Can we just have a quick praise the power of the sleeve moment? Hallelujah!  :o

Ok I'm not making this up did anyone notice that in the first quarter the sleeve Rondo was wearing was BLACK.  I thought at first ok he must change during a timeout but magically he bumps into someone on a play and it turned white all of a sudden.  So I dunno if ABC just had a weird thing with their feed today but I've never seen that before.  Was I the only one who caught this??

Exhibit A of why not to watch basketball after dropping acid.

Lol I also thought it magically appeared at first. I think he adjusted it and wore it inside out after someone grabbed his arm.
I wonder which Celtic should tap into the power of the sleeve next. I vote for Perk after those two jumpers he hit last game  ;D
Tommy: He's got a line about me. Tell him the line.

Mike: Everybody 60 or over knows Tommy as a player. Everybody 40 or over knows Tommy as a coach. Everybody 20 or over knows Tommy as a broadcaster. And everybody 10 or under thinks he's Shrek.

does this mean they should allow tights in the dunk contest so players can jump higher?

I caught that too.  About five minutes into the game, he put a bigger black sleeve over his arm (he had a little black one over his elbow to start).  During a stoppage in play, he pulled the black one off (it looked too loose) and the white one was on underneath.
Here's to hoping he repeats this combination of arm sleeves until the end of June.

I say they get a sleeve for Big Baby, if they can find one to fit him.  Just think of how good he would be if he never missed another jumpshot.

Rondo wears his headband upside down becuase he did it by accident and had a good game, i think that we'll be seeing the confident sleeved Rondo for quite a while.

another interesting fact: 25 points is RR's career college high, so this is the most points he's scored since high school. i think he's taking it to the next level, and i wanna see super aggressive Rondo everynight while KG is gone.
