    Rondo has flu

    Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo is battling flu-like symptoms and the team sent him home from Friday's practice session, but he is expected to play in Saturday's Game 1 against Miami.
    "Yeah, [Rondo is] pretty bad," admitted coach Doc Rivers. "[Glen Davis] missed [Thursday's session], he's been sick, so whatever Tony has, it's spread around the team right now. Rondo, we had him do film, then we did a walkthrough and then we told him go home.
    "He's going to play. I don't know how he's going to feel. I don't anticipate him feeling great, he's throwing up and everything else last night and all day today. I know we sent him to the hospital to do IV work and stuff like that. other than that, it is what it is."

    i won't touch C's in game 1 cuzza this. he's the main speed man. not to mention he got it from Tony Allen. I dunno.. have to see the first half.. it's going to be a cool rainy day up here.
    Rondo needs to be 100%

    Maybe he'll be like Jordan and have the game of his life while battling the flu.

    I think we're going to see the Celtics fizzle in the playoffs. Maybe time to rebuild.

    I'm just concerned that he sounds so sick, watching the late night local coverage, it's going around the team. Weather is 30's and rain. Tony Allen is a great defender, if he still has it, that's no good, and who's next.. thing with Rondo is he's all over the place, his energy is what creates plays and many of his layups are based on fakes that require perfect physical execution.
