Just woke up and checked the stats.  Too much partying last night here in Seattle.

Looks like Rondo is having his first good game.  I guessed it would take him 6 games to work off the rust.  Hopefully he can keep this kind of playing going into the trade deadline.  Does he look noticeably better or is he just hitting shots?

Has looked good.  He was quick to the basket, no dribbling issues, good passes setting up some easy looks and a lot of tips on D.  He had an amazing old school Rondo pass on a fast break to Bass and Bass didn't fumble it.

It's incredible how predictable this season has been. 

Most of us predicted that the Celtics would be a bottomfeeder team.  We fell all the way to the 3rd worst record.  Most of us predicted that Rondo would return in late January.  He returned in mid January.   Most of us predicted that Rondo would take 5-6 games to get healthy.  Here he is in game 7 looking good.  Most of us predicted that Rondo was a risk to play us out of the lottery.  Here we are winning a loseable game thanks to Rondo.  Most of us predicted Rondo would be traded before the deadline after he proved he was healthy.  We'll see what happens.

Its so nice having a true pg running a team in the last 3 minutes of a ballgame.

Ainge's gamble paid off.  Rondo's trade value should take a nice jump.  I still don't know if we'll trade him (50/50 shot), but he needs games like this if we're going to get serious offers.

Still who knows... maybe we trade Humph + Bradley for Josh Smith and flip Green for Asik.  We'll have options.
