Rondo doesn't go to the line enough for this to be a real issue. Last year he hit about 2/3 free throws a game. It's tough shooting a high percentage if you don't go to the line a lot. If he goes to the line for 3 free throws a game, and is hitting 2, that's fine with me. If he was going to the line 10 times a game, and he was shooting poorly, then it would be an issue.
Interesting point and I wonder if maybe overlooked from time to time. TP.
This is incorrect, he's our PG. We need him to handle the ball at the end of close games. If he can't make free throws we'll have to have Paul do all the late ball handling. That's not what worrks best for the team, Rondo needs to have the ball, otherwise teams will just double off him like Orlando did.
Pierce will have it more than not so I agree with the overall premise although I like for him to get it around 70% this year.
