Well, it's a really bad news for the HCA race. But I hope that Rondo will rest and heal well, and not come back too soon, as I hope the same thing for KG.

The injuries are really bothering the team this year. :-\

guess its the law of averages catching up with us somewhat. we were pretty injury free last year, compared to what teams normally get. I mean, we go bumps and such, but outside of that ab strin for KG, we were pretty clean.

Tough news. Come back soon Rajon  :'(
Perk can't get a break with half the bigs out but I wish Doc would sit Paul and Ray until Rondo and KG get back. Or at the very least cut back the minutes.
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.

i heard KG will miss 2 more games and then be back...if we can get him back while rondo heals up..then we will be ok...good thing is boston has several teams they should beat with or without rondo...go with marbury and get him in the mix...i will say..in the long run this could be good for boston...better question is what abou baby?? we are thin right now big time

I think Rondo could probably come back sooner, but it seems like we are very cautious at this stage. I am glad personally, I would rather let him sit and be a ball of fire come playoff time. It also will get Marbury some bigger minutes to build confidence, learn plays, get in better shape, and none of that will hurt us either.

Agreed.  I'm getting a stomach ache thinking about all of this.

It'll be ok...If we get the 2 seed, big deal. We showed how vulnerable the Cavs can be, and if we get the Magic in the 2nd round...We know we can deal with them. Be optimistic...VERY optimistic!!!

I've rolled my ankle tons of times in basketball but I always keep playing. My speed is cut in half momentarily, but i'll usually be moving at 85% in about 15 minutes. No matter what you do though it'll be raw for at least a week and everything near it feels iffy. Not a major injury at all he'll probably come back early knowing him.

This has to be concerning Doc and I wish I knew what was going on in his head. First we lose TA then Scal and KG now Rondo and Big Baby. If we don't get ready for the playoffs soon we gonna be really short handed.

I hate to be thinking this way at these times, but you can't really help it. KG and Rondo have to be back in 100%, I doubt it, still they are key starters on this team. Without them being in good condition we won't get very far in the playoffs. I'm worried about not having TA, Scal, and Big Baby ready because they do help us in a BIG way.
