Jason Terry wants his role to be "defined" next season with the Celtics.
Terry dismissed the notion of retirement. "I have to get back to Sixth Man of the Year form," he said. Terry was a disappointment for the majority of Boston's season, and put bluntly, he'll need to play better in order to regain his previous form. May 6 - 10:26 AM

Jason Terry - G - Celtics

Jason Terry hit five 3-pointers in Wednesday's surprising 92-86 Game 5 win at Madison Square Garden, while adding 17 points, four boards, three assists, one steal and one block in 35 minutes.

After falling apart down the stretch this season, Terry has really turned it on and showed some confidence in a post-game interview on TNT. "I'm a 14-year veteran. If you don't know who I am by now, you will after this series is over with," Terry said. The Knicks will have to honor Terry's shooting on defense and Game 6 in Boston on Friday night should be interesting.

Jason Terry - G - Celtics

Jason Terry finished strong in Sunday's 97-90 win over the Knicks with nine points in overtime, finishing with 18 points, four assists, one steal and one 3-pointer on 7-of-10 shooting in 41 minutes.

This hasn't been Terry's finest series and this game was his first in which he shot over 45 percent. Terry hit a huge triple in transition during overtime to help the put the Celtics up for good. Backcourt scoring has been an issue for Boston for most of the season and they'll still have their work cut out for them to take Game 5 on Wednesday.

Jason Terry will head back to the bench for Sunday's Game 4 vs. New York.

Terry started Game 3 with the Celtics searching desperately for some offense, but the one-game experiment was exactly that: Just an experiment. Terry will go back to his sixth man role, but he's had trouble being effective against the Knicks throughout the first round.

Jason Terry - G - Celtics

Doc Rivers said he's not sure if Jason Terry will remain in the starting lineup for Sunday's Game 4.

Terry got the call Friday, with Rivers hoping Terry's presence in the lineup would take pressure off Avery Bradley. It didn't work. Bradley had his worst game of the series, scoring two points on 1-of-4 shooting to go along with one rebound, one steal and no assists. Terry, however, responded with possibly his best game in the loss, scoring 14 points to go along with three 3-pointers, two steals, two assists and one rebound. With the Celtics down 3-0, Rivers is basically grasping at straws.

Jason Terry is starting in favor of Brandon Bass against the Knicks on Friday.

"We can add more guards on the floor at times," Doc River said in the pre-game and his words held true. It's a curious move and Terry was much worse as a starter for Boston this year. In his 24 starts, he shot 41.2 percent from the field compared to the 44.5 percent he shot coming off the bench. It should be interesting to see how the lineup change works for Boston in a must-win Game 3.

Jason Terry (leg) had a rough afternoon against the Knicks on Saturday, failing to score with three boards and one block.

The Boston bench scored just four points -- all from Courtney Lee -- and Terry probably won't see 20 minutes of playing time with this type of performance. He didn't play in the last two games, but the chalking up today's game to rust isn't a justified excuse.

Jason Terry (sore legs) will not play Wednesday night.

The Celtics are resting Terry for the postseason, along with Kevin Garnett, who is also sitting out the regular-season finale. If you were using him, get him out of your lineup tonight. Courtney Lee should take care of Terry's minutes off the bench.

Jason Terry (sore legs) will not play in Tuesday's game and may be rested on Wednesday as well.

The Celtics take on the Pacers on Tuesday, and Indiana is expected to rest their key players, but Doc Rivers expects just about everyone beyond Terry to play vs. the Pacers. As for Wednesday's game vs. the Raptors, expect the regulars to rest for that one with the Celtics locked into seventh place.

Jason Terry - G - Celtics

Jason Terry was rested on Saturday, and he may sit out the Celtics' final games on Tuesday and/or Wednesday, but he has not been suspended.

We reported that Terry might be suspended due to comments he made about the Magic being "terrible," but Doc Rivers is merely resting his veteran guard in anticipation of the playoffs. The end result of Terry's absence is the same -- more playing time for Courtney Lee and Jordan Crawford.

Jason Terry will not play in Saturday's game against the Magic and could be suspended for the rest of the regular season.

Terry wasn't exactly smart about his pre-game comments for today's game against Orlando. "I don't want to give them any fuel, but they're terrible," Terry said about the Magic. Doc Rivers quipped about suspending him for "running his mouth" and it's probably warranted, especially with Boston losing five of their last seven. He can be cut in all leagues and look for Jordan Crawford to pick up most of the scoring slack at shooting guard.

Jason Terry - G - Celtics

Jason Terry is expected to receive some rest before the Celtics end their season.

Terry will play Friday vs. Miami, but the veteran has already said he "won't fight it" when Doc Rivers wants to give him some time off. That could happen as early as Saturday vs. the Magic with Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce due back from their sore ankles.

Jason Terry scored 24 points off the bench on Friday, hitting 7-of-10 shots (including five threes) with one rebound and one assist in 31 minutes.

Terry has been brutal lately and he needs to follow this up with another solid outing unless you're hunting a 3-point specialist.

Jason Terry - G - Celtics

Jason Terry had 10 points, two 3-pointers and not much else in 22 minutes off the Celtics bench on Tuesday.

Jordan Crawford got the start for an injured Courtney Lee tonight, and with Lee seemingly close to a return, Terry probably deserves to be left on waiver wires for now.

Jason Terry - G - Celtics

Jason Terry promised to "get more aggressive" after not scoring in 20 minutes of action against the Hornets on Wednesday.

Terry's season has been defined by inconsistency, but we have a feeling he'll be looking to prove a point against his former Mavericks team on Friday. "I'm going to be super-aggressive. We'll see what happens," he said. Terry's only exceeded 25 minutes three times in March, so he'll likely have to do whatever damage he intends on doing in limited action.
