Rondo with bad luck on a good shot imo.

Play has to be Rondo driving to the hoop and getting a short jumper or dishing to KG.

Can't believe that's the best play Doc could come up with.  Rondo settling for an outside jumper TERRIBLE offensive set there.  He had plenty of room to get closer and shoot his floater or dish the ball but settled for a long range jumper.

Horrid execution out of a timeout.

Rondo is leading our team in TO's, but man, he's also leading in rebounds (by 6!!), points and assists!

I was thinking the same thing.  Thankfully the Magic after the timeout came out with absolutely no play lol.. so they had to call another timeout.

This game is seriously unwatchable. Nobody tries their best, they're just playing the game of basketball. Tony Allen played like Tony Allen again; the shots he made were all lucky.

Oh, come on. There has been a lack of execution, missed shots that should have gone in but I in no way feel the Celtics are playing without effort, heart or trying their [dang]dest to win. And well Tony Allen can be infuriating a little credit where credit is due on some of the makes.

That was *not* what they meant to do. Rasheed couldn't pass the ball cuz everyone was covered so someone botched their assignments. Rondo called for the ball, as he should, and took a good shot on a failing offensive possession. I don't blame Doc, nor Rondo.

Rondo on a mid range jumper is never a good option though even if he gets lucky and sinks one.

I agree. Clearly, someone blew an assignment. Rondo took the shot, it was halfway down. It happens, just sucky timing.

A minute is a painfully long time in this game. Hope the C's can pull this out.
