We often wonder what opposing teams, their beat reporters and bloggers are saying about the Celtics. Here’s a look at some enemy chatter from Portland.
Appropriate to the season, Rajon Rondo made mincemeat out of Damian Lillar in the first. He squirted past Portland’s defense repeatedly.
…
The Celtics continued to foil Lillar and his mates with screens for open jumpers as the third period commenced, but the Blazers were able to respond with Aldridge scoring inside.
…
Damian Lillar(d) shot 4-14 for 12 points but added 9 rebounds of his own. He yin-yanged his assists and turnovers with 5 each. I assume we don’t have to comment on the other end of the floor much?
Turns out Rajon Rondo isn’t the only point guard in the league criticized for his lack of defense.
As an homage to Damian Lillard’s defensive failures, this Blazers blogger leaves the final ‘d’ off his name.
Ouch.
Amazes me that Rondo still gets guys to bite on the behind-the-back fake.
