I've always disliked Rondo


when he played well, I liked him. And he played fairly well this year too.


But he's too much of a stat hunter, and would rather force an assist to get a triple double than take the open jumper to cut the lead. thats not what we are going to need as we rebuild.



Rondo is a great PG to have on a competitor, top 3. But for a rebuilding team, he doesn't work.

Trade Paul and KG for 'Dre and Bledsoe, and trade Rondo for Favors+ and the rebuild is on

Good to see Melo and Amare learning how to play off eachother...

And after all that shit they gave Amare about accepting his role as a bench scorer... now thats he's excelling at it, they dont want to say shit... lol

If he played the regular season like he did the playoffs it would be fine.

No, he forces passes because he doesn't trust his jump shot. And he shouldn't.

 

[bosoxlover12]

His jumper has improved a lot. He probably doesn't trust his jumper enough, I'll give you that, but he's clearly going for stats. On defense, he over pursues in hopes for a steal, rather than playing just on ball defense.

But he doesn't. He doesn't show up in meaningless games.


Fucking give him to Miami, he would actually be a perfect fit there

 

[Elite]

Too ball dominant to play for the Heat, no need for a conventional PG here

 

[Pugz]

exactly.

 

[elcheato]

He forces passes because he's really good at them, and he basically just guns for them.

Surprisingly Rondo was shooting 51% on the season from 16 feet to the 3 point line.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Rumor is the Bucks are open to moving Jennings more than ever before. Heard they will collect offers and discuss them over All-Star break, and then decide what to do that weekend.

 

[Pugz]

and he just changed agents. he wants that max deal

 

[dez]

BJ's good as gone, they've been trying to get rid of him since the got Monta, but Milwaukee's too picky they want a top notch deal for him when in the end they'll just end up getting robbed.

And this is the first time of me hearing a player wanting to pass the ball rather then shoot, being described as selfish.. That blew my mind lol

Meh, he's always WIDE open on his jumpers... any other starting PG in the NBA would be shooting 75%+ if they were left that open.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Yeah, defenders constantly go under screens against Rondo.

 

[Mexi]

artest getting suspended is a joke

i cant think of a team

actually, maybe Utah

Jennings for Millsap?

just my first guess
any ideas anyone?

 

[Mexi]

salaries dont even match on the millsap idea

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I want him on the Hornets/Pelicans.
