Rajon Rondo bumps ref, now faces possible suspension

Via Celtics Town  |  April 30, 2012
For a long time yesterday, the Celtics played about as badly as they could. Kevin Garnett couldn’t hit the ocean if he were throwing an anchor off the side of a boat during the first half. Paul Pierce, ditto, and his struggles continued into half two. Brandon Bass didn’t even take a shot for what seemed like forever, the bench combined for four points in 51 minutes, and the...

Paul Pierce with another vintage playoff performance

Via Celtics Town  |  May 02, 2012
Many people predicted before last night that Paul Pierce would become more of a distributor in Rajon Rondo’s absence. Pierce often dishes more assists than usual when Rondo misses games, so it was natural to believe he would become a de facto point guard in Rondo’s absence. Pierce, however, maintained the stance he always takes when asked why he scored this, or passed that...

Not only did the C's fall in Game 1, but they'll be forced to play Game 2 in Atlanta without their floor general, as Rajon Rondo has been suspended one game for bumping referee Mark Davis late in Sunday's contest. Boston will likely be without Ray Allen again as well...
