[B]Boston Celtics (http://www.cbssports.com/nba/teams/page/BOS) point guard Rajon Rondo (http://www.cbssports.com/nba/players/playerpage/1113178): I'm not sure Rondo actually said anything during his media interview, as he had this same look on his face the entire time I watched him, even when the questions were in English.

Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh on taking a break this weekend from the fierce rivalry with the Boston Celtics: "You don’t want to be on edge all the time,” Bosh said. “You want to have time to relax. You don’t want to feel like you’re in competition with somebody every time you see them, especially when it’s supposed to be a break."

Boston Celtics guard Ray Allen (http://www.cbssports.com/nba/players/playerpage/6457) on entering the three-point competition against teammate Paul Pierce (http://www.cbssports.com/nba/players/playerpage/20626): “If you ask Paul, he’ll tell you that I won it was 10 years ago and everything’s changed,’’ said Allen. “(He’ll say that) I’m the dinosaur in the game, so I don’t stand a chance. I don’t know the formula now because he won last year. It’s just shooting. The formula is to settle in during the week and make sure you’re not too tired or overwhelmed or exhausted so when you get to that, your body is in a good place.’’ As quoted by PatriotLedger.com (http://www.patriotledger.com/sports/pros/x410098619/Celtics-Allen-and-Pierce-square-off-in-3-point-contest).

Orlando Magic (http://www.cbssports.com/nba/teams/page/ORL) Center Dwight Howard (http://www.cbssports.com/nba/players/playerpage/498287) on what he would do during a lockout: "“I’ll be a pizza delivery man,” he said. “I think I’d be good at that job. Just call me and I’ll bring the pizzas to your house. Or the pool guy. Most people like pool guys.” As quoted by the L.A.

San Antonio Spurs (http://www.cbssports.com/nba/teams/page/SA) power forward Tim Duncan (http://www.cbssports.com/nba/players/playerpage/6552) on his disappointment that his teammate Tony Parker (http://www.cbssports.com/nba/players/playerpage/240304) was left off the All-Star team: "I wish Tony could be here. He deserves to be here, he’s had an excellent year so far. I think if he can grow a couple of inches the next couple of days, I’d trade [spots] with him."
