bill Russell a statue.
