There are about 270,000 seconds left until the Celtics tip off against the Lakers on Friday.
There may also be about 270,000 seconds until Rajon Rondo makes his long-awaited return from the torn left ACL he suffered on Jan. 25, 2013.
Brad Stevens gave the strongest hint at a Friday return after he was asked if it’s safe to say that he’s planning on Rondo being in the lineup against the Lakers. Stevens responded by saying, “I’m not preparing for anything but tomorrow, but yeah, I would think that there’s a chance that he’s back Friday.”
