Time to let go of that bone me thinks....
Murrke never challenged Rondo asa player with heart, and he never said he wasn't a good player... You one eyed Celtics/Rondo fans turned it into that! hahah But he was a troll....
Haven't seen the injury or read to much other then here but, sounds like Rondo did an exceptional job considering the injury!! It's amazing what adrenalin can do... and the relization that there isn't much left in the Celtics dyasty!!
Sopelstra or what ever, reminds me of Neil Criag (Adelaide Crows Coach) can't seem to coach a game on it's merits!! Thats what the hell they are hired to do isn't it...??? Coach a team and lead from the front on game day!! This series is going to be more interesting then the first 2 games suggested, but I still strongly beleive the Heat will prevail...just based on Home court advantage!!
rondo was tough coming back after that, i still think they should have kept him out though, it could of ended up so much worse! i know from experience (different injury, when i was playing i did ligaments in my ankle and kept playing, worst thing i could have done because once the adrenalin/you cool down and swelling starts you regret it) doc rivers seems sceptical on rondo for the next game, time will tell i suppose, but it was a sickening sight in slow motion, it just isnt supposed to bend like that!!! ouch...
good win for the celtics damn it, so much wanted miami to go up 3-0, close at the half and miami disappeared in the last half, stopped being aggressive and too many jump shots, boston also played great d and really clogged the lane also, tuesday game 4 should be a beauty i reckon, but doesnt shaq look akward and out of shape, dont think he will get used much some how, garnett was the difference, bosh was non existent, mainly due to garnetts suffocating defence i suppose, and credit where credit is due, pierce played pretty good d on lebron, surely lebron will have to come back with a vengance...

I'll take van gundy over mark Jackson any day, JVG says it like it is normally, adds in some humor and stories about people from the inside perspective and only sometimes dribbles on with crap. Mark Jackson, like Bill Walton, makes every single thing he says try to sound like the most important thing to happen to humanity! Can take Walton in small doses but need the mute for Jackson
It was nice to see my guy Mario Chalmers have a good game. 17pts on 7-9 shooting, a few rebounds and assists plus 3 steals!!
Pretty annoying though that in all the recaps I've read, nobody really mentioned his game. I know it was a loss for the Heat but still - he was the Heat's second leading scorer and a it's a big jump in production for him.
Anyway - well done to the C's for doing something to make the series interesting
Cheers all

It was defs good for him. But the reason nobody mentioned it is because we lost the game. At this point in the season we're not looking for stats. We're looking for W's. Bench production is a great thing to have though so a great game from Mario!!

LeBron & Wade postgame
Reporter : "DWade, what do you have to say about people who think your play may have been dirty or out of character tonight?"
Wade : "Who?"
Reporter : "In general, people who were watching the game, some of us who worked the game, or is that just the level of competition, emotions, just a little clarity please"
Lebron (barely audible) : "That's retarded..."
Wade : "I have no clarity for that question. It was a physical game, I'm not a dirty player" etc etc
Good to see Lebron can butt in on his team mate and almost stuff a potentially good explanation up
Wade for the most part went on to say some informative things but Lebron sounds more like he's talking about himself
video is here but the question is already edited out, nice

audio is from the Boston Celtics podcast which has been adding all the post game pressers lately which has been good

From what I've seen of replays on that play no, but this series he definitely cranked it up to be more "physical" So by that definition, by KG standard, he must be!
Disclaimer: excludes nut flicking, dunno about that choice......

In the playoffs so far they are virtually equal. KG has been using his verbal talents, Wade is the one trying to shake people up. And Lebron has been just opening his yap again making the wrong decision. I'd say he needs a public speaking trainer or a muzzle, but I think it's too late, he'll never get the public eye high profile thing.
