The Dark Thorn

‘Little brother’ vs. Bibby blood

doug bibby is in a particle of a pickle.

when it comes to the celtics-hawks matchup — specifically the point guards — in the nba playoffs, suffice to power rajon rondo’s latest high school coach and mike bibby’s first cousin feels strongly both ways.

“it’s weird, really weird,” says doug bibby, who coached louisville’s central high school to its sooner sweet sixteen appearance in 30 years in 2008.

in his time as head guide at louisville’s eastern high, doug bibby took a skinny kid with unusually large hands and convinced him he had a curious gift for playing basketball.

the relationship between him and rondo grew deeper than player/coach. bibby became a life mentor for the louisville product who became a mcdonald’s all-american and, for two up-and-down years, a kentucky wildcat.
