First of all I'd like to state how truly disappointed I am with espn3.com. I thought the picture would be better on there than this stupid GCTV Gordon hooked us up with. But instead I had to deal with a whole lot of choppy, blurry, images. espn3.com, take a lap.
But anyways that's not the only reason this game was tough to watch. HELLO?! RONDO'S A GAME?! BARK TWICE IF YOU'RE IN MILWAUKEE. I thought that was a good time for a Ron Burgundy reference. But seriously, what was his deal? We can probably blame his performance on the wild Milwaukee night life. He finished with as many turnovers as assists, with 8. But as Mike Brown pointed out, Rondo can pick it up down the stretch and get it done. Mike Brown would know all about that, it's a big part of why he was unemployed for a while.
P Twice continues to impress me. These youthful, springy leg dunks are starting to get a little silly. I feel like he only had one or two all of the last two seasons. Does that show how banged up he was last year? Probably. I'd really appreciate it if he could keep going with these impression of his 25 year old self.
The last two minutes of this game highlighted the biggest difference that remains between the C's and the Super-Friends. We execute in crunch time on both sides of the ball. KG blocked Luc Richard Long Name's layup attempt which pretty much sealed it.
Each of the Big Three hit a clutch bucket in the closing minutes. Ray with his vintage mid-range jumper off the pick, KG with the 10 foot fadeaway, and Paul got that 3 point play with just 18 seconds left to put the game completely out of reach.
5 in a row for the C's. 4 losses in a row for the Super-Friends. Happy face.
