Yeah, Rondo is an incredibly tough competitor.

I have serious reservations about putting Rondo out there, though.  I have a hard time imagining him being effective tonight with that injury.

Not a good idea putting him back in.

Remember he refused to stay off the court after injuring his ankle against NY and that made it worse.

Must rest him and reevaluate him after the game.

Wow. Warrior. That's all there is to say, even if we're *probably* better off with Delonte in there for tonight at least

With most dislocations, there's not a lot of risk of further re-injury.  Rather, it's just a matter of pain and some tenderness from where the surrounding muscles and connective tissue was stretched.  Since the elbow is back in place, Rondo is probably okay.

Don't be surprised if he's in more pain tomorrow than he is right now.  He's got to be playing on pure adrenaline.

Hope you're right. No doubt he'll be feeling it tomorrow morning.

Incredible display of toughness and courage from the kid.

I'm on him as much as anyone, but he gets a tip of the cap for tonight. Willis Reed-like.

yeah, i actually think rondo might not be able to play on monday. he probably will, but it's going to be worse tomorrow and maybe monday as well. that being said...him coming back and playing absolutely has to go down as one of the signature NBA playoff moments.

No one can ever question Rondo's heart or desire ever again. Ever.

Rondo:  "I'll be limited, but I can still play defense"

Great attitude.

Even if we eventually lose this series... Man, I'm just dripping with pride right now. Rondo, you're the man

It will get better he'll just need to not use it as much until Monday.

He definitely showed some serious brass ones out there tonight, but that might be a bit of an overstatement. He did spend the final couple of months of the regular season playing with no heart or desire because he was upset over a trade. He shows up in the playoffs though. That is what he does. Nice effort out there that gave your team a lift. I sure hope the adrenaline doesn’t wear off and he has trouble for the next one.
