Gotta (unfotunately) come back to earth and realize that there's some big, big concerns going forward, Rondo's elbow being the most obvious. Doc also hinted that Delonte's shoulder might be worse than we thought, but I have a hunch that he's saying that as a precaution. Even if we survive this series I'm not sure how we'd hold up against a team like the Bulls or the Western Conference champs without Rondo at full strength... Heal up, Rondo

Enjoying the victory is great, but the reality of these injuries is going to hit home very quickly. If there is a spare miracle out there, let it rest on the Celtics tomorrow and Monday to get Rondo and West into playing condition for Monday night.

This game is one for the Celtics lore , Rondo ...wow..it will be replayed and shown forever.

This is one of those moments , that reguardless of the series outcome, this game was amazing NBA history, with all the superstars and drama.....

You couldn't have made a movie with this much drama and believed it

Don't get me wrong, I'm still buzzing for sure  ;D

Yeah I'm convinced Delonte is fine... Rondo downplayed the injury big time postgame but that might just be the kinda guy he is. We'll see

Yeah, we might as well enjoy the win while we can.

Wears off? It won't wear off for me ... the momentum is now in our favor, and we've got to keep riding it until something changes to the contrary, which may not happen. We have the same worries and problems that we've been faced with time and time again, but this team can overcome, (as it's proven many times), and I don't intend to let the high wear off. No way.

I still can't watch the replay of Rondo's injury without cringing.

Shaq still worries me.

Seeing JO need treatment on his back is not good.


And yet I am still confident...


I believe in the heart of this team more than their muscles and bones.
