Garnett carried us once again. Dominant performance by the team MVP. While Ray and Pierce were obviously hurting, KG beasted all over the court.
Rondo had a strange game. I remember specifically at one point seeing a graphic flash that he had 12 assists. I said to myself, "Wow... 12 assists? He has been horrible in this game. We're down by 10 points. When did he manage to get 12 assists?"... but as the game progressed he came through HUGE. 6-15 shooting and 7 turnovers to go with a 13 points, 17 assists, 12 rebounds and 4 steals. A couple rare huge shots down the stretch. I'll take it.
But that was all KG tonight, baby. Big men win titles and right now KG is playing as good as he's ever played on the Celtics. That's good. That's very good. If Ray and Pierce can get healthy we might make some noise.
