"That was one of the reasons for wanting Michael in here. I found myself letting the Bulls succeed on their own.

Yeah, a little bit. Any smart team (like the Lakers last night) plays six feet off Rondo in tight games, daring him to shoot, paralyzing Boston's offense and leading to the dreaded 'Clogged Toilet' play (Pierce ending up with the ball 25 feet from the hoop with seven seconds left trying to create something). It's almost like playing with a handicap. Screw that, it IS like playing with a handicap. It's also curious that the Celtics came alive defensively when Rondo missed eight games, mostly thanks to Avery Bradley, who flashed Tony Allen/Bruce Bowen-type potential as a perimeter defender (and that's not hyperbole). For the first time, I find myself hoping they deal Rondo .... He needs a change of scenery, and really, so might Celtics fans. I can't watch another 84-82 game with his guy playing five feet off him. I really can't. Enough already."</p></div> http://www.blogabull.com/2012/2/11/2792854/bill-simmons-celtics-fan-rants-about-rondo Tim S. 2012-02-11T20:08:42Z 2012-02-11T20:08:42Z <img alt="Tumblr_lz8vpum1ya1qg43mqo1_1280" src="http://cdn2.sbnation.com/fan_shot_images/240115/tumblr_lz8vpuM1yA1qg43mqo1_1280.jpg" /> <div class="source source-img"><p>My newest Bulls illustration - <a href="http://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz8vpuM1yA1qg43mqo1_1280.jpg?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAJ6IHWSU3BX3X7X3Q&Expires=1329137955&Signature=FzqM5jH0wdMDLX5g68tLzjZK2%2B0%3D" target="new">view larger</a> | <a href="http://cheekymonkeyart.zenfolio.com/p824300667/h2ca697c7#h2ca697c7" target="new">purchase</a></p></div> http://www.blogabull.com/2012/2/11/2792108/my-newest-bulls-illustration-also-available-for-purchase-here David Taylor 2012-02-11T00:08:53Z 2012-02-11T00:08:53Z <img alt="6851670003_80e6d17827_b" src="http://cdn2.sbnation.com/fan_shot_images/240007/6851670003_80e6d17827_b.jpg" /> <div class="source source-img"><p>newest SLM: <a href="http://smellslikemascot.blogspot.com/2012/02/dozen-roses.html" target="new">A Dozen Roses</a></p></div> http://www.blogabull.com/2012/2/10/2790792/newest-slm-a-dozen-roses thatshortkid 2012-02-10T20:35:40Z 2012-02-10T20:35:40Z <blockquote> <p>Word is that the Bulls' natural preference is playing out the season with one of the league's consensus top-three rosters and seeing how far they can go.
