That Rondo Kid Can Play a Little Ball



well, that and the fact that Eddie House was channeling some Arizona State type fire.

"That's what happens when you bustin someone's ass. They hit you in the head." HaHa, Eddie Heezee is the man.

In the first round, Rajon Rondo was single rebound away from averaging a triple double. In a tough 7 game series, that is insane. His assist to turnover ratio in the playoffs is absolutely unreal. It seems every night he has 14+ assists and 1 or 2 turnovers. Haters, it's true that players like Eddie House and Ray Allen have helped his assist totals. But, to be honest no one can stay in front of Rondo right now. His quickness and overall athleticism is unmatched in the East. The uptempo style since KG went down has shown off Rondo's game. Rondo blows by the defense at will, the opposing big steps up and Rondo dishes off to Big Baby or Perkins, and they have done a great job of finishing.

Tonight's game was over early, and I for one don't think the Magic have enough to beat the Celtics. Even if they don't have KG for one single second. While it is true that Dwight can have his way down low, that is just not the Magic's style. Their style is to almost use Dwight as a decoy. Have the defense worry about the inside, and beat you from the outside. Orlando shoots more 3s than anyone in the league. Rajon Rondo is having his way, and Ray Allen is still playing like a young Mr. Shuttlesworth. Paul Pierce is yet to get going, and I am pretty sure that in the next 5 games, in at least one of them he will be the reason Boston wins.

Eddie House was sizzlin tonight. Just scorching. Hitting shots that most players wouldn't have the guts to even attempt. He has a quick release, and absolutely no concience. House had 31 points on 11/14 and 4/4 3pt. He was so hot that Rafer Alston lost his head and slapped him in the head. Alston could easily be facing a 1 game suspension for his idiotic decision. Orlando had no answer for Boston's hot shooting, and to me they are the most overrated team in the NBA. They are far from contenders, and considered one in the East by most.
