Back in the A

We just made it back to Atlanta, and I just got finished getting settled in my room. I don't really plan on doing anything tonight but resting. I think I'm going to grab something to eat and watch film for the rest of the night. We had practice earlier today in Boston. After practice, we got on the plane to come down here, so now I'm pretty tired.

I'm soo glad last nights game went well for us, and we got the W. Overall, as a team, we played better. We attacked, played good D, were intense, played together...pretty much everything we needed to do. We knew that we needed to win last night, so we had to do whatever it took to get the W.

Overall, the playoffs are pretty interesting right now. Every night teams are going out there and bringing their best game. A lot of people thought that we would sweep our series, but Atlanta didn't back down. They have been playing us tough and competing at a very high level. Like the NBA commercials say, " You either bring it or you go home." Right now, it looks as if no one wants to go home. All the match ups have been really interesting, especially the Detroit and Philadelphia one. Fans would have expected Detroit to sweep Philadelphia like they expected us to sweep Atlanta; however, Philadelphia has been playing Detroit tough. They are a real athletic team like Atlanta, and they are playing well right now. This is the NBA "where amazing happens," so we will see how these playoff games go. I will be checking back in soon...I'll holla!

i'm glad you're so focused. good luck tonight.

youve been outplayin mike this whole series, so i know youre straight, but pleaseeeee raj when you're about to make a layup look out for josh.

Keep it up, dude -- it's been awesome watching you and the rest of the Green this year. I've been a fan since the 80s and I'm seriously grateful for the way you've elevated your game this year. Thank you.

Thank you

good luck.. remember mike bibby sucks...

Rondo, good luck tonight man, let's wrap this series up, take care of business, and get it done. My roommate played high school hoop against you, he went to Lexington Catholic in KY. Anyway, we're going to school in Cambridge now, so we've been able to hit a lot of games this year, holding it down in Sec. 330. He's pumped to see a UK boy tearin' it up in the NBA, and I'm pumped that you're tearin' it up in a green uniform. Best of luck for the rest of the season, keep working hard to bring home Banner 17 for the Boston faithful.

good luck. im watching you guys now :D

DEEEETROOOIT BASKEEETTTBALLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!

HOPE YOU PEEPS WiN!!! GOOD JOB ALL SEASON!!!
RONDO YOU ROCK!!!


You know I won the title a couple of times did right
No but they can't hurt us man
We gonna do it, get up in this ring man, put on these gloves
Let me show you how to handle this yourself man

Come on Celtics, we can't lose to the Hawks...right?

Hey Rondo, if you are, don't worry about ATL taking it to 7 games. It's obvious that this series was going to be fixed from the beginning. Bird and co. went through this for a few years too, but they still won - just ask anyone who was on those teams. Do what you do man, you guys are too good to be kept down by the refs.

Thanks man

its pretty much official, good luck in the next round man

Great job Rondo and C's! Knew you would do it. Now go get the Cavs!

I watched game 7, and you and the rest of the team played great!! I can't wait to watch the Cleveland series!!
p.s. I cheered for you in Atlanta :)

I am SOOOOO Glad you guys Finally put the Hawks in their place!!! It sure WAS Loud at the Garden!!!! Are you okay from that flag. foul by Williams??? That looked painful! Your tough!!! Itn't this the 3rd extreme hard fouls that you've taken where they almost took your head off???? Damn!! Hope it's not too bad. take care/rest and go beat the Cavs!!! LOL

GOOD LUCK SUNDAY!

Hope you are allright after that hit today...nice job hitting those free throws because it must have been tough.

I was just wondering if you guys have Aim (instant messenger) and im each other?? I could picture scal with a screen name like RedHeadStallion69.

Rajon - I hope you plan on building some more muscle mass after you guys win No. 17, because it doesn't seem the refs are in any hurry to protect you when you are going to the rim - which really sucks. Stay healthy - you are a hero for bringing the energy you do for Celtics.

Rajon you definitely take some hits. But I tell you what, you just keep getting back up!
I think the refs did a good job though. Williams may have been trying to catch you, but he didnt, he got thrown out for it, and looking back he noticed how bad it looked. This was not a time to blame to refs for anything!

I do think the refs handled that call well, but there were many throughout the series that were bad. On the other hand, sooo glad you got back up after that. You're a fighter... and you seem to get beat up a little too much haha

good luck tomorroww!!

Rajon, If you get a chance let us know how you are doing, How long did you have to stay in the whirpool? If it had been me my next stop would have been a casket!!!!!

Rajon, I want to tell you that you are a Great player and in Italy we are crazy of you!!!!!!
Let's crash Cavaliers!!!!!!!
Go Greens Go Rajon!!!!
Marcel, Milan Italy

Thank you! It's nice to know that I have fans in Italy.

after maxiell and williams, i'm pretty convinced you can run into a brick wall like nothing happened. nice work.

Rajon, I hope you are alright? I hope your back is okay?Ya'll played great I knew ya'll would win. D id you ever have any doubts?I Get some rest before the next series! luv ya lots! Ke

Rajon, I wish you luck against the cavs. Even though Delonte is a good guy I know you'll lock him down and play great team D. It's been fun watching you and the celts the past few months. Thanks for a great season!

luv u rondo and i been watching all year and tell all the haters to get a life lol
GO HARD OR GO HOME #22 ALL DAY (THATS MY NUMBA)
DONT HURT YA SELF TONITE

Thought you might like to see this sick pic of you from game 1 last night. Great game by the way man. Keep it up.

awesome pic!!! thanx for sharing!!

Nice picture

I love you Rajon I've watched every game and if I miss one I DVR it I love you guys and tell every one hi!!
P.s I am only 12 and I am on 4 teams . and please tell Lebron he's goin down Please write back!!
Luv Emily Higgins
I lLOOOOOOOVE you guys !!!!!!!!!

Thank you very much for supporting us. That's impressive that you're on 4 teams. I wasn't on 4 teams when I was 12. Keep up the good work.

hope your back is doing well and get plenty of massages, etc. and be ready to take on dWest!!! So I read Williams will be suspended w/o pay in game 1 of next season. Not too big of a deal but at least the NBA gave some recognization to you and our Celtics. We've been getting some lousy calls so we need to play determined and gain some respect with these refs so they can call a foul when it REALLY is a foul...i.e. when Pierce is making a move and #11 still moving his feet AND heel is IN the circle.....you know what I mean! Play defense as always and I will be rooting for Celtics tom. at the game.....one step closer to banner17!!!! LOL

Great Job, Rajon!! Up to 2-0, go beat them in Cleveland!!

Hopes this is going to remain clean...cuz you are one sexy man...anyway if you would be so kind as to smile at some point in tomorrow's game because when you show off them perfect pearly whites my knees go weak baby!! keep on puttin them cavs where they belong!!! good luck tomorrow....

Goodluck tonight, it's the big game against Cleaveland! Let's hope you guys get into the 3rd round. Your games have been amazing (:
I'm watching it right now. <3

that bang by williams was horrible

Goodluck tonight ( May 10th ) against Cleaveland. You need more playin time, Doc Rivers is making a mistake.
