5 Reasons Why The Celtics Will Beat The Cavs

May 11, 2018April 26, 2020 Joe 1 Comment Basketball, Boston Celtics

They’re the underdogs…again.  They don’t care and neither should you. This Boston Celtics team is one of the most resilient teams we have ever seen in Boston.  That’s high praise for an organization that has won 17 titles and a city that has won ten titles in the last sixteen years overall.  The Celtics are […]

Why The Celtics Can Win The NBA Title THIS YEAR

May 6, 2018April 26, 2020 Joe Leave a comment Basketball, Boston Celtics, NBA Championship

Going into this year’s NBA Playoffs, the expectations for the Celtics were fairly low.  Despite being the #2 seed in the East, they were viewed as a team who simply had back luck with injuries.  While the season was still being viewed as a success, the feeling was that the Celtics may defeat the Bucks, […]

Another WINNING Boston Sports Weekend

April 15, 2018April 26, 2020 Joe Leave a comment Boston Bruins, Boston Celtics, Boston Red Sox

Twenty to thirty years from now, Boston sports fans are going to look at 2001 – 2018 as the “golden era” in Boston Sports.  Ten titles.  Fifteen championship appearances.  Boston teams went fifteen years without a title from 1987-2001 to ten titles in the next sixteen years.  As much as the rest of the country […]

May 19, 2017April 26, 2020 Joe Leave a comment Basketball, Boston Celtics, Uncategorized

As the Celtics head into Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Cavs on Friday Night, talk of a sweep has already been hitting The Hub for the past two days…after one game.  That’s the NBA.  It’s a league that’s severely flawed.  While the league has always been based on elite teams with […]

BOSTON TD Garden Will Impact Best Of 3

May 8, 2017April 26, 2020 Joe Leave a comment Basketball, Boston Celtics, Uncategorized

The Washington Wizards and their fans are riding high today.  For the second straight game, they completely embarrassed the Boston Celtics to tie this Eastern Conference Semifinals matchup at 2.  The game included a 26-0 run in third quarter which was about as bad as it gets.  The Wizards shot 53% from the field and […]

Celtics Glaring Weakness Exposed Yet Again

April 17, 2017April 26, 2020 Joe Leave a comment Basketball, Boston Celtics

The Boston Celtics were defeated by the Chicago Bulls 106-102 on Sunday Night.  It wasn’t pretty.  The Celtics, as the #1 seed in the Eastern Conference, were expected to have a fairly easy time with the Bulls.  Granted, no one in their right mind really thinks the Celtics are the best team in the East, […]

Celtics Golden Opportunity

April 17, 2016 Joe Leave a comment Basketball, Boston Celtics, Featured

The Celtics missed a golden opportunity in their 102-101 loss on Saturday Night to the Atlanta Hawks.  The Celtics came from 16 points down to take a three-point lead in the fourth quarter, but they failed to hang on in a game that they had a great chance to win.  In addition, the Celtics lost […]

Garden Disadvantage

January 28, 2016 Joe Leave a comment Boston Bruins, Boston Celtics, Featured, Stanley Cup

The Bruins and Celtics are both struggling at TD Garden this year making it a home with no advantage.  The Bruins and Celtics have a lot in common.  They both have rosters good enough to make the playoffs.  They’re both likely going to be bottom tier playoff teams with the possibility of winning a round.

ABOUT

First Score Boston - A Boston Sports Blog
The Boston sports teams are about winning and championships. Nine championships in fifteen years speaks for itself! One of the goals of all four teams is to get out in front early by scoring first. The intent of this site is get the "First Score" on multiple Boston sports topics. This doesn't necessarily mean it will be the first time you hear a specific take on a topic with every post just as the Boston teams don't score first every time. However, the intent is to give you, the reader, something unique and provide opinions on a range of topics that you don't always read about every day.

The opinions on my posts are my own. These opinions may not always be favorable and I don't expect that you'll always agree with them. The "First Score" goal is simply for the readers to enjoy reading about these topics as much as I enjoy writing about them. Your comments and feedback are welcome! Please follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Google, and Tumblr by clicking the link in the Follow Us section!
Thank you! - Joe
