MSG, You've Been Rondo'd

When Rondo plays like this, he's without question in the debate for the top point guard spot in the league. 15 points. 20 assists. 11 rebounds. First playoff triple-double in MSG since some guy named Jordan in 1993. New single-playoff game assist record for the Celtics.

People thought MSG was gonna be rocking. You know, inspire the Knicks to victory. Hell, I'll admit, I was worried that it was gonna turn into the MSG of old. Well understand this New York bandwagoners. Melo isn't Bernard King, no matter how many 42 point games he has. Billups isn't Earl Monroe, no matter how many times people try to force the nickname, "Mr. Big Shot". Amare isn't Willis Reed. Willis Reed ate back spasms for breakfast, and would kick Amare's ass with both legs broken.   (Now that I think about it, bandwagon fans have no idea who those legends even are. Pathetic.)  This isn't a championship team. Try as hard as you want to convince yourselves, these guys by themselves are not bringing a championship back to MSG. Not with Jared Jeffries and Bill Walker flanking them. 

Maybe if they sign CP3 or Deron, they'll have a shot. But until then, enjoy these first round exits.
