Rajon Rondo continued his aggressive play with 15 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals in just 25 minutes of play. He definitely out-played Calderon in this game.
Perk had a good game and was aggressive going to the basket and on the boards. He finished with 12 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block in 26 minutes. One area of concern is that he picked up his 8th technical. Bosh locked up his arm and Perk was just trying to get loose and was called for a technical. Poor guy can't catch a break!
For the third game in a row, Pierce had a quiet game with 11 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals in 24 minutes. Unlike last game, he didn't need to go into the booth and come out as Superman. Instead, he got a nice long rest on the bench as the second unit took care of business.
Leon Powe and Big Baby came off the bench and played against the Raptors starters for much of the time and did very well. Leon had 8 points and 3 rebounds while Big Baby had 7 points and 5 rebounds.
KG had a solid game with 15 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, and 1 block in 29 minutes. His biggest contribution was on the defensive end where he held Chris Bosh to 24 points in 42 minutes, stopping his string of 40+ point games at 2.
Ray Allen had a great game with 21 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists in 31 minutes. Ray played the most minutes of any of the starters. It is a good thing to be able to blow teams out and keep all the starters at 30 minutes or below.
Tony Allen brought a spark off the bench. He drove to the basket over and over and took a lot of hard hits, but just kept going at them and it paid off. He finished with 15 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal. He also played some very good defense. Now if he can do that on a consistent basis, Celtics fans would soon forget James Posey.
