I was at the game. It seemed to me Rondo never got his own offense going, he had an early miss, then never took any jump shots, and he was shaky with the layups. Still 13 assists, he did set up guys and they were hitting their shots which was great. It was really fun watching Perkins in the first half just finish every missed shot and force his way to most of the boards. Was also in awe of how good offensively Rip Hamilton is, wow.
As a sidenote, I thought the crowd was kind of lame, it felt like they expected the celtics to win without cheering them on. Only got loud with a few minutes left in 4th q. Not sure what other people thought. Some dude asked me to sit down during the 4th q, not sure he knew it was the playoffs...
