... Gary Dzen of The Boston Globe: “Rajon Rondo made his case for the All-Star team tonight. Three times over. Rondo recorded the first triple-double of his young NBA career tonight against the Indiana Pacers, stuffing the stat sheet with 16 points, 17 assists, and 13 rebounds. When he was done, the Celtics had a 114-96 win over a team that beat them a month earlier, and Rondo had his campaign slogan: Triple threat. How good was Rondo? He almost recorded a triple-double in the first half (he was one rebound and two assists shy), and might have accomplished the feat had he not ...

... of the moment, he's averaging 7.7 apg to go along with 4.7 rebounds (3rd among PGs), 2.2 steals (4th in the league) and better than 50% shooting from the floor. While he's still shaky at best with his jumper an ugly 62% free throw shooter, he's clearly emerged as something more than a "supporting" member of Boston's nucleus.
