PISTONS RUMORS & GOSSIP

Rondo Throws Ball At Ref – Gets Ejected & Suspended For 2 Games

I don’t know what is more surprising: the Celtics losing to the Detroit Pistons 96-81 or Rondo showing enough emotion that he would have the balls to throw a ball at a ref. I mean you gotta know the NBA is more protective of their refs than a dad is of his hot 17 year old girl going to get a football signed by Mark Sanchez. The NBA came down with their ruling, and decided...

Recap: We can only hope and pray that was rock bottom

If you missed tonight's 96-81 loss to the Detroit Pistons, consider yourself lucky. This was an absolute embarrassment. The Pistons dominated this game while shooting 38%. How is that possible? The Cs served up 22 turnovers and allowed 42 points in the paint. Detroit had a 46 to 15 advantage in free throws. It seems ridiculous and unjust, but I didn't think the officiating...

Rondo ejected, Pistons win easily, 96-81

Are the Pistons the new kryptonite for the Celtics? It sure feels that way with Boston dropping their second game in one week to the Detroit Pistons with the score 96-81. The Pistons have won 7 of their past 9, which might be the only encouraging sign to take from this game. Missing Kevin Garnett and Brandon Bass has not been a pleasant experience for the Celtics. Boston looked...

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- For a few crazy minutes Tuesday night, it was 2005 again at The Palace.
