The mystery of Rondo's absence being linked to better ball movement, and what that means to the Celtics moving forward is mulled.
Tommy Heinsohn and Bob Cousy were recently interviewed by Fox Sports about whether Ray Allen's No. 20 should be retired one day and hung from the TD Garden rafters along with the other Celtics greats. Both of them said yes. My gut reaction was no w

Dwight Howard to the LA Lakers could very well be a nightmare for the rest of the league.
Ray Allen past, present, future
A brief synopsis of the draft history of the Celtics - and the Celtics own some of the best ever selections within the draft.
Courtesy of mrtrpledouble10, and also by unpopular demand, here is THE most critical non-call of the game - Wade's whacking Rondo's head that lead to a potential 4 point swing late in OT. Rondo should have had 2 foul shots, and then MIA would not have had an easy transition play on the other end with Rondo reeling on the floor after being struck. Jeff Van Gundy: "That's one that every official would want back, because that isn't marginal contact . . . it was clearly a foul".
By unpopular demand, the video of Wade double-kicking Kevin Garnett in his groin and again in the chest for another And-1.
Bring it on "old and hobbled" Celtics . . . but Stephen A forgot about a healthy Rondo and sharp-shooter Bass, plus-minus extraordinaire KG, the gritty Captain Clutch Pierce and Ray Allen - who showed he's not done yet!
Celtics are looking for some bench support . . . why not E'Twaun Moore to give the Celtics a lift?

Celtics really shouldn't have been expected to roll in this series given their history and the 76er's bench proving to be a factor. The only solution for a C's win is more KG.
The Celtics-Hawks series went according to plan for the most part . . . win at least one of the first two away games in Atlanta and then hold court at home to take the series in six games. That is...

Ryan Hollins is not the perfect center, but is an intriguing addition to the Celtics if some chemistry comes into play for the athletic 7-footer.
Prior to the HOU game, Scott Souza of the Metrowest Daily News reports that Doc doesn't expect JO will be coming back this season due to the flare up of the wrist injury he incurred last spring.
Prior to the HOU game, Scott Souza of the Metrowest Daily News reports that Doc doesn't expect JO will be coming back this season due to the flare up of the wrist injury he incurred last spring. "If he plays for us," Rivers said, "it's a bonus." Doc has already committed to roll with Brandon Bass as a starter beside KG, who's been shining at center, and have Wilcox, JJ and "the Stiemer" as the back-up bigs . . . unless a trade happens. An expiring contract is all the C's can count on from JO this season . . .
As reported by Sherrod Blakely at CSNNE, the Clips would be likely suitors for Allen, and the Rockets, Clips and Lakers for Pierce. Makes you wonder if Garnett is making it known that he's retiring if he's not in this conversation . . .

There was an interesting tidbit this weekend on the state of things in OKC not necessarily being OK, with Perkins being in the mix.
For some Monday morning humor, this video is a gut buster if you are non-fan of the Miami Heat Big 3 celebration, and a fan of the Big Head commercials featuring NBA players (some NSFW language associated with WWF theater). Hat tip to Red's Army.
For a Celtics rewind, here's Jake vs. Jesus Shuttlesworth going one-on-one, for all the marbles. Ray Allen shows off his talents on the silver screen, while the father-son relationship manifests itself through some poetry-in-motion on the court. This is set to some beautiful music by Aaron Copland. Enjoy as we honor those that have made the ultimate sacrifice for the USA on this Memorial Day.

We studied and studied for the test and on test day we had a brain freeze. But the good thing is, it’s not one test. You get another chance at it. So we’ll study again [yesterday] and hopefully do better on the test [tonight].
