I am not saying Rondo CAN'T change. I am not saying Rondo Won'T change. Because frankly, I really have no idea.
But here is the important question. If Rondo DID change, then what kind of value would he bring to the team. Off thd ball, he isn't really very much help at all to the team. Guys will double off of him and his presence will probably hurt the offense more than it helps.
So basically, we either committ to Rondo and let him be Rondo or we don't.
Jackie Mac said on comcast last night that the example Danny gave her about how rondo's game can change is.....
Whenever a wing player , or someone who can handle the ball(Lee,Terry,Green)would get a rebound or a steal , they would immediately look for Rondo and wait to give it to him . Now with Rondo out those guys are just grabbing the ball and starting the break themselves .
According to Jackie, Danny wants that sort of thing to continue when Rondo gets back. He wants Rondo to be busting it down the court even without the ball in his hand to put more pressure on defenses , and allowing himself to get to better spots on the floor to make plays when the ball gets to him.
