Wow he made his free throws! Hey, stick completely ruins our offense late in games.

Rondo has 30 points, 10 rebounds and 15 assists tonight. **** that guy!

Good for him. Doesn't change much. He is a good player. There is no doubting that. But he isn't that good and the team would be much better with a 5th shooter who could run the point.

Rondo went off today. 

31/15/10/2

I put late game execution failures on Doc's shoulders. He seriously got outcoached by Thibs.

[vinnie]

What pos said. If good Rondo played every night, life with the Celts would be so much easier.

[Birdmanbr]

Why is our late game execution so dang bad?!!?

It's simple. Rajon Rondo can't shoot.

Rajon Rondo made Pierce turn the ball over. Fact.

Only the oblivious ignore the fact that Rondo's inability to shoot or consistently attack the basket late completely ruins our offense.

It is 4 on 5 EVERY game because teams know there is no reason to cover him. Pierce is getting double teamed cause Rondo, which in turn forced the turnover so you are right Rondo's inability to shoot made Pierce turn the ball over.

yes, sure: if the guy is capable of delivering 32 pts and 15 rebs, he is responsible when our offense has bad nights...

[slamtheking]

I'm going to assume this one is in the bag now and start with the TP tradition I've missed out on for the past few games.

Rondo with a triple double.  Imagine how good we'd be if Good Rondo played every night?

Idk, Rondo played great all game and the C's are still in a tight one against a Bulls team missing their best player.

The fact Rondo has to play this way is telling.

[rondohondo]

It's simply amazing to me how Rondo can put up 30/15/10 against one of the best defenses in the league and people still complain about him.

with no rose and barely pulled out the game , clutch free throws today by Rondo though, first time I have ever seen that !

[nickagneta]

HAHAHAHAHA this team is terrible.

We are playing 4 on 5 late in every game. That is why Rondo needs to go.

Yup...guy that goes for 31 pts, 15 asts and 10 rebs, while shooting 50% from the line and 75% from the line gotta go. Yup that makes sense.

Rondo with a triple double.  Imagine how good we'd be if Good Rondo played every night?

as long as it's against CJ Watson at home we're fine

[green7]

rondo did what i wanted him to do drive drive run run!

[Atzar]

What would you rather have?  Good Rondo playing like this 33-50% of the time (Bad Rondo otherwise)?  Or a point guard who would give us 75% of what Good Rondo gives us, but give us that kind of play 80-90% of the time?

Serious question.  I'm not sure what the answer is.

Well, give that 75% of this would be 24/11/7, I'll take the 75% all the time - and the MVP award that follows.

All I have to say is:

I'm laughing at all you Rondo haters.  Blaming him for this.  How about the rest of the vets, that instead of being calm under pressure panic like rookies.

Oh, nice way to sink those FT's Rondo.  Shut them haters up!

Rondo has been great in this game.  I just wish he'd show this kind of aggressive, active play every game.  That's honestly all that stands between him and stardom -- forget about the jumpshot.

I hope you didn't think I meant you.  I've generally found the criticism you do have for Rondo to be fair.

It's the "Rondo sucks, trade him" after one bad play or game, garbage that irritates me.

[jarufu]

That'll do Rondo, that'll do
