Celtics blow big lead, fall 129-128 on buzzer-beater from Rajon Rondo

The Boston Celtics, after a week filled with trade rumors, speculation, and expectations, lost 129-128 on a buzzer-beater by old friend Rajon Rondo. After leading by as many as 18 points early in the game, this loss is a tough one to swallow. The loss snaps a 5-game winning streak and puts a damper on what has been a great stretch of basketball.

With the distractions of trade deadline week in the rear view mirror, it was time to roll out the ball and play some basketball again.
