C's Heat Up in South Beach

Once again Rajon Rondo shows off his outstanding court vision through his 16 assists on the way to a Celtics' 112-107 victory over Lebron James and the Miami Heat. It was the second meeting of the season between these two teams and so far the Celtics are 2-0 against the revamped Heat. Unless you were living under a rock this past summer you are well aware that Mr. Lebron James decided to "take his talent to South Beach" so that he could team up with buddies Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh. Of course as soon as this triumphviate was assembled the media ran with it and the NBA champions of the 2010-2011 season were crowned. The defending Eastern Champs, Boston Celtics, were just an after thought and in many critics eyes they did not have a chance to get back to the NBA Finals. Well Lebron and the rest of 2010-2011 on-paper champions better find an answer for Rondo if they hope to prove these critics right. All off-season the media blew up the idea of the "sexy new" Big 3 in Miami as opposed to the "aging" Big 3 in Boston, when really all eyes should have been on number 9 all along. He proved last season deep into the playoffs that this is his team (Rondo and the Big 3 has a nice ring to it) and continues to prove it by making plays on the court and leading his team to a 7-2 start.
