With Pierce out and Garnett banged up, I am not sure the Celtics have enough healthy bodies to run up and down the court with thew Suns. The Celtics also can not count on another 30 pts 15 assist night from Rondo even though Rondo has had great success against Nsh in the past.

I think the Suns win in a very entertaining game

They can't count on it if they hope to win, but it could happen.

The biggest knock against Rondo when talking about him being an elite point guard is that he can only do it because he's surrounded by superstars. Has anyone notice in the last year that every time a member of the big 3 goes down we see Rondo step up and put up huge numbers? He almost averaged a triple double in the playoffs last year when Garnett was out. Now he's stepping up with Pierce out. Can we all finally agree that Rondo is in the upper tier of point guards right now?

He will be an upepr tier PG, when he begins trusting his shot more and drawing more fouls like he did in his last game

The reason he got the big contract extention was the fact when someone is out he elevates his game

Looks like Garnett may be out tonight and Rondo is dealing with a sore hamstring

Where does he fall in your top 10 right now? Let's say guys you'd want over the next 3 years since I'm thinking more the current class of young point guards.
