Rajon Rondo Suspended for Game Two of Celtics-Hawks, So Boston's Down 0-2, Right?
By Jason McIntyre
Hey, remember Saturday afternoon? Derrick Rose went down and the knee-jerk sofa analysts went wild – Boston had an easy path to the Eastern Conference finals! And Boston owns Miami, so … Boston could get back to the Finals!
Well, that’s still possible … the Celtics will just need a heroic performance from Paul Pierce to prevent an 0-2 deficit against the Hawks. Considering Rondo drives the offense and is a terrific defensive player, my game two guess: Atlanta 94, Boston 78.
Oh, and Bill Simmons broke out the investigative hat and monocle and tweeted this video earlier. Wonder if Marc Davis will call another Atlanta-Boston game in this series?
