Frank Dell'Apa of the Boston Globe:

Celtics coach Doc Rivers quashed rumors of Kevin Garnett reappearing for Saturday night's game against the Chicago Bulls.

"Sasquatch is going to show up next," Rivers said after the team's morning shootaround. "I swear, somebody was going to spot Kevin on the floor, and Sasquatch."

    Ragin' Rondo is a sad, sad little man. Captain Kirk on the other hand is a class act. Show 'em how we do in da Chi, baby!

    After the lack of action on Ronda, (oops, I meant Rondo) by Stern, it's clear what the NBA and the networks are up to. They wanted the Celtics to make it to a game 7 in hopes that Garnett might pull a Willis Reed and emerge from the shadows and save the day....just think of the ratings. Sad that they are so obvious.

    ya'll haters.
    rondo plays good, hard basketball and he's a villain. this is all playoff basketball-- neither side is innocent because the series is tight and emotions are high. i am not claiming the celtics are clean-- far from it. but at least i can say that both sides are guilty and not just the team i root for.
    because you know, your boys are perfect. please. ben gordon grabbing his crotch in game 4? brad miller throwing gang signs? joakim noah screaming at everyone after every single play? ty thomas pushing EVERYONE at every chance he gets?
    real perfect.
    please.

    striker, shouldnt the nba have suspended rondo leaving the celtics short handed, making KG have to play? and if they really wanted to make it go to a game 7, they woulda called a flagrant 2 on the spot kicking him out of the game, giving the bulls an easier victory. ur logic is backwards

    Haha, wow #13, that was pretty damn good. To bad this isn't a C-a-C, otherwise I'd have to say you'd win hands down.

    To all you anti-Celtic bloggers and so-called Bulls supporters. Better luck next year. We Celtics fans cannot believe the mean nasty unsportsmen-like comments written against us. I for one just laugh because WE ARE THE CURRENT CHAMPIONS and it is to be expected. Joaquin Noah sat on the bench after the Celtics won and did not even get up and be a respectful player. What a little p u s s y. And this one is for the SCS/Sportsfan who took so much time and effort to draw an image of his face gripping in disgust. Question "do you walk around all day like that."
    And let me give you a little curse to think about. Each time you exhibit such hateful mean spirited behavior all it does is show how obsessive you are. Get a life. The champs live on. The Celtics move on in the playoffs, the Red Sox have one of the best records in baseball and the Bruins are playing like champions. My best advise to you is deal with it.
    GO CELTICS!!!
