He has matured a lot.

Meh.

He's always been this way. He speaks his mind and he's always been a stand up guy.

He attended a lot of home games after his ACL injury.

Love him or hate him. Don't think there's an in between.

If I remember correctly, when the Spurs drafted George Hill the question wasn't "Where's Tony Parker going."
George Hill was the 26th pick in the draft and Tony Parker wasn't constantly in trade rumors.
2025 Historical Draft - Cleveland Cavaliers - 1st pick

Starters - Luka, JB, Lebron, Wemby, Shaq
Rotation - D. Daniels, Mitchell, G. Wallace, Melo, Noah
Deep Bench - Korver, Turner

“No. That’s fine,” Rondo said, adding, “I don’t have too many feelings involved in this business. I’ve played my heart out for the game, but business is business. I can be here today, gone tomorrow.

wow he is so optimistic. Gone tomorrow btw doesn't only mean Ainge trading him

Well that is the reality of the business, no? He watched it happen to Perk, he watched it happen to KG and Paul. What would you have liked him to say? He's already said he'd like to stay in Boston longterm and win. He's said he has faith in Ainge. He complimented Marcus. Would a public tantrum have been more to your liking?

I certainly hope he doesn't play defense like Rondo.

there are those who constantly bash on Rondo for no reason...they are the super anti-Rondos...no matter what he does, they want him traded or calls him overrated
