Can everybody get the offense started a little faster? It feels like nothing's happening until there are only 14 seconds left on the shot clock.

End result: rushed shots and Rondo taking long jumpers. I'm ok with Rondo taking jumpers if he's feeling them, but not when he's rushed.

Well we did just score 118 in a regulation gm, so I'm sure something was happening. :)

Everything I dislike about Rondo he did well tonight. I don't know what the OP is complaining about because he did a great job pushing the ball last night, until he sprained his ankle. And after that, it was mostly playing through Pierce.

Today, he moved the ball well. Was accurate with his passes, Ray only had to set his feet and shoot just as the ball was coming towards him.

His played defense well, and his geat offense in the early going helped putting half the team in foul trouble early.

We got a ton of early offense in this game, especially in the first half.

He still needs to do a better job of not forcing shots just about every time he decides to drive, though we got lucky with some great offensive rebounds.

And as the first game, he brought the energy and rebounded extremely well.

This was a fabulous game by Rondo.

those great offensive rebounds only happened because 3 Chi defenders went at rondo,,,giving the c's a 4-2  advantage at the rebound.  At least 3 of them were obvious that rondo knew he'd get fouled or give a teammate and open layup

Lucky bounces, and quite a few of them were blocked. If he drew 3 chicago defenders, it means that there are about two other Celtics open.
