Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo said Wednesday he was upset after a non-call on Lakers forward Ron Artest during Tuesday night's Game 6.

Rondo took an elbow from Artest in the third quarter, which led to a gash on his chin.

"Just a little cut, a little gash," said Rondo, who was then asked how many stitches were needed to close the gash. "Seventeen. Seventeen. No foul; just one of the many, many missed fouls."

The Celtics confirmed on Wednesday night that Rondo only needed four stitches to close the cut.

"I don't think it was intentional, but it was definitely a foul, one of the fouls that wasn't called," Rondo said after Tuesday's game. "But that's how it goes. You have to still continue to play the game. It didn't affect the way I tried to play. I didn't play much more after. The game was over obviously."
