Will the Bulls lay out Rondo in Game 6 ?

[fairweatherfan]

I want to see Rondo drive at the bulls on the very first possession.  And I want to see Rondo drive at Miller on the very first play Miller checks in for.   

How epic would it be if Brad Miller checked into the game, and Rondo immediately got him with the fake-behind-the back-move, laid the ball in, and stole Miller's inbound pass all in one play? All of this of course being followed by a VDN timeout that  culminates in Miller being relegated to the end of the bench where he sits with a towel over his head and sobs uncontrollably (while occasionally checking his lip for blood)?

Heck, as long as we're wishing, let's make that basket a Full Paulus (dunked on with crotch to the face).

the bulls SHOULD lay someone out. i love the celts but whether it was flagrant by the book or not, it needs retaliation. i'm not talking about undercutting a guy but if i'm a bull and i have a chance to hit rondo very hard going to the hoop i'm doing it. if you're a chicago bull you should feel obligated too. if they don't i would actually think less of them. again, not flipping a guy over but definitely a very hard hit.

If the Bulls want to retaliate then they should send that goon Aaron Gray in the game to level someone. All he's done is act like a bafoon on the bench so Vinny may as well use him for something.

This is so backwards to me it's funny. There really is no place for retaliation on Rondo to me. The way I view it, the bigs have a responsibility to protect the smalls. So if the roles had been reversed (i.e., Miller slammed Rondo), Perk or somebody needs to step in and let Miller know you can't pick on our little guy (the same would go if Perk slammed Rose).

We're talking about protecting Miller from Rondo. Whose responsibility is that, Rose's'? If Miller has a problem with a small guy he'd have handled it himself, but he's a sally, so he didn't. Hopefuwwy Rose won't let Rondo hewwt him again.

it does'nt matter what size you are, though. if you dish it out you have to expect it back. not that i want this to happen. just sayin..

[KJ33]

YES.  They just tried to, this is out of hand, the league has to know Rondo is being hunted.  Give me a break, this was destined to happen before the game even started.  They put Perk on the bench on a phantom call, which totally changes the game.  I've never seen fans or a team act so childish.  Don't they realize they blew an 11 point lead in the 4th quarter well before they were down 2, got a gift 3 free throws right before that, and that it was a 6 footer hitting a 7 footer? 

The crowd cheered Miller, the guy who choked at the line with a chance to tie the game and cried about being hit by a guy he outweighs by 100 lbs?

Anyone else notice Rondo go into a legit fighting stance for an instant when Hinrich stepped to him?  If he connected with that elbow, Kirk would be on his way to the hospital to get his jaw wired.  Yikes.  I would not want to fight a kid like Rajon with lightning in his hands and feet.  Wow.

I would say the bulls got exactly what they wanted. They got Rondo out of his game and poss out of game 7. Gotta hand it to them. Lets hope that is not what Rondo just did. Personally I like were we stand right now. Time to D up and get Rondo's head back in this game.

unfortunately, it does'nt matter that he missed. he threw and elbow. does'nt that mean an automatic suspension?

Hinrich threw the elbow what are you watching? Rondo just threw him off
