Another 2 games, another 10 turnovers. When does it end?
I don't know when you'll stop posting about it, that's up to you.

Seriously though Rondo is currently averaging right around the same TO% as last year up .6 TOPG from 3.4 to 4.0. I'm not sure its going to get any lower with the amount of ballhandling Rondo has to do for this team.

its not his fault that Rondo can't play the best b-ball for a PG. Plus, be more 'open-minded' when others post stuff against Rondo*

*that also goes to all those other 'Rondo-Riders' out there in CB
"Rondo riders"...alot of yall on here are Rondo haters. You gotta admit that no matter what he does in a game, you guys will find something to blame him for. Its annoying and redundant and yall need to stop talking about it.

Honestly i am so done with these Rondo arguements. Hes a great player who adds huge things to the Celtics. I know it, the other players on the team know it, and thats it. Thats all that matters.

  • Boston Celtics= Championships, nothing less.
He had turnovers, and a few of these were forced ie:
*Long pass to Bradley up court
*alley oop to JJJ
*drive and kick to vacant top left corner where he thought Ray would be waiting.

But then think about his:
*Driving inside, drawing three opponents, then dishing to JO for an easy dunk, or Wilcox for an easy layup.
*his one man fast break where he turned Conley 3 times and then finished with the left hand.
*His beautiful skip bounce pass to Ray for the open three.


These are just a few off the top of my head.
This team is better with Rondo on both ends of the floor.
He does gamble on defense and offense, but his vision and ability to read the potential play is amazing. The only person with better vision in the league is Nash.

It was his second game back and his wrist is still store.
When people talk about Rondo hurting our offense, I ask them to think back to 2008 and 2010.
His play, particularly in 2010, was what got us to the finals.

And LOL to the critics saying that 'assists are overrated'.
Please look at the league leaders in assists and tell me if there are any average players there.
That's like saying passing is overrated.
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.
