Tweaked his knee.

Just a tweak? Could he walk on his own?

Don't tell me it's another one.

 

[Canuck76]

Tweaked his knee.

Uhhhh no. Is he faking or we talking actual injury here? How long is he out?

Yeah, he could walk. Don't think it is serious.

He was walking fine. Sore right knee, probable return.

He walked to the locker room under his own power.

This is the part where you buy a rondo jersey and frame the nash jersey and let the next great QB pg RR9, take his place among the greats.

You know it to be true, lack of a 3pt shot be damned

RR9 does many things well. But with out a semblance of a jump shot he hurts the team so bad.

It's masked A LOT by the 3 guys around him. But he's entirely tradable as a piece.

He has a few other offensive short comings, but that lack of a jump shot is going to be so brutal when the 3 retire.

RR9 is a fine shooter now, giri. A fine shooter.

I'll take the guy who got his team to the finals twice, thank you very much.

 

[SamuraiX-]

Good to hear.

I just hope the training staff of every team has been taking note of the shit that has gone down just in this first round. They better not be letting any of their players step foot on the court without the proper conditioning before a game.

You're a complete joke character.

 

[Emwitus]

You're a complete joke character.

So is you're team.

[masud]

Those clowns won? Lmao.

(Happy for Stat though)

 

[GremlinFool]

So is you're team.

Your*.

As in: Your blog about watching the NBA playoffs for the first time would be riveting to read.

This is also a lesson on sarcasm. PM me if you want to learn more.

You are team

Pm'ed. Is that how it works? Cause i never sent one.

Rondo did what?

Whose team?

 

[Emwitus]

Rondo did what?

Whose team?

You heard me. lol.

 

[Knux-Future]

Knees are not supposed to do that.

holy shit

 

[diehard]

Rondo did what?

Whose team?

the guy that made his team lose because Kobe knows to defend him, and by defend him i mean not defend him.

 

[DY_nasty]

You heard me. lol.

Leon Powe was a bigger factor in the finals the first time.

The second time, Rondo was a joke as he had his team playing 4 on 5. He has the same limitations now that he did then.

 

[Emwitus]

the guy that made his team lose because Kobe knows to defend him, and by defend him i mean not defend him.

Atleast he got his team in a position to win. I'd rather have rondo over nash to be honest. Atleast he plays defense.

 

[h3ro]

Fingers crossed that Baron didn't sever anything. :/

 

[DY_nasty]

Atleast he got his team in a position to win. I'd rather have rondo over nash to honest. Atleast he plays defense.

You literally don't have to guard Rondo

 

[Emwitus]

You literally don't have to guard Rondo

You literally can replace nash with a goal post on defense and they would do the same thing.

 

[Khalifa Jayy]

just saw this lol

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

You literally don't have to guard Rondo

Rondo's passing has improved to the point that he makes you pay for not guarding him though.

 

[RBH]

My reaction to the Hawks' performance in the first half:

[hearsaybear]

Rondo is a much better shooter now. Lay off him and he'll drain j's much more often than you can afford.

 

[friskykillface]

Smh take Pierce out


He's gonna get injured more

 

[Dominican Power]

Celtics are too godlike right now.

 

[DY_nasty]

Nash's defense is bad.

Rondo's independent offense is limited to the point where he is a liability in tight games.

You can cover for bad defense though.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Rafer Alston got his team to the Finals as well.

Fact I'd like to hear announcers mention: Marvin Williams can't get on the floor because Tracy McGrady and Willie Green are outplaying him.

Goddammit, Marvin, I believed in you for once and this is what happens.

 

[hearsaybear]

Yea pierce should not be playing. Put him in a couple minutes to keep him loose, but everyone else is lights out tonight.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

just saw this lol

lol.

Why is Pierce even back in this game? It was over by the end of the first quarter, no need to risk reinjury/inflammation.

 

[diehard]

Rondo is a much better shooter now. Lay off him and he'll drain j's much more often than you can afford.

I'll take an EFG of 35% on jumpshots any day.

 

[h3ro]

lol Reggie saying his chair has a better J than rondo.

 

[DY_nasty]

I'll take an EFG of 35% on jumpshots any day.

Kemba-esque shooting

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Reggie Miller trolling Rondo.

Yep, that was dumb as hell.

 

[dream]

God, MVPierce is a tough man.

 

[Emwitus]

MVPIERCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

 

[hearsaybear]

I'll take an EFG of 35% on jumpshots any day.

What's his percentage this postseason though? Dude seriously steps up under pressure.

 

[The Chosen One]

Pierce is so free.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Pierce just ran into the crowd like the Ultimate Warrior.

 

[Red Blaster]

I didn't realize the 2010 Hawks had returned. Just need JoJo to say how he doesn't care about the fans again.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Pierce just don't give a fuck now.

 

[SunhiLegend]

Boston destroying the Hawks.

 

[diehard]

What's his percentage this postseason though? Dude seriously steps up under pressure.

well since he has an eFG of 29%, and 13% on jumpshots in the clutch.. i would assume this statement isnt true.
