He said he would drive more post all-star break.


I don't ever remember him being such a chucker in Orlando. He used to mix his spot up shooting with some nice drives to the hoop and even some sick dunks. I wonder if his injury did him in....

I expect Pietrus to go under the knife again...and miss the rest of the season.

Yeah his knee has played up which is a concern.

Paul Pierce, 0 rebounds. How does everyone on the team have a rebound but Paul? His rebounding is a difference maker for this team be it positively or negatively.

Paul 2-11 but 8As, 0 TOs, & 2 steals. Please get in rhythm & keep going to hoop.

Rondo led comeback with pace. Do not let up, Rajon!

Ray has been catastrophically bad on D & some awful handles & passes.

Rebounding horrible.

Play with pride, urgency & hustle.
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

This act of your is getting real tiring. Grow up and let it go. Bottom line is, Rondo and Pierce are BOTH our best players and we need BOTH of them playing well if we want to win games, particularly in the playoffs. If you think Paul is a better player then Rondo, or that hes more essential to our teams success, then thats fine, but dont compare them to try to shine a negative light on Rondo. If your a real fan of the TEAM, it shouldnt matter who the better player is, because we're lucky enough to have them both. You should be more concerned about the C's winning games, and less concerned with drawing attention to yourself by acting like a sarcastic and scorned little child.



I make this post, Rondo makes a handful of nice plays to spark a 20-7 run to close out the quarter, he hits a contested 3 at the buzzer to get it to within 2 at the half, and your as quiet as a church mouse...

Typical.


What the hell are you talking about? Ive been saying this throughout the whole thread. Rondo is the reason we're down 2 and not 20.

It's games like these which remind me why I don't want Bass around here long term. He a complete moron out there. Constantly being "surprised" by what is happening out there. Has no clue, whatsoever, how to move off of the ball.

Take that alley oop attempt by Rondo to him:

1) Was Bass open? Check

2) Is Bass athletic enough to actually throw down an alley oop? Check

3) Was the pass timely and catchable? Check

4) Did Bass have any clue that Rondo was going to throw him an alley oop? No. Why? He's stupid.

It wasn't just that. I screamed at the TV about 10 times during the first half at Bass for being a complete idiot. Even on the Rondo three at the end, Rondo wanted to pass the ball to Bass, but the clown had taken the WRONG angle going down the floor, and was just RUNNING, blissfully unaware that a good pass could have been made to him. Just look on the replay how far to the left of the backboard he jogs out of bounds because of the **** angle he took.

Bass is the Anti-Baby. If you could put Davis' brain in Bass's body you would have a really good player. Baby was smart, but just didn't have the skills to do what he WANTED to do. If he had Bass's athleticism and shooting ability he would have been a beast unchained. Bass, meanwhile, completely screws himself and the team because he has no friggin clue what is going on out there.

Ray has been catastrophically bad on defense? You must be watching a different game.
