Heat @ Celtics Game 3 Preview

I have been watching basketball (mostly Celtics) for over 11 years now. I feel I have a very good understand of what a player can do, how gameplans are playing out, and an overall idea of the flows of the game.

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND RONDO.

I have probably been one of his biggest critics. I still feel I had/have good reason to do so. Yet, I am done trying to figure him out. Game 2 ended that for me. He is unreal, that was one of the most unreal thing I have ever seen, and if the refs didn't buttfuck him at the end of the game it probably would've been the most unreal game ever.

Why am I done trying to figure out Rondo, because tonight he could score 40 then again he could score 10. He could have 20 assists tonight, he could have 6. He could have 15 rebs, or he might have 15. I am even fine with all that, but last game when Rondo hit free throws like he's been doing it his whole life, and 3's like he's Ray Allen I gave up. There is no understanding this man. I know he want win, or at least wants to win when there back is against the wall. It is tonight, so I expect big things, then again Rondo likes blood to trickle out of my nose, so who the hell knows.

DP is our Celtics guy. He bleeds GREEN more than anyone else. He will always pick them to win, no matter what. I am not that guy. I love the Celtics. The Big 3 era has been unreal, yet I can't deny that I think this series ended when Rondo got hit in the face and the Heat took the lead in Game 2 to never lose it again. I think this series is over.

That being said, I think the Celtics can win tonight. I can see the Heat backing off a bit, and I think Pierce/KG are going to have unreal games tonight. Right now you put a gun to my head I would say Heat in 5. If Celtics won Game 2, this is a different series. I really hope I am wrong, but the Celtics through EVERYTHING they had at the Heat last game and still lost. It doesn't matter that it's the refs, all that matters is the series is 0-2 and the Heat took the Celtics best shot. That can be disheartening. How much so we will find out tonight.

95% of the teams that go up 2-0 win the series in the NBA. That being said the Celtics have Rondo. Rondo is not the 95%. If there is any hope it rests that that little bastards hands.

Celtics win 90-86
Tommy Award: Brandon Bass

I know odd pick, but Doc need to play him more, and he should be killing the Heat's front. It can't just be KG. Bass can make some serious money for next year if he comes out and scores 20+. I think he does.
