The Chicago Bulls are going to have to keep finding a way to make due without the services of Rajon Rondo.

The rejuvenated Bulls point guard missed Game 3 of the Bulls' first-round series vs. the Boston Celtics with a fractured thumb, and that's just the beginning of his absence, according to Rondo.

Rondo added that he couldn't even pick up a fork with his injured hand.

This is increasingly bad news for the Bulls, who dropped their first game of the series tonight at home. After Rondo's 14 assists led Chicago to a win in Game 2, the Bulls totaled just 14 assists as a team in Game 3.

Rondo's injury may be just the thing the Celtics need to crawl back in this series as the Bulls are left scrambling and trying to find a solution.
