Highlight: Rondo Leads The Break

I love this decision-making from Rajon Rondo. While leading the break, you can see him eyeballing Ray Allen, who runs the wing and spots up on the arc. The Sixers have a 1-2 disadvantage but are mostly concerned about Allen’s three balls, which allows Mickael Pietrus to make an unmolested baseline cut behind the defense. [...]

(Video) Rajon Rondo Continues To Dominate In Postgame Interview

Rajon Rondo is a tremendous player, but he tends to have a little bit of an issue scoring the ball late in games. I won’t go as far as saying he is scared, but he does pass up shots and defer to teammates in crunch-time….well a lot. Last night though may have been his coming [...]

KG Shooting Around Already During Calf Recovery

Some very encouraging news out of the C’s practice facility today in Waltham, where C’s injured starting power forward Kevin Garnett was seen going through a gym workout and practicing shooting by himself on the gym floor. Here’s the full report from Gary Washburn of the Boston Globe:

Just a week after suffering a right calf strain, Kevin Garnett returned to the court today at the Celtics’ practice facility in Waltham to take some jumpers. Garnett wore his customary practice uniform and tights covering his legs but there was no brace or protection for the calf.

Garnett spent about 15 minutes taking his customary elbow shots after working out in the team’s exercise gym.

“I got nothing for you man,” Garnett said when asked to comment. “Besides Happy Holidays.”

A jolly KG is always happy to hear from. This should also put to bed any doubters who believed the C’s were covering up a larger injury here. With the fairly soft home schedule after this week, and Jermaine O’Neal looking better by the game, I hope Garnett takes plenty of time here to heal, even if he is recovering quickly.
