WALTHAM -- You figured Rajon Rondo wouldn’t return from his two-game suspension contrite or apologetic, and he didn’t. Speaking Tuesday for the first time since the punishment for fighting with Brooklyn’s Kris Humphries, Rondo offered little remorse.

“I wanted to be out there with my teammates but obviously a two-game suspension, like I said I was glued in front of the TV,” said Rondo, who told reporters he went to Mexico during the break. “Hopefully I don’t feel too winded tomorrow. I think I’ve been off for about a week now. We’ll see tomorrow.”
