Looks are Important

Just throwing this out there, but Rondo does look a lot bigger! Added bonus, he may have stolen the weight from Baby.

[Donoghus]

Wow, he does look noticably bigger. 

For the way, he plays he needs the added bulk.  Playing with fearless abandon will only get you so many healthy years in this league when you weigh 160 lbs.  Hopefully the speed is still there(and I'm assuming its close to the same).

Pierce's arms look noticably more defined.

Baby looks like he lost a lot of weight.

Rondo looks bigger, but he is still (and likely always will be) pretty thin

[ChampKind]

Scal looks good.  Just look at those handles.  I think we found our backup PG.

[BrickJames]

Rondo's legs still look skinny as all heck.

He looks like one of those tools I hated in HS/college that drank protein shakes and did bench presses, push ups, and bicep curls costantly.

As a guard, lower body strength is just as important than upper body, if not more so.  Look at your two premier 'big' guards - Billups and Kidd - they are built like a house...strong foundation.

Even your other defensive stalwart guards - GP and Eric Snow... strong legs.

Rondo will continue to get beat up until he bulks up from the waist down.

marquis daniels is intimidating.
as hell.

If mikki was predator, he's predator 2.0

Huh huh.  You said he needs to bulk up from the waist down.  Huh huh.

I didn't really see the Rondo change, but Baby did look at lot thinner, but photographers can do amazing things these days.

The funniest is Scala trying to dribble. Stop that Scala

TP for you sir!

And Sheed looks like he's growing it out. Love it!

Baby still looks obese to me.

Rondo looks bigger, but it may be the lighting.

Okay, I know you really have never cared for Baby, but I don't think he looks anywhere near obese. His face is noticeably thinner and there is definitely better definition in his shoulders and arms.

Actual proof of his losing weight can be seen in his left chest and shoulder area. You can actually see the stretch marks there from his stretched skin caused by being much, much bigger. I think he looks a good 60-70 pounds lighter than when he went to the Final Four at LSU.

Not sure I like Rondos added arm strength. If it helps him finish that is one thing; however I was also questioning the added upper body strength in terms of strain of the knees and his ongoing struggle with ankle problems. Agree, he needs a stronger base.

I'm kind of on the fence with Sheed's new look. I think he needs a trim.

i felt the same way...i am actually really pumped to see what he can bring to your team...i think out second unit will have an identity this season....last season goods teams caught up as soon the second unit came in..
