Bustin' a Recap - Games from November 1, 2009
Talk Hoops - Support the Habit — The NBA season hasn’t officially begun for those of us on the West coast until you wake up on a Sunday morning, turn on the TV and get down with a Raptors game at 10am. It’s just one of those great things in case you’re not that into football, your favorite gridiron team is either the 49ers or Raiders, or because you’re not into football because your favorite gridiron team is either the 49ers or the Raiders. ...

Your Morning Dump... where Rondo ain't goin nowhere
RedsArmy.com - The Voice Of Celtics Fans — League sources said the extension is for five years and guarantees Rondo at least $55 million. With the two sides facing a Monday deadline to get a deal done, Duffy said he called Celtics president Danny Ainge on Sunday to inform him Rondo was prepared to play out his contract and become a restricted free agent next summer because ...

What really happened between Paul and Rondo
Hornets247.com Blog — Posted by Niall Doherty I was surprised last night when I read in the AP recap of the Hornets-Celtics game that Chris Paul "pursued [Rajon] Rondo toward the Celtics' locker room and had to be blocked by Boston assistant coaches." That sounded very out of character for CP3. Sure, he has a mean streak on the court and he's not looking to make any friends out there, but that's true only between opening tip and final buzzer. All other times, you'd be hard pressed to find anyone speaking bad about Paul. So him going after Rondo like that didn't make any sense to me. It makes sense now that I've heard the ...

Post Up: Melo vs. Mayo
SLAM Online — by Holly MacKenzie Ooof. It’s tough when the team you watch day in and day out loses. People have constantly been asking me if I’m a Raptors fan, but it’s hard to describe. I’m a basketball fan. I’m a basketball writer. I root for players, good stories and great games. That being said, seeing the same group of guys every day at practice, hearing them talk about how much they want to do the right things and win, watching them stay late after practice to get extra shots up, you want them to succeed. That being said, it was easy to fall in love with the game the Magic were playing yesterday, ...

Chris Paul vs. Rajon Rondo: The Battle of the Decade
Dime Magazine — Whether Chris Paul and Rajon Rondo like it or not , the two are going to be going at it for at least the next 10 years. Eastern Conference or Western Conference, it doesn’t matter. They could face each other in the preseason the postseason or a pickup game and the two might still feel the same thing: disdain. After the two got tangled up under the basket in the second quarter last night, the tension just seemed to build. While referees stepped in and each guy was assessed a tech, it didn’t stop things from getting ugly after the game when Paul pursued Rondo toward the Celtics’ locker room and had to be blocked by ...

Rajon Rondo And Chris Paul Argue After Celtics vs Hornets Game
FanIQ Blog — Rajon Rondo has signed an extension with the Celtics now, and has his big-money contract. But apparently it hasn't slowed down his trash talk at all, as he got in Chris Paul's face after the Celtics' game against the Hornets. After the game, the media members were instructed not to ...

A Whole Lotta Fuss Over Nothing If You Ask Me
Hornets Hype — But it still looks like Rondo started it. And if Chris Paul tried to follow anyone into locker rooms and had to be prevented by security, it’s not on this video. (This is from the Celtics’ feed, by the way, since CST didn’t show the end-of-the-game scuffle.) It looks like CP and Paul Pierce were talking when Rondo butted in and got up in Chris’ face. CP immediately sticks his hands in the air and backs up, talking the whole time. Pierce steps between the two, and meanwhile Eddie House grabs Rondo and hauls him off. And then a couple of seconds later, Devin Brown comes and drags CP off in the other direction and that ...

Rajon Rondo vs. Chris Paul
John Clay's Sidelines — Meanwhile, this scribe at the Bleacher Report is not a Rondo fan. Here’s video of the Rajon Rondo/Chris Paul confrontation at the end of Sunday night’s Boston-New Orleans game.

Raptors Make It Look Easy In The Big Easy
Hoop Heads North — For a second, I thought I was watching a 2008-09 Orlando Magic game. My brain fart ended when I clued in that Hedo was wearing Raptor's red and Dwight Howard looked slimmer and with dreads because he was Chris Bosh. Toronto played a solid 48-minute game and used a lights out 3rd quarter to knock out New Orleans early and cruised to a 107-90 win. The Hornets were outscored 34-14 in the third as the Raptors played some solid D to go with their hot shooting. The Raptors had 8 three pointers in the 3rd quarter, finishing 14-29 overall from behind the arc. With the win well in hand, I was able to make use of my NBA League Pass Broadband to ...
