Nobody cares if he's making jumpshots, we care about his mentalty and body langugage and effort on both ends. We know that he is capable of producing trpl-dbl numbers and time he want's to.
What bothers me is his careless cocky look he has ever since Perk shiped out. Get over it
Rondo has been awful and not the same since the Perk trade, doubt many agree but it's pretty clear.
I've noticed a lot tonight, Rondo frontrimmed almost all of his jumpers this game - typically a sign of tired legs/feet. There was a few shots he contested where he got no lift all. I don't think it's purely physical, but I wonder. People keep looking for the one reason why he's slumping, but the truth is there seems to be a few things coming down for him right now:
1.) Mental - he could be bummed his best friend got traded. Idk, I'm not in the man's head but a lot fans seem to think this is the case.
2.) Physical - he's played an awful lot of minutes this season, and on bad feet at that. They haven't mentioned his plantar fascitis lately, but that doesn't mean it's not still bothersome.
3.) Ebbs and Flow of the Game - sometimes, guys just get in funks where they can't get a nice rhythm going. Rondo's not the first player this has happened too, and won't be the last. Unfortunate, but true.
