Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett talk about Rajon Rondo.. Kevin Garnett: This whole transition, man, we came in as strangers and bonded as brothers,And I say that with Glen [Davis], Kendrick [Perkins], Tony Allen, with Eddie House and [James Posey], just a connection with what it is….When Ray left, it was hard for everybody there. We saw Doc leave, that blew us out of the water. It’s kind of like looking up at the wave coming. And now we’re here, so I can only imagine what Do’s going through. Obviously, I reached out to him, told him what I was going to do or whatever. I’m sure he’s dealing with whatever he’s dealing with, obviously he’s trying to get back with (from his ACL injury)….Whatever that whole universe and his world is presenting to him… It’s unfortunate. I had to take away that, what you have established as a brother and as a brotherhood amongst each other, is what you take away from it. Although I’m losing a teammate, I have a friend for life. And that’s how I look at it." Paul Pierce: "I told him this is probably going to be the toughest year of your whole career, mentally and physically. … You have to be a leader now…..You have to go through these times. I’ve been through them. I explained to him how I went through it. I feel like, I’m one of the best players in the league and now… [Rondo is] going to be in that situation for maybe one year or two years, who knows? But you have to be mentally prepared for it, and that’s some of the things we talked about." Hate seeing such a closely knit bond fall apart like that, but we will never forget the Celtics, or the bond Rajon Rondo, Paul Pierce, and Kevin Garnett formed!
