You guys will remember this...Rondo returned to the Celtics, I think it was Brad's first year coaching. Rondo was not cheerful.
Celtics were tanking. They went on a west coast trip and were scheduled to play the Kings, I think.
Rondo "had to go celebrate his birthday with family in California" and didn't dress for the game.
My point with this retro talk is this.
If Garnett was still on the team would Rondo have "skipped a game?"
And the climax of this all important post...
Just who in heck is the "sheriff" on this Celtic's team?
Right now, TV commentator Kendrick Perkins is the only "person" calling anyone out.
The issue with all of this is the team is playing badly, thus we're all looking for a scapegoat and the "new guy who likes to party" is a perfect choice.
