The Celtics start off the second half of the season with back to back wins. The C's have struggled with back to back games in the past but the team is now 5-0 when the second game of the back to back is played at home. Tonight, the Celtics pulled out an impressive win at home against the Milwaukee Bucks. In this game Rajon Rondo recorded his third triple double of the season with 15 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists. Rondo is now the only player in the NBA with more than one triple double. This says a lot for a point guard to achieve this milestone and I feel Rondo is one of the most complete players in the league, besides weakness in his jump shot. Kevin Garnett had a good game as well shooting 50 percent and scoring 25 points with 10 boards. The Boston Celtics are now 17-17 on the season and looking to lock in the 7th seed over the Knicks. I think the Celtics have the fire power to get a high seed for the playoffs but the team needs to stay healthy. Their have been rumors that Danny Ainge is agressively trying to shop Rajon Rondo and this could mean the end of the Celtics hopes for a playoff run. Rondo is the engine that makes the Celtics go and is a player the C's can rebuild around. This is not going to help the Chemistry in Boston and will only be worth while if the C's can grab a Dwight Howard Caliber player.
