Bounced Back

After losing three consecutive games on our West Coast trip, we bounced back and have won five in a row. You all know I didn't get what I wanted for my bday, but the five in a row made up for it. In the game against the Bobcats, I had a career high 16 assists. I was pretty excited about that. As a team, we're working hard-playing team ball. Over the past weekend I've had some family and friends in town. They came up from Louisville to visit. It was nice to see everyone. We went to the mall and dinner while they were here, and they got to catch a few games. I like to be around family, so having everyone up here was coo. I'm up early today. It's gonna be a busy one for me. I have a couple of things to do this morning, and this afternoon I have a little party to go to. I work with this program that helps less fortunate kids in Boston, and today I'm having a little party for them. I love the kids, and I'm really excited about tonight. We have Detroit Wednesday. That is going to be a good match up. I know all the fans are looking forward to that game. Detroit is tough, so we're going to have to be ready. I will just be preparing for the game over the next few days. I'll be back to let you know how things go. I'll holla!

I wanna hear about your first practice with Cassell - as in how hard will you hit him upside the head in return for that foul?

give Sam our love, we look forward to seeing him do the big balls dance

Congrats on your first trip-dub, coming soon... keep crashing the boards! Look forward to seeing you take on Chauncey this week and CP at the end of the month. Blessings as you prepare for battle.

I hope Sam is a great mentor and I'll be glad to see him in green, but you are the man and don't forget it!

You might want to remind the coaching staff how you tortured Chauncey in the first quarter of the first match up in Boston this year. You really took it to him, and if they allow you to set up on the right side of the floor an blow by Billups, you can put him on the bench with fouls. You abused Chauncey real bad that quarter, but unfortunately Doc didn't go back to you for the rest of the game.
Don't be reticent to do your thing Wednesday night. As long as you stay away from the cheap foul, you should be able to D up the wily but slowing Billups. Good luck.

Good Luck against the Piston's and don't give Billups any time to breathe. Keep going at him because you and i both know he can't stay with you. Keep up the good play man.

Rajon, you guys play in Memphis on Sat and Philly on Mon. Is there any chance we can get you to Rupp on Sunday for Senior Day against UF? It would mean so much to the fans and to the team. After losing PPat to injury we could use all the support we can get. Like I said before, just your presense alone would get Rupp freakin crazy! If your schedule will permit it we're asking that you give it some serious thought. Peace, bro. - Matt

  I think I'm going to be able to make that game...no promises yet though. We will just see.

    That would mean a lot to Joe and Ramel. This would have been your senior day as well. Maybe you can form the "Y" in Kentucky or something. It would be very fitting.

Thanks for putting up points and showing you are a force on the team. BTW - I used to be able to get boxed VIP seats for $100/pp. Not any more.

nice game tonight Rajon. I thought you did a great job forcing the issue and providing energy throughout. Maybe would have been nice to have Cassell to give you a breather after that dunk! Keep it up. Go C's.

Rondo,
U the man. You might have more fans in KY than in Boston, which means the whole state is behind you not that you don't have a lot of Boston fans. We are so glad to see you playing well and more so giving back to the community.
Your canning the 3 now. Did Sparks give you some tips? I hope you can make it back for Sr. day. We need the win to ensure that we are in the Tourney, so we need all the help we can generate.
Congrats for doing it the right way- hard work and not neglecting your social responsibility.

It's funny, because I used to hate the Celtics until you went there. I am a huge Kentucky fan and now a Huge Celtics fan! We are all proud of you down here in the Bluegras. Hope to see you Sunday!

What's up Rajon? This is Ryan. I graduated from UK in December. I know people have already asked you about this, but it would be insane if you could make it to the game tomorrow. You know how loud it can get in Rupp, so just think how loud it would be if you came out at halftime while we're beating Florida. We definitely could use the support because this game is HUGE! We're all hoping you can make it, but if not, no hard feelings. Good luck in the playoffs. I'm a huge Boston fan!
