    Elbowed him in the crotch. Deliberately. Look for it to appear on YouTube soon.

    Boston is a very average team without Kevin Garnett. They're getting blown out right now.

    That was so cheap. The old men and their creaky knees are getting their asses handed to them.

    They're showing a replay of the Blazers Spurs game from early March?

    Without PJ Brown, James Posey, and KG, they're not a championship team.

    You should see the thread in the Celtics forum. They're comparing Rondo to Stockton. I tried to tell them that Rondo is playing on a team with three great players, but they claimed that the presence of Garnett, Allen, and Pierce was actually holding Rondo back in some ways. I laughed.

    Rando is more Fat Lever than anything. He's NOTHING like Stockton. NOTHING.

    Without the big-3 opposing defenses would focus on Rando.

    Without the big-3 who is he going to create for? That entire roster plays off of KG, Pierce, and Allen.

    When they decline, which is just around the bend, the Celts will be a mess.

    Hmm. Looks like Varajao hooked Allen and threw him to the floor. Allen lost his cool and retaliated.

    Funny as hell, but clearly out of line. Ray was pretty pissed, I don't what Varejao did to upset him. Just looked like pretty good blocking, if you will.

    Edit: watching it a few more times, oldmangrouch may be right.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Bitch move by Allen. Varejao didn't even flinch, just kept staring down Allen.

    I've lost all respect for Allen. It's remarkable how many athletes, once they get a taste of winning, become pathetic jerks.

    Because they don't already, right? :rolleyes:

    Good point guards heighten the level of play of those around them. Rondo is already an elite distributor and an elite defender. The C's will be just fine with him as the face of the franchise, probably getting to respectability sooner than people think if they can draft some good players around him. If the big three left this summer I would be a little nervous handing the team to Rondo, because I think he's still in the developmental stages, albeit the final ones.

    Define 'mess'. I think they'll revert back to being a .500 team, at least initially.
