Rondo sucks right now. Three times down the court h makes bad decisions leading to turnovers.  :'(

Rockets push the ball up the court.  Layups and wide open threes.

Celtics/Rondo slowly walk the ball up the court, can't get anything going offensively.  Turnovers and difficult fadaway contested jumpers.

Yeah I don't see any correlation between pushing the pace and offensive success.  No it couldn't possibly be that layups and wide open threes are preferable to contested fadaway mid range jumpers.

Lazy Rondo is killing our team.  Stop trying to orchestrate the most beautiful play ever and take the easy fastbreak layups.  Cripes it's really not that freaking hard.  Someone with such high basketball IQ should be able to understand that layups are preferable to emergency jumpers.

Rondo has just been 100% awful for so many games.  Amazing how assist numbers can fool people.

Rockets putting a lot of ball pressure + us playing slow... results are self-explanatory.

Sully is starting to look like the most game-changing player the Celtics have.
Practice? Whatchu talkin about practice?

I hope the Celtics hold onto this one. They are a confident team right now, I dont want anything like this to interrupt them feeling that way and possibly derailing them.

How the heck do you go from close to blowing them out to letting them back into the game?
I know Sully is not THAT important to the point where the team loses the lead, is he?
I went from hoping to see Gino to getting confused and possibly nervous.

Toney Douglas was big in the 4th quarter back in Houston too. With his defense on Rondo.
