Reason #2,348 Rajon Rondo is Awesome

Rondo is showing his aggressiveness and growth since 2008. Ray had an incredible game, but I think last night's game 2 vs the Lakers was arguably Rondo's best all around game as a Celtic. This video slo-mo is amazing.

Yep - saw you guys chatting about this on Twitter and took a look. Amazing... love the look on Pierce's face and the bench reaction in the background. Great clip!

as I'm watching this video I'm thinking, "wait, there is no way that Rondo recovers and blocks this shot as the title suggests." And then *BAM* Rondo kicks into his 7th gear and Fisher is like, "WTF just happened?"

Bonus is the fact that as Pierce recovers the ball, he whacks Artest in the face as he's coming down. The slow motion makes this extra awesome.

Sorry - one more thing. Watching this video again, I realize that Rondo knew exactly what he was doing. The initial fake/run by was just a decoy. Amazing!

Sure Allen and Rondo played amazingly well last night in Game 2, but if Boston wants to win the series, the rest of the team needs to step up...
Ahem! I'm talking about you KG and Paulie.
