The Count: The Celtics point guard isn't a threat from outside even when left open, which has made him an anomaly among NBA guards and endangered Boston's title hopes. A look at morning headlines, including John Havlicek's visit to the Celtics' practice facility and the 0-2 inspiration he provided: ESPN Boston via kwoutAnd a look at headlines in Miami, including Rajon Rondo as Barry Sanders: Heat Index via kwout Read more Rajon Rondo news Paul Pierce, Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen all left Game 2 at one point with injuries, but none are considered serious. (05-03) 20:03 PDT MIAMI (AP) -- With the outcome decided in the final seconds, LeBron James walked toward Mario Chalmers to begin his version of a celebration. He playfully punched his teammate twice in the chest.... The Celtics writhed on the floor, threatening to stand to their feet, promising to snap out of the sleeper hold Miami held them in, but every time they came close to gaining their footing Miami applied a little more pressure and the Celtics fell back down into the struggle. This was unexpected, the Heat beating [...] MIAMI (AP) -- The first truly hard foul of the game came about five minutes after tip-off, when Rajon Rondo wrapped his arms around LeBron James to thwart a fast break.... Scroll down below to find out what Lebron James told Rajon Rondo during the Heat's Game 1 victory against the Boston Celtics this past Sunday. "Get that sh*t out of my house" ! Rondo should of known better. The Knicks can at least take solace in the fact that they made an impact on the second round of the NBA playoffs. By failing to stay up with Rajon Rondo as they were swept into summer last weekend, the Knicks helped reinforce an indisputable fact for the Miami Heat, which earned an easy 99-90 victory Sunday over Boston: as Rondo goes, so go the Celtics. (05-01) 15:30 PDT MIAMI (AP) -- Dwyane Wade knew his regular-season numbers against Boston were lacking. He also knew that wouldn't matter in the playoffs. And Game 1 _ which seemed more like Round 1 _ of what's already... EASTERN CONFERENCE SEMIFINALS: No. 2 Miami vs. No. 3 Boston. Season series: Boston, 3-1. What to look for: How Miami handles Rajon Rondo. Prediction: Celtics in 6. The NBA playoffs started today and it only took the second game to provide us with another memorable Lebron James chasedown block.Poor Rajon Rondo, he never saw it coming: Between them, the elder version of the Big 3 Boston's Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce have been selected to 33 All-Star games, won a regular season ... Oct. 26, at Boston: Celtics 88, Heat 80 The Celtics defended their home court in a much-hyped season opener, holding the Heat to 30 points in the first half. Rajon Rondo dished out 17 assists and It's a guard's game now, or so many in the NBA firmly believe. The proliferation of talented playmakers -- from Derrick Rose and Chris Paul, to Rajon Rondo and Deron Williams -- has created the perception that little men have taken over the league. And maybe they have. There will be a point guard (Rose) raising the MVP trophy soon and three others (Paul, Rondo and Russell Westbrook) who have made measurable impacts on their first-round series. (no more questions from the man in the Nets jersey, please) In the aftermath of being swept by the defending Eastern Conference champs, some are focusing on whether or not Chauncy Billups, Mike D'Antoni or Donnie Walsh are returning to the Knicks next season, or perhaps on Boston's Rajon Rondo shaking off late season slump [...] Yesterday, before the New York Knicks tried to avoid a sweep at the hands of the Boston Celtics (unsuccessfully), head coach Mike D'antoni expressed that he was less than impressed with Rajon Rondo's ability as a player. Rondo had a triple double in Game 3 with 15 points 11 rebounds and 20 assists and here's what D'Antoni [...] NEW YORK - The Boston Celtics made the New York Knicks' return to the postseason a brief one. Kevin Garnett had 26 points and 10 rebounds, Rajon Rondo added 21 points and 12 assists, and the Celtics swept their way into the Eastern Conference semifinals, holding on for a 101-89 victory over the Knicks on Sunday.     Are Miami fans nervous yet? Not because the 76ers beat the Heat on Sunday. No. The question is more about how good Boston has looked the last two games. Rajon Rondo has played on another level and Kevin Garnett looks like he's 25 instead of 225. The Celtics swept the Knicks in four games after it looked like New ... The Celtics' Rajon Rondo drove by the Knicks in the first half. NEW YORK -- It was nothing Rajon Rondo hadn't heard before. It would be hard to find a point guard in the NBA who doesn't think Rondo's lucky to be surrounded by future Hall of Famers.
