Blake Griffin on not rejoining the Celtics for last year's title run No I thought about it man I had nine surgeries in my careerMy last one was it was a noticeable I just can't play the game the same way I wanted to and I always kind of thought once I get to that point it's time

How will the Celtics fare this season without Ime Udoka at the helm

First Take Stephen A Smith has been pointing to an Adrian Griffin firing regardless of record throughout the season

Stephon Castle makes 1 out of 2 from the line and Jalen Green almost makes the game-tying 3-pointer Chris Paul puts his hands on his head - the Spurs win

Wojnarowski I'm told it's gonna be a 1-year suspension That's what they're finalizing at some point today But it's not necessarily a guarantee that Udoka's back in this job after a year
