OAKLAND, Calif. -- Rajon Rondo says he hopes to make his season debut before the All-Star break. Boston Celtics coach Brad Stevens says he has never spoken to Rondo or anybody in the organization about a specific return date. This much is clear: Rondos return is inching closer. Rondo, who has been out since tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee last January, told reporters at the teams morning shootaround Friday in San Francisco that he hopes to make his season debut before the break but declined to give a specific date. Bostons last game before the break is Feb. 12. "Its just a feeling," Rondo told reporters. "Ill probably just wake up (one) morning and play." Stevens said before the Celtics played at Golden State on Friday night that the decision for Rondo to return will not be made by him. Instead, the first-year Celtics coach said it will be solely up to team doctors and the point guard. "Its not my call," Stevens said. "Obviously the trainers, No. 1, to be able to clear him to do certain things, to clear him to play games, to clear him to practice. Thats their job, and they do that well. "And its about him feeling ready in a number of ways. I cant lose sleep over things I cant control personally. Im more concerned about him being healthy. I want him to be fully ready to go mentally, emotionally and physically. And when that time is right, well plug him right in." Stevens also stressed hes still not sure when Rondo will return. "We never talked about a specific date," Stevens said. "Its been, Hey, when you feel like youre close, then well talk at that point. But Ive never talked to him about that nor have I heard from our organization that theres been a date thats been targeted." Rondo runs the offence but cant do it from the sideline. The four-time All-Star point guards return has been uncertain since the team announced during a double-overtime win against Miami on Jan. 27, 2013, that he would have season-ending surgery. He had injured his knee two days earlier against Atlanta. Doctors cleared Rondo to participate fully in practice in the middle of December. Theres also the possibility he could play for the Maine Red Claws of the NBA Development League before rejoining the Celtics, who had lost six straight and nine of their last 10 entering Friday nights game at the Warriors.

The No. 11-ranked Raonic put up 18 aces to beat his No. 6-ranked opponent in the final at the Impact Arena in one hour, 17 minutes. It was Raonics fifth tour victory, adding to the three in San Jose from 2011-13 and Chennai in 2012. He also improved his unbeaten record over Berdych to 2-0 after also beating the Czech player in the Cincinnati Masters last year. Berdych had his chances in the match with a set point at 6-5 in the first but Raonic used his big serve to force a weak return before sending a forehand winner to escape. The Canadian then relied on powerful serves to force the tie-break, which he sealed with another booming serve. Raonic managed an early break in the second game to take a 2-0 lead in the second after Berdych netted two successive shots. At 5-3, Raonic produced another ace to set up a championship point before blasting a forehand winner to take the match. "It feels great to win the title," said the 22-year-old from Thornhill., Ont., now 37-17 this season. &quoot;The first set was about finding rhythm.dddddddddddd Once I did I was solid after that," he said. "I knew I had to play slightly more aggressive, not just put the ball in play. I did that and was able to take control, I got some insight into what I needed to do to beat him." Raonics next challenge will be in Tokyo, where he lost the 2012 final to Japans Kei Nishikori. "Ill have to carry this momentum onto Tokyo," he said before flying overnight to the Japanese capital for a Monday arrival. "The only thing Im worrying about is what I need to do in the first match (against Japans Go Soeda). "Im serving well and doing a lot of good things, I want to keep that up and put myself in a position to win more." Raonic said hes been working hard on his game since losing to Rafael Nadal in the Rogers Cup final in Montreal in August. "I maybe wasnt playing my best tennis there but Ive been improving a little at a time," he said. And the payoff for the work came in Bangkok. "Im happy with how I dealt with this whole week, I fought my way through and put the pieces together to win," he said. wholesale jerseys wholesale nfl jerseys china jerseys from china nfl jerseys cheap authentic cheap jerseys ' ' '
