According to the wizards at ESPN Stats & Information, Rondo single-handedly accounted for 59 of Boston's 104 points, his 19 assists leading to 46 points. LeBron James, who accepted his second consecutive MVP award Tuesday night, and Mo Williams, who took over Game 1 with a furious third-quarter outburst, combined to account for 53 points for the Cavaliers.

That was a beautiful move, in fact I don't think I've seen the dream shake done so well since Hakeem did it himself.

Looking at the video though, doesn't it look like Rondo dragged his pivot foot when he was coming to a stop on that play?  Isn't that a travel?

  • You know my methods, Watson.
If you look closely you'll notice two jockstraps lying on the floor...

I must admit that I was completely wrong about Rondo when he was drafted, and am willing to eat crow.  Not to sound sacrilegious (and I'm almost 38 so I've got some history to this team) but I believe Rondo will go down as the greatest PG to ever wear a Celtics jersey.  There aren't many superlatives to describe how great he is...

His travel wasn't as noticable as Lebrons

This is perhaps one of the best fakes that I've seen in many years.  "He shook their drawers off"  OH MY!

I'm glad it was titled a "dream shake" on here.
How come not 1 guy on TNT or CSNE could correctly identify it as so?
Donny and Gary were even trying to name the move as if it had never been done...
"Now you see me, now you don't", etc.

It's a dream shake.

My favorite dream shake actually wasn't done by Hakeem...

Reggie Miller coined it "The Now You See Me Now You Don't".

It was like for a split second, he was wearing an invisibility cloak or something.  Check out the looks on the faces of Sideshow & Candace.

  This, after 53 out of the 93 points in game 1.

As a Cavs fan I feel obligated to mention that this was a travel since his right foot was his pivot foot and that is what he dragged across the key. 

But, travels get missed all the time, and being a fan of the team with Lebron, I can't ever complain about a travel not being called.

All that being said, I absolutely loved that move as a basketball fan.
