Celtics' Rondo Silenced Heralded Foe Billups

In the BOSTON GLOBE, Julian Benbow writes "deep down in the scrum of media - below the cameraman on the stepladder, inside the layers of notepads and recorders - there was an oddly empty locker, with Rajon Rondo's picture and nothing else. No shirts, no slacks, no shoes other than a pair of basketball sneakers. No sight of Rondo, just a crowd of people waiting to ask him a lot of the questions he had heard all season in some new form. One interrogator pestered Doc Rivers so much that the Celtics coach admitted he got testy. The question was about Rondo's matchup with his Pistons counterpart, All-Star point guard Chauncey Billups. It's been that way since October. No surprise to Rivers now." [link]
