What you've done for me recently

The Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen version.  I'm not trying to prove any sort of point, just trying to show a little appreciation and because we forget so quickly.

Game 2, Bulls Series.  Cs are down 5 with 3 minutes left.  Rondo had resprained his ankle before half time, but when it matters, he won't let the team lose.  Out of a time out, RR steals the ball from Rose and converts a layup.  Two possessions later he hits a jumper over Noah and the score is 112-111, Cs.  Ben Gordon scores, but Rondo grabs an O board on the other end and dishes to Ray for a 3, 115-113.  Just when it seems that Gordon has done the impossible and tied up the game again to send it into OT, Ray Ray hits a rainbow of a 3 pointer over Noah's outstretched hand, saving the C's season.

Game 3-Rondo scores 20 points and grabs 11 rebounds while holding Rose to 9 points, 2 assists, and 7 TOs.  Celtics cruise.

Game 4- Despite the Celtics loss, Rondo has 25-11-11 and only 1 TO, while Ray Ray scores 28.

Game 6-Ray Allen scores 51 points in a double overtime effort on 33 year old legs.  Nuff said.

Orlando series, Game 2.  PP is clearly struggling and only manages to score 3 points the entire game.  Normally, this would mean a Cs loss, but Rondo puts in his third triple double of the playoffs, Eddie goes crazy for 31 points, and Ray scores a cool 22.  The Cs blow out the Magic, and Rajon dunks over Howard and Lewis for good measure.

Be respectful and keep it clean. Thanks.
