One of my favorite Rondo passes SAC vs OKC

So I previously posted that my roommate believed D'Angelo Russell could whip up a pass like this, but I highly disagree. This is a very complicated and hard pass, plus rebound to perform off the bat.

When you get a pass that nice, you also got to be able to finish.

What do you guys think? Could D'Angelo Russell even make a pass as good as that?

Thanks for posting.  Hadn't seen it.  Great pass for sure.

Speaking of this, from my today's Twitter feed:

Jared Sullinger at practice asking people if they saw Rondo's absurd assist last night.

Idk what to say in terms of 'can D'Angelo Russell make such pass'. I mean he's a rookie, we don't even know yet what he's capable to do as a point guard in a future.. I guess will see.

If only such pass could win a game alone, what would be even more great (I'm saying so in terms what now pretty much many folks saying what Rondo's game is just an empty all-around-stat).. but despite everything I'm happy to see what you identified this incredible play by Rondo and started a nice thread here with mention to his incredible skills

I still think Rondo's spin-move-jumping-in-the-air-behind-the-back-pass to Ray-Ray in Golden State was his best assist ever. Or his assist to Ray-Ray over his shoulder against Denver at home is another candidate.

That really is an amazing pass.  Aren't many guys who can make that pass in the last few decades much less in current nba.  Right into sweet spot for shooter.  Pass wasn't low etc.  amazing court vision
