Perhaps it was the .323 team shooting percentage, Avery Bradly going 5 for 22 or just the simple fact that Boston got annihilated up and down the court Tuesday night losing to the Rockets 109-85. Needless to say Rondo’s face pretty much summed up the Celtics’ night after taking a glance at the team’s stat sheet.
Baxter Holmes of the Boston Globe also gave nice insight into Boston’s disastrous outing in Houston.
The Celtics were in the game, right there with the Rockets, the score all tied up. They hadn’t missed one shot, made one mistake, and hadn’t given up a single basket, either.
And then the referee tossed the ball up.
Four minutes later, the Rockets led, 18-1.
It’s going to be a long season…
