I've seen him do it like 7 games in a row. There's at least one play where Rondo drives in, beats his man, has a completely open lane... and tosses it away (usually it's a turnover) to which the announcer goes, "oh Rondo had a layup... he should have taken it".I don't know if that has anything to do with his assist streak... but if it is, hopefully that puts an end to his "bonehead play of the game" streak. Did you see him do it in the 16 assist/1 turnover game? Because I'm guessing that it was hyperbole. A lot of his "open layups start out open when he's driving but end up with a big ready to challenge the shot.

But he is driving me INSANE lately with these crazy passes that lead to turnovers when he is at the basket with a layup. He did it again last night in crunch time, and got called for a travel when he couldn't pass it off.
