We have come up with nicknames for Perk now it is Rondo's turn. Here is a few I come up woth lately that may or may not stick with us.

My personal favorite is: Rondo "the 2000's Hondo"

Others are: Double R "RR" because he is our Rolls Royce or "Rolls Royce Rondo"
Also I think it would be cool how Havlicek use "Hondo" which didnt fit his name & it sounded like Rondo. To in turn flip the script & call Rondo "Ravlicek" or something like that to reward him for all the many tools Rondo has just like the original Hondo possessed! Maybe im crazy, but I thought that was a cool idea.

And lastly for his ability to move so fluidly & his passion for skating. Im sure he would love Rajon "Skates on" Rondo. Because he always has defenders falling like if they are guarding him with skates on! They say great nicknames are supposed to rhyme so I came up with that one.

I have many more but tell me what you think about those!

I agree that its kinda cool that Hondo is so close to Rondo, but to name Rondo after Havlicek is simply crazy. You can't compare Rondo to the greatest scorer in Celtics history. And this is coming from a huge Rondo fan, he's no doubt my favorite player in the league. That being said, he does not even need a nickname. His name by itself is better than 90% of the nicknames out there.

I always called him "R Squared" or just "Squared".  I was thinking "Ragin' Rajon" too.  I'm gonna spend the rest of this snowy day thinking of more

I was thinking of something last night as I was watching the game.  His name doesn't have to start with an R just because of his unique way, so something a little bit different that I think it's a little more adequate for his game.

The Show

Why?  Because when you have a team with Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen, Rajon Rondo is the one that is "stealing the show".  Those little moves that he makes, it just makes a show out of the whole thing.  What do y'all think?

That might work better for Scals.  He's built for comfort, not for speed.

It's been long enough since Slick Watts played.  How about Slick for Rondo?

Yeah, Rondo is a great nickname.  How can you give a nickname to a guy with two totally unique names already?
