Lebron James has his best offensive game (35 points and 5 assists). But Rajon Rondo has counter Lebron's performance with his own 20 points, 13 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks. Not known for his shooting touch, Rondo makes consecutive 3 pointers in the second.
Critics have been over Doc Rivers' bench substitution in Game 4, in favouring Sam Cassell and Glen Davis instead of Eddie House and Leon Powe. Doc continues the same rotation in Game 5, but sticking with Rondo more instead of Cassell. Glen Davis' energy has also given the C's a lift.
