I'm Focused, Man

I made the All-Star sophomore team, and I'm looking forward to going down to New Orleans. Some of my family members are going down to watch me play in the game. I will mostly be relaxing and enjoying myself the whole weekend. I have some events to go to, and I have to go see my homie Rudy in the dunk contest. He's going up against my old teammate G. Green. That's going to be a good contest. I may go to see Kentucky play while I'm down there-not sure yet. I have to check and make sure I don't have anything already set up first. Other than getting prepared for the trip to New Orleans, I'm just doing my regular...resting and preparing for our upcoming games.

Last Thursday's game against Dallas was great. I'm glad we came off that one with a W. I went to the Mayor's Cup Breakfast at Fenway Park this past Saturday. It was a really nice charity event. This past weekend was actually really great for me. I got to get some good rest, and I needed that.

As for the Super Bowl, I don't think that there was one person in all of New England that wasn't just gravely hurt. That had to be the hardest loss for the Pats-going 18-0 all season and losing the only game in the Super Bowl. I wouldn't know what to do. I have much respect for those guys though. They had an amazing season at 18-1. I got together with a few of my teammates and watched the game. It was fun watching the game with them. We laughed and joked around up until the last few minutes of the game-that's when it got serious.

Now, we're in Cleveland. We play the Cavaliers tomorrow. I'm about to lay it down for the night. I'll holla!

	I take it you're a Pats man? Or did you just want to see history?

	Oh...congratulations on making the all-star sophmore team. You deserve it! That should be a good game.

	That was really painful. It's right up there with Magic's hook in '87, Buckner in '86, and oh so many Sox losses. They should be back next year and hopefully as good. It's you guys I'll be focusing on for sports. Great game against the Mavs. You were absolutely terrific, shining on national TV. That was a great rebound and put back against Dirk. I'm looking forward to seeing you guys play. Hey, good luck, and we're so glad that you'll be spending your All-Star break in New Orleans. You definitely deserved the honor. One question though: who are you rooting for? Gerald Green to repeat or Rudy Gay to upset him? Any way you get involved in these dunks?

	Congrats Rajon on making the team. We're all proud of ya here in KY. I really hope you can make it to the UK game while you're there. I think the team would like seeing some former UK players coming around to support them. Chuck was at the Houston game earlier in the season and the players loved meeting him. Anyways, keep up the great work. GO CATS!! and Celtics! lol

	You played a hell of a game tonight, but I'm glad my Cavs won! Your midrange game seems to be coming along nicely though. Keep putting in that work... as long as it isn't against the wine and gold.

	Rajon, I saw Tubby was at the Minnesota game and was wondering if you got a chance to talk to him. He is one classy guy and know he was there to see you play..

	Let me be honest with you Rondo. I am a UK fan and was at UK while you were there and I honestly had my doubts about you going to the NBA so early because I didn't think that any teams would take a chance on a guy that wasn't a great shooter like most NBA players are especially in the first round. Boy did you prove me wrong! You have done a great job at Boston and they are now by far my favorite team with you on it. You proved to yourself that you were good enough for the NBA and thats all that mattered, you didn't need to prove it to anyone else but you did. Congrats man and keep doing what you do.

	Not to stir the pot or anything but Rajon probably saved his NBA chances by going early and getting away from the slowed down style we call TubbyBall! Rajon never really was able to shine at UK because of the slow style of play.Leaving UK early before he got a reputation for being slow was probably the best thing for his career.

	Hey Rajon, I really think you've made a great leap in the past couple of months with your playing ability. Im beginning to think that in maybe a couple of years time and you'd be THE point guard in NBA. Keep up the good work! Keep Boston hot on court!

	Great job at the Breakfast of Champions. I was one of the female panelist to your far right. Please email me when you have time -- I have a business proposition for you.

	Rajon, I think you could play center too, you're a rebounding machine....wish you guys ran up the score on the Knicks a bit more tonight, they deserve a good beating.

	Thanks for coming to the Cats game today Rajon. I really appreciate you taking the time to show up. The CATS pulled out a close one. Great way to bounce back from the Vandy disaster. THANKS AGAIN RAJON. Good luck the rest of the season with the Celtics. :)

	I second WildcatFanatic's post and i'm sure the Cat's appreciated it also. You mean so much to the Kentucky program and their fans. The kentucky message boards are loaded with posts about your success in the NBA and the way you are handling your success..Go Celtics and go Cats!!
