It's Official

It's official everyone...game one of the Eastern Conference Finals starts today. This has been one amazing year for us. We made it through the regular season and finished with the best record in the league. We've made it through two rounds of the playoffs, and it feels great. All we have to do now is stay focused on the prize and win.

The Cleveland series was a tough one. It was similar to and different from the Atlanta series. It was similar because both teams had guys that could score on any given night. With Atlanta, it was Marvin Williams, Joe Johnson, Josh Childress, etc. With Cleveland, it was Delonte West, Z, Wally, etc. With Cleveland, we not only had to try to contain LeBron, but we also had to try to keep the other guys from putting up numbers on us. There were many differences between the Atlanta and Cleveland series, but I think the most obvious one was LeBron. Having a LeBron James on your team makes a big difference. As a team, we had to make sure that we played intense, aggressive defense. We knew that it was our defense that was going to win us games. In the end, we pulled it off, and now we're moving on to Detroit. I just want to give a big thanks to all of our fans. Without your support, I'm telling you that we would not be where we are. Thanks!

Right now, I'm home. I just got back from shoot around. I'm about to lay it down as usual. I have to get my nap in. This Detroit series is going to be tough. Detroit is a great team, and they play extremely well together. As a team, we must stay focused and play intensely and aggressively. Keep cheering for us yall....I'll holla!

great game tonight ur the best....GO CELTICS!!!!

YOU'RE A BEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey man i can definitely tell you've been working on your shot. That three tonight sealed the deal. Keep it up man. Wish you had the chance to dominate Chris Paul in the NBA Finals this year. I Guess Parker or Fisher will have to do. (knock on wood)

Congrats on the win, Rajon! Keep up the tough D (5 steals!!!) and as Tommy loves to say "attack, attack, attack!" Holla!

Thanks again Rondo! Just look at you with the active hands and that blinding speed = steelathon. You have to be able to sense it. Surely, you can see that they don't have anyone who can keep up with your speed especially when you use your craftiness. The Piston starters look very old trying to chase you down the court. Their D is getting spread out so its perfect for you to drive. They are keying in on the 3 so they are already a step slower getting to you. Add that to your blazing speed, and you should be able to get in the lane constantly putting so much pressure on their D that they will crack. Sure Billups has exp. & muscle, but you have so much speed you can really make him pay at the offensive end. Please do us all a favor and just smother Billups when he picks up his dribble cuz I don't know how many times I've seen him pick up the dribble, look to pass,& then just shoot it. You had a great all around game, but to me it looked like you were holdig back. It has to be hard having that much speed, agility, quickness, and brains to gear it down. It really looks like you could drive the ball from the foul line...they over commit (cuz their D is aggressive) ...you sucker them in...KG comes from the baseline...you throw the lob ad infintinitum. Watching the shock waves behind you as the Pistons labor to catch up lungs bursting / eyes popping as they squint to find their way thru the maze of billowing smoke trailing off of your flaming shoes. Now that is dragster fast, and you don't even have a parachute. God has blessed you with such beautiful speed. It's a lethal weapon. You would be inane not to use it every time that high IQ of yours spots the opening (please use the reverse if Prince is nearby).. Rondo, thanks yet again! Oh, what JOY you're bringing. Keep bringing it!

Thanks man...I appreciate it

Some of my best childhood memories are watching the C's with my dad. I was born in '81 so I was obviously spoiled growing up with Bird, McHale, Parish, DJ and the rest. My dad was a Celtics fanatic and he passed that on to me. He died in '94 when I was 12. Every time I watch you guys play I think about how much he would have loved this team and how great it would be to sit and watch the playoffs with him like I used to every season. Thanks for bringing back old memories and creating new ones.

You're welcome...I'm glad that we could do that for you.

Yo Rajon...

You might've seen it already but I can't resist linking it to ya.

Sorry man, just had to share that one with ya.

Love how you guys are keeping the Garden clean btw. Now go and kick some Piston arse.

Good luck

Great game Rajon. I watched the 1st half at Chris Webber's restaurant Center Court. Great place to eat, he's got one in Sac and Philly and I think one's coming up in Detroit. You should go there some time. Keep up the great work. Banner #17 will be there before you know it!

I liked the little head bop KG gave you the other night. Do you know if some one got a photo of that if so would sure like to see it......Keep taking to them, Detroit can't stop you...

Impressive, Rajon. I'm not necessarily a Celts fan, but for some reason I can't help but cheer for you guys. You're the real deal! Keep it up!

totally katkat, agree 100%

the big three plus one got it done
