The sight of watching Tyrese Haliburton recreate Reggie Miller’s iconic choke gesture 31 years later should’ve hit home especially for the Boston Celtics, who wallowed in their failure watching the Eastern Conference finals from home. It should’ve made every single person within the organization sick to their stomachs. Haliburton continued writing his legacy story on Wednesday night by guiding the Indiana Pacers past a 14-point deficit with 2:40 left in regulation to defeat the New York Knicks and take a 1-0 series lead. The 25-year-old drained a game-tying shot in the final seconds of the fourth quarter that, 31 years…

PHOTO: Boston Celtics/Facebook The Boston Celtics entered Madison Square Garden and not only found their shooting stroke but also rediscovered their winning ways, beating the New York Knicks and securing their first win of the series by the score of 115-93.Although their backs were against the wall, the Celtics did not abandon their game plan, which is to make threes at will.The only difference this time, however, was that they were going in. Kristaps Porzingis played more minutes in this game than he had in the first two games combined, which is good news for the Celtics.The defense stepped up…
BOSTON – There is a new king of the Boston City League. Defending back-to-back-to-back boys volleyball champion O’Bryant no longer wears the crown, as a tenacious Latin Academy team swept the champs, 3-0, at Emmanuel College. This was a rematch of last year’s city championship. Latin Academy was on the verge of a title a year ago, ahead, 2-1, entering the fourth set, but a resilient O’Bryant pulled off the comeback. That was not the case this year, as Latin Academy won each set – 25-22, 25-19, and 25-20 – in convincing manner. “Last year hurt,” said Latin Academy coach…
A member of one of India’s wealthiest families reportedly is part of the Celtics’ incoming ownership group. Aditya Mittal, the CEO of steel manufacturing giant ArcelorMittal, invested $1 billion in the Bill Chisholm-led $6.1 billion purchase of the franchise, according to a report Thursday from Sportico. Mittal “will likely be the second-largest stakeholder” in the Celtics behind Chisholm and could “potentially be the alternate governor in the future,” per Sportico. Current Celtics governor Wyc Grousbeck plans to remain in his role through the 2027-28 season before giving way to Chisholm. Mittal is a native of India and lives in London,…
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White is believed to be one of the very best defenders in the NBA by some. The NBA announced the All-Defensive teams for the 2024-25 campaign Thursday, but despite making the team in each of the last two seasons, White was snubbed. Evan Mobley, Draymond Green, Dyson Daniels, Lu Dort and Amen Thompson were named to the first team, while Toumani Camara, Rudy Gobert, Jaren Jackson Jr., Jalen Williams and Ivica Zubac were named to the second team. White received a pair of first-place votes, 11 second-place votes and 15 third-place votes, and was on the…

Twas a time when women had to carve out their spot in the golf world; when men ruled the fairways with men-only dedicated times, private clubs that forbade women as members on their own and of course: the notion that ladies are just out there socializing; that the skill required to play golf well is something men are born with but women not so much. Here in Massachusetts, where, as we prepare to celebrate Women’s Golf Day around the world, women have actually served as leaders in the sport since the start. Indeed, a full three years before men formed…
BOSTON (AP) — Brett Baty drove in three runs on two hits, including a two-run single to break a seventh-inning tie and help the New York Mets avert a three-game sweep by beating the Boston Red Sox 5-1 on Wednesday night.Baty also singled home Mark Vientos in the first to give the Mets a 1-0 lead. Francisco Lindor had a pair of hits, including a solo homer in the ninth, as New York won for just the second time in seven games.Huascar Brazobán (3-0) picked up the win after coming on with the bases loaded in the fifth and striking…
The Red Sox can’t catch a break at first base. Triston Casas suffered a season-ending knee injury at the beginning of the month, and less than a week after the 25-year-old went down, Romy González banged up his left quad on an in-game collision. González initially was projected to only miss a few days, but the utility man has been on the injured list since May 10. González’s activation from the IL isn’t imminent either, as Alex Cora on Wednesday revealed the 28-year-old suffered a setback in his rehab when he started running. “He’s not bouncing back the way we…
The Red Sox lost and I’m tired of writing the game recaps of them losing. They don’t really like winning on Wednesdays! They also hate being good when it isn’t beautiful weather outside. Crochet was solid, but the bullpen, after being so great the last two games, went back to being lackluster. You can’t blame the whole loss on the bullpen though, as the offense did nothing to help the pitchers either. Scoring only one run will usually not win you the game, especially against the Mets. Two Studs: Garrett Crochet: Not his greatest outing, but only giving up 1…
