celtics appear to take a 3-2 series lead tonight in boston after rondo basically punched brad miller in the mouth on somewhat of a easy layup. miller lost a tooth and was bleeding pretty badly which definitely contributed to him missing the first. im just saying kind of a cheapy by rondo. great series though

Idk man the blood is a little bit of an excuse.

he is an 85% freethrow shooter and basically airballed a freethrow. none the less the next game will be great just like all the others

it wasn't intentional, he was trying to get the ball. bad break for miller, but he still had a minute to get ready for the free throws. really good game tho, this series is bananas

i dont know if youve ever had a tooth knocked out, but its distracting. At the same timeni am kind of making an excuse cause of what i thought of the foul, they were also his only foul shots of the night, but im sure miller will be classy about it and take full responsibility for it.

so glad he finally showed up, there's no way the celtics could win without him hitting some shots. rondo has been great, ray needs to step his game up too.

Doesn't matter Rondo is the man, basically averaging a triple double for the series so far.

the anouncers were clearly saying he lost a tooth and im not sure how you would know better than them, and I wasnt referring to the win as luck, only the call itself which I felt could have been called a flagrant which would have given the bulls free throws and the ball. chill out mang pierce was fire in the end and boston got the win.

i just find it hard to believe that a minute after loosing a tooth, he would go back in.

yeah he didn't lose a tooth, he just got a fat lip.  and yes, it was lucky for the celtics that a flagrant wasn't called..
