In the words of Ebby Calvin "Nuke" LaLoosh (Bull Durham, come on people!) "I want to give him the heat and announce my presence with authority!" That's what Celtic point guard, Rajon Rondo, is doing to the 2009 playoffs, announcing his presence with authority!

Is Ray Allen Really Jesus Shuttlesworth?
All jokes aside and moving racism out to the curb for just a moment, if I were Denzel Washington at last night’s game I would only have one thing to say to Ray Allen: “My N*gga.”
Seriously guys, how could you not? This game clearly had it all. And Allen’s performance almost reminds me of the [...]

Breaking Down the Kevin Garnett Deal
You probably have already heard that Minnesota has shipped Kevin Garnett to the Boston Celtics. At 20 Second Timeout, the point is not to "break" a story first with the same generic information that you can find at 1000 other websites but rather to break down the story and examine what it really means for Boston, Minnesota and Garnett, who is obviously the biggest name...
Heart Of A Champion: Pierce Comes Through Again For Celtics
With Kevin Garnett still in street clothes and Ray Allen shockingly exiting the game with his sixth foul, Game Five and the fate of the Boston Celtics championship defense fell to one player.
Luckily for Boston fans, that player was Paul Pierce.
After two seasons of having ample help from his All-Star teammates, Pierce was once again [...]
More Rondo controversy! I love this guy… I mean game!
I like to see a good match up. Most of us thought Celtics would win this for sure until Kevin Garnett went out! Teams are playing hard, fouling hard, and trying to through the leg dunks ! All the coaches can say is: "This is Playoff Basketball"

An Indicator Of How Good Pierce Really Is
... or maybe the alternate title is "An indicator of how high we've set the bar for Paul."Pretend we haven't seen Paul struggle... or debate whether he's hurt or exhausted... or yelled at the TV when he inexplicably played sloppy. If you were to come back from a 2 week vacation and long on to check Pierce's stats and see how he was doing, this is what...
Don't Let Rondo Down Tonight
Game 5 is a few hours away... and Rajon Rondo needs our help.“I think it’s important for us, to get the crowd in early,” Rondo said.
“I think it’s very key. I think it’s one of the most important things
besides us playing well tonight is for the crowd to be into it.”You heard the man. Let's hear it tonight.
1987 Redux
Ever since the injury bug began rearing it's ugly head this season, I've been thinking about how this 2008-09 Celtics team seems, in some ways, to be the mirror image of the 1986-87 Celtics. Both breezed through the regular season the prior year. Both went through those seasons relatively unscathed (McHale did miss a dozen or so regular season games). And both won NBA Championships...

Breaking down last night's NBA playoff action
On today’s show, we wonder if the Spurs “dynasty” is over, if Lakers fans should be worried, and whether Dwight Howard should be suspended. We also break down Game 5 of the Bulls-Celtics series: Brad Miller’s free throw troubles, Paul Pierce’s return to dominance and Vinny Del Negro’s flubs.
How is this not a flagrant foul?
In case you missed it, the Bulls and Celtics had yet another overtime game last night. The Celtics prevailed, in no small part to Brad Miller missing the first of two free throws that would have tied the game. In his defense, his lip was bloodied by Rajon Rondo as he drove to the hoop. [...]
