Rajon Rondo Ejected

  • For a second, the Boston Celtics looked capable of orchestrating a masterful comeback from a 17-point deficit in their Game 1 matchup against the Hawks in Atlanta.

  • Rondo bumped referee Marc Davis as part of his outburst, which could earn him further penalty, including possible suspension for Game 2 of this Eastern Conference quarterfinals series.

  • Game over, Hawks win 83-74: Pierce closed things out by missing a wide-open layup. The way these proceedings went, that seemed just about right.

  • Rajon Rondo had 20 points and 10 assists but lost his cool on a loose ball scramble with 41 seconds left that went against the Celtics. He yelled at and bumped official Marc Davis. He faces a potential suspension for Game 2 Tuesday night.

  • Rajon Rondo on the play that resulted in him being ejected from the game: I was upset about the call, and I said something to (Mark Davis). As I was walking I thought he stopped and my momentum carried me into him. I even think I tripped on his foot.
