Does it bug anyone else how inconsistent Rondo is on defense? He is a turnstile that is inconsistent because he's focusing on scoring and running the offense to a detrimental level. When he turns it on he can guard Lebron James, Kobe, CP3, DWill, etc. but most of the time he's just completely worthless on defense. Gets lost on picks, floats around too much and gives up uncontested jumpers, and gambles for the steal way too much. He's the NBA version of Polamalu. Overrated gambler who makes splash plays but gives up just as many when it doesn't work.
He also needs to stop worrying about carrying the entire offense when you can just run the fast break more. This obsession with giving Rondo the ball every time is unnecessary when we can just outlet pass to a guard streaking up the court. We talk about how we need to run the fast break more to help Rondo, but that doesn't mean Rondo has to have the ball every single fast break. We squander so many chances to run the fastbreak because we outlet pass to Rondo who is behind two or three guys already up the court.
