Yes, the Celtics beat the Warriors 109-95. But for 2 1/2 quarters, we had to watch another crap effort from this team. Not only is Golden State bad, but they're also severely undermanned. Enough about the negative...The Celts broke this one open midway through the 3rd. Tied at...

Rajon Rondo has unveiled a new move this season: the quick change of direction. It's a simple move, but it's so nasty. He busted it out twice against the Jazz. Very simply... he slows down and makes it look like he's going to take the ball out and set the play and then...
