*Rajon Rondo’s final four assists of Sunday’s game were on baskets by Kevin Garnett, who now is tied as the leader of field goals made on Rondo assists during Rondo’s current assist streak.
–T-1st: Garnett 116
–T-1st: Pierce 116

*Happy 30th birthday to Leandro Barbosa. What a fantastic Twitter handle he has: @TheBlur_Barbosa. He won the Sixth Man of the Year Award for the 2006-07 season as a member of the Phoenix Suns. Barbosa is now providing some much-needed bench scoring for the Celtics in 2012-13.
–On Sunday, Barbosa scored in double-digits for the 4th time this season.
–Before the Orlando game, the last time Barbosa had scored at least 10 points was the Brooklyn game on November 15.
–The Celtics have won the last 2 games in which Barbosa has come off the bench to score double-digit points.

*The Celtics remain 1 of 3 NBA teams yet to lose a game this season in which they have had a halftime lead.
–Celtics are 5-0 after leading at the half.
–The 76ers have the most halftime leads this season without a loss (6). The Bobcats are the other team (3-0 with a halftime lead).

*Milestone Watch:

Chris Wilcox is 1 defensive rebound away from 2,000 for his career–

–All-Time Offensive Rebounds–
22. Elton Brand 3,067
23. Shawn Kemp 3,026
24. Kevin Garnett 3,025            (Garnett needs 2 to move into 23rd place)
