Rondo Tears ACL

[Ironman8]

Wow. Terrible news. Really liked watching him play. Hope he can recover quickly.

Celtics are f*cked. To be honest they already were, but now it's official.

That pretty much sums it up. I bet they play better in the short term (next 1-2 weeks) but they probably won't make the playoffs

Now Kyrie Irving is the best acvive PG in the Eastern Conference.. And it won't be long before he's the best in the entire NBA, even when everyone else is healthy. He's unreal.

Damn that sucks. I am a full-blown Celtics hater, but I hate to see that happen to the kid, who has incredible game that really is unique to anyone else's game in the league, perhaps the history of the league.

Hope he can come back and be himself again...

Bold statement!

Maybe, but I agree completely so long as Rose is still out and it's unknown how he will come back. The only other person even in the conversation right now is Jrue IMO.

I was talking about the "even when they get back" part. Irving is legit, just needs to stay healthy.

devastating news - they didn't look like they were going anywhere, but there was always the possibility they could make a run. season is over without Rondo.

that said - they just pulled off a classic 'celtic pride' win. might end up being the highlight of the season.

Awful. It will be a long season without Rondo , . The Bruins are doing well though . The Celtics were going to have a tough go at it just to go to the Eastern Conference finals . It is over .

Start the bus . Maybe Ainge makes some deals for the future ? I forgot the trade deadline . Hopefully it is not over .

As much as I hate the Cavs, they got another slam dunk with Kyrie. I really like watching him and Thompson play. Thompson seems to get better every game. Since I don't have the NBA package I'm forced to watch the Cavs a lot.

Jrue is having a really good season. He's really unreal right now.

John Wall is back and healthy when he's playing he's pretty special. Deron is still pretty good. I'd say that Kyrie might be the best PG in the Eastern Conference right now. I don't know though, John Wall is pretty damn good too. He's still on a minute restriction too. Pretty close...
