Nate Robinson Volunteers To Suit Up For Bulls After Rajon Rondo Injury
by Zack Cox on Fri, Apr 21, 2017 at 5:24PM 2,436 Share this: The Chicago Bulls made a surprising announcement Friday afternoon, ruling former Boston Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo out for that night’s game against his old team. Now, another ex-Celtic wants to take his place. Nate Robinson, who played for both the Celtics and the Bulls during his NBA career, volunteered his services on Twitter ahead of Game 3 of the teams’ first-round playoff series. Sure, Robinson might be a bit past his prime now, but the one season he spent with the Bulls was one of the best of his career. He appeared in all 82 games for Chicago in 2012-13, starting 23 and averaging 13.1 points and 4.4 assists per game. Nowadays, the 5-foot-9
Russell Westbrook Doesn’t Give A (Expletive) About His Game 2 Stats In Loss
Share this: Russell Westbrook did everything he could during the Oklahoma City Thunder’s Game 2 loss to the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night at Toyota Center. Westbrook scored 51 points in the highest-scoring triple-double in NBA playoff history. But it wasn’t enough, as James Harden’s 35 points propelled the Rockets to a 115-111 come-from-behind win in their first-round NBA playoff series. And Westbrook, arguably the MVP front-runner, went cold in the fourth quarter, shooting a lowly 4-for-18 from the field in the final frame. When he was asked about his record-setting performance after the game, Westbrook responded as you would expect. Warning: This video has NSFW language.

Celtics Notes: Rajon Rondo Dazzles In Bulls’ Game 2 Win Over Celtics
Share this: BOSTON — The playoffs are not a new stage for Rajon Rondo. The Chicago Bulls point guard has a bevy of postseason experience, most coming from his nine seasons with the Boston Celtics, with whom he won an NBA championship in 2008. Rondo seems to bring his A-game when the lights shine brightest, and that certainly was the case in the Bulls’ 111-97 Game 2 win over the Celtics at TD Garden on Tuesday night. The veteran point guard stuffed the stat sheet in Game 2, scoring 11 points to go along with 14 assists and nine rebounds. Not only was Rondo spectacular on the offensive end, he also took on the tough task of guarding Isaiah Thomas. He did a respectable job
Celtics Notes: Isaiah Thomas Plays With Heavy Heart In Loss To Bulls
Share this: BOSTON — No one would have batted an eye had Isaiah Thomas turned in a poor performance in the Boston Celtics’ Game 1 matchup against the Chicago Bulls on Sunday night. Thomas took the TD Garden floor just one day after his 22-year-old sister tragically was killed in a single-car crash in Washington early Saturday morning. But just when you thought Thomas ran out of amazing moments, the All-Star point guard delivered another one Sunday night. Although the Celtics ultimately were edged by the Chicago Bulls 106-102, Thomas turned in a tremendous performance despite the circumstances. He posted a game-high with 33 points and nearly led the Celtics to a Game 1 win in their first-round NBA playoff series. Boston head coach Brad Stevens praised
Isaiah Thomas Crying On Court Made Charles Barkley ‘Uncomfortable’
Share this: Isaiah Thomas entered the Boston Celtics’ matchup with the Chicago Bulls on Sunday with emotions running high. Just a day before Game 1 of his team’s first-round playoff series, Thomas tragically lost his 22-year-old sister to a single-car crash in Washington. The star guard was hurting entering the game against the Bulls, which Celtics head coach Brad Stevens attested to prior to the matchup. Thomas manifested these feelings prior to the game, as he was visibly emotional during player introductions when the TD Garden crowd gave him a raucous ovation. While Thomas received unwavering support for taking the floor Sunday, the emotion he showed hours before tip-off was not well received by one basketball analyst. Speaking on TNT’s “Inside the NBA” on Sunday, Charles Barkley
Celtics Notes: No. 2 Seed No Longer A Given For Boston After Another Loss
Share this: Roughly 28 hours ago, the Boston Celtics were real contenders for the Eastern Conference’s No. 1 seed. Now? Not so much. And, if they aren’t careful over their final three games, the No. 1 spot might be the least of their worries. The C’s now are 50-29 after back-to-back devastating losses to the Cleveland Cavaliers and Atlanta Hawks. As a result, not only are they 1.5 games behind the Cavs for the top spot, but their lead over the Toronto Raptors and Washington Wizards is down to two games with three contests left to play. And, to make matters worse for Boston, it lost the season series to the Cavaliers and Raptors, so it’s virtually two games back of Cleveland
