SALT LAKE CITY — Kevin Garnett suffered a posterior muscle strain of the right knee in the Celtics ‘ 90-85 loss to Utah on Thursday night, the Boston Globe reported Saturday. [1]

Reggie Miller said during a recent radio appearance that Kevin Garnett could play if the Celtics advance to the second round, but coach Doc Rivers isn’t optimistic. [2]

This news comes after the only threat to the Cavs, the Celtics, suffered an injury to their second best player and biggest defensive presence: Kevin Garnett. [3]

They had Kevin Garnett and were heading into the playoffs, looking to easily beat the Bulls in the first round. [4]

Whether or not Kevin Garnett is destined for right knee surgery, which is a possibility, this is a team that’ll be missing its leader for the near future, and whenever he returns, if he returns, things just aren’t going to be the same. [5]

The Celtics have a winning percentage of.772 with Garnett in the lineup; with the 25 games he has missed this year, it went down to.720. [4]

The Boston Celtics, attempting to defend the NBA title they won last June, are in big trouble. [5]

The Celtics are in a bad way down 0-1 and without Kevin Garnett for the foreseeable future. [6]

Shut down is a serious term, and Garnett could miss three or four games ‘ on top of the two he just missed, and on top of the 13 he missed beginning Feb. 22 ‘ but having played so little over the last eight weeks, and having so little time to recover in time for the playoffs, well, do the math. [5]

Kevin Garnett’s injury is a blow to the Celtics’ hopes. [...] Boston Celtics general manager Danny Ainge has suffered a heart attack and will spend the next three days at Massachusetts General Hospital. [3]

Garnett will stay in Boston for the remaining three games of the Celtics’ West Coast trip, Ainge told ESPN NBA analyst Jackie MacMullan. [1]

I grew up reading Bob Ryan, who covered the Celtics for the Boston Globe and remains the best basketball writer alive to this day. [6]

According to Boston Celtics coach Doc Rivers, it’s very unlikely that Kevin Garnett will play in the post-season. [3]

Ginobili had returned to game action March 25 in Atlanta after missing 19 games with a stress reaction in his right distal fibula. [6]

If Obama becomes president, his first nominee to the Supreme Court will likely be Sonia Sotomayor. [1]

Sonia Sotomayor is reportedly on Barack Obama’s short-list for the Supreme Court. [2]

Born June 25, 1954 in New York, Sonia Sotomayor has traveled far beyond the Bronx projects where she grew up to become the first Puerto Rican woman to serve as a U.S. Circuit Court judge. [3]

Sonia Sotomayor is a judge in the U.S. Court of Appeals, Second Circuit. [4]

She has been named by numerous media outlets, including CNN and Esquire Magazine, as a virtual shoe-in for nomination to the Supreme Court upon the retirement of one of several aging Supreme Court justices (John Paul Stevens, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and possibly several others). [2]

Sotomayor is the first Puerto Rican woman to serve as a U.S. Circuit Court judge. [4]

According to a blog post by conservative activist Ed Whelan, Sotomayor’s nomination was part of a deal President Bush made with Republican Senator Al D’Amato and Democratic Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan of New York, and it was Moynihan who suggested Sotomayor’s name to President Bush. [5]

And because Sotomayor has a reputation for staying behind the scenes and sits on a federal bench known for its centrism, it’s likely that she would be able to garner a two-thirds majority in the Senate, even if the Democrats only control an estimated 55 or so seats. [1]

‘When I was nine or ten, I became enamored of Nancy Drew stories and I wanted to be an investigative detective like her,’ Judge Sotomayor recalls. [...] She went on to Yale Law School where she was the editor of the law journal and received her J.D. degree in 1979. [3]

In 1991, Sotomayor was nominated by President George H. W. Bush to a seat on the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. [2]

Plus there’s an insurance measure if the nomination gets too politicized publicly: Sotomayor was appointed to the U. S. District Court for the Southern District of New York in 1992 by President George H. W. Bush. [1]

With her stellar credentials, she had her pick of law schools to attend and chose to go to Yale Law School, where she was an editor of the Yale Law Journal. [...] In 1997, she was nominated by President Bill Clinton to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, and confirmed by the Senate in 1998. [2]

Lott and Jones noted that Sotomayor was rated only “moderate” or “neutral,” rather than “conservative,” in a survey by the Almanac of the Federal Judiciary of courtroom lawyers regarding the political views of the judges they encounter in their litigation. [5]
