Remember when Rajon Rondo said the team was tired, I think he was mostly speaking for himself. Because since he uttered those words, he really hasn't been tearing it up on the offensive end. Yes, he did post 10 dimes against Atlanta, but his field goal percentage over the last four games is 20%, an almost 35 point drop from his season average before he told everyone he was pooped.

You wouldn't expect fatigue from the lack of an offseason to get to the young guys first. On the other hand, the young guys are not only young, they are inexperienced, and they'll need to figure out ways to fight through times like these.
