I like Rondo's demeanor -- serious and alert -- which is impressive for a
rookie.  This is no young and lost Gerald Green.

Best moment?  Just *after* he hit the three with negative time on the
clock to send the game into overtime.  One fist up in the air, no change
in expression.  "Act like you've done it before," indeed.

No *way* you can prepare for a moment like that -- it was his natural
reaction.  "OK, that mission accomplished.  Now let's win the overtime."
Quite Delonte-esque.  He came close to doing it, too.

Oh, speaking of Gerald Green, he's no Gerald Green any more, either.  In
the first game, he was nailing jumpers and flushing windmill jams, and
he was all business, all the time.

I missed his sheepish smile.  But I liked realizing he could be turning into
a very scary player.
