Really excited to see Rondo showcased versus Rose.

Wow Gooden doesn't really have a shot, his first was an airball and his 'moves' only got his shot blocked.

I'm not sold on Tyrus Thomas. Besides being able to jump, I don't see much he can do.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Solid start.  We're playing some good D but Chicago is really throwing up some bricks.  Keep up the intensity and we win this one going away.

Looks like Rondo is going to get a lot of layups this year ;D

If Rose doesn't have the quickness to keep up with him I don't know who will.

Great sequence there with Powe putting it home.  He's going to get some 6th man of the year love before this year is all said and done.



Less Scal please.

Best players so far?

Rondo and Perk.

THE BIG FIVE!!!
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

Rondo will be an all star if he makes 75% of his free throws.  Doesn't look like that's going to happen though.

Right, I wonder when teams will start to try the Hack-a-Rondo strategy...

Hopefully the C's can add to the lead in the 2nd half and then we can see the youngsters.

Rondo is such a joy to watch.

So nice to see the smothering D.  Beating teams into submission was awfully fun to watch last year.
