Welcome to the Garden, where the Boston Celtics (3-0) will take on the New Orleans Hornets (1-1) at 6 p.m.

The Celtics are on the court right now going through a team walkthrough, which means no media access at the moment. Rajon Rondo was obviously with the team on the court as they prepared for the Hornets, which means that, should Rondo's agent be in discussions with the team right now about a potential extension, the point guard is not with him. No word from here on the progress of those potential talks, but we'll update you if and when any information becomes available.

Kind of a weird start time for a Celtics game, but with no Patriots today, the crowd should be here and undistracted by the out-of-town scoreboard. Except for those hardy folks at the Revolution's playoff game with the Chicago Fire.

The court should be opening up soon, and the locker rooms will open after that. Back with more substantive updates in a bit.
