Rajon Rondo is a bad [dude]......Shut yo mouth!

[LarBrd33]

He's been ridiculous in these playoffs.  I'm enjoying every second of it.  His jumper definitely has improved (although I don't think he hit any tonight, did he?) ... He's getting a lot of much-deserved credit for our success right now.  He's playing like one of the best point guards in the league.

Love Rondo to bits!

He hit at least two jumpers tonight.

Rage on!

Love this kid, and I've been unwavering with that sentiment since his college days.

Talk about a bargain contract ... resigning will be a different deal next time, Danny.

So glad he's ours.

Here are his post season stats:

MPG   FG%  3P%  FT%  REB  AST   BLK   STL   PF   TO    PPG
42.3 .473 .304 .737  6.9  11.8  0.1   2.6   1.9  3.7   17.4


That is just crazy. I know we **** about the moodiness and the shooting but I think that is a case of familiarity breeding contempt.

I would trade this guy for only about 5 or 6 guys in the league tops. Chris Paul would not be one of them. His bone on bone knee is going to start to show issues sooner rather than later. In fact other than Derrick Rose I can not think of a PG I would take over him now. With Derrick looking at a massive rehab I would pause on that one as well.

He simply is the most unique player in the league, he is like the Dennis Rodman of point guards. Think about it for a second and the comparison makes sense. He is the only player in league who can score 10 points in a game and still control the outcome.

Just think, he will only be 27 around next years All-Star break.....

Besides him almost averaging a triple double in the playoffs, the bold is what has me more happy. Is he finally getting it together with the FT's? I don't know, but I love knowing he is hitting his FT's now.
 I also have to give him props for picking it up and playing great. I think he's starting to turn the corner.

If we can get somebody 6'5" or better who can really get out and finish on the break with Rondo it will be re-dunk-u-lus. I have been spending far too much time looking for a potential free agent or trade target who is a lane filling finisher. Any suggestions?

[ejk3489]

Outside of Pierce, he is far and away my favorite player on the Celtics and probably ever (was too young to appreaciate Bird, ect.)...easily the most unique/special player I've ever watched

I thought that player would be Jeff Green, but they never really developed much chemistry that year.  Too bad... cuz Jeff Green is a big dude, quick as heck and definitely has the ability to throw it down.

We need someone big who can finish too. We have Sean Williams and Jajuan and draft picks, all which can potentially be Rondo's mates.

My favorite part of his game is his basketball IQ.  It is off the charts and so fun to watch.  I just bought a Rondo shirt before the game last night.

[Chief]

For two games now, he has been on the floor with Lebron and Wade and has looked, by far, the best of tHe bunch.

[SHAQATTACK]

I like Rondos game.  He is young kid /old school basketball. He reminds me of the tuffness of Stockton and Issiah THomas , and JAson Kidd.  He has huge basketball IQ and understands floor control.
Too bad alot of the time he has to "detune" his offense to low energy level of the older Celtics.  This where we miss Green , Bradley and Wilcox. 

When Rondo is on his game , he is the most entertaining player in the NBA. 

Props to Rondo on his last two games.

He'll need to be this good EVERYGAME for the Celtics to advance or stay in the series.

  As Brilliant as Rondo was in game 2, he was equally brilliant in game 3.  He completely controlled the tempo of the game.  He got the ball to the right guy and called the right plays all game long.  He maintained his aggressiveness throughout.

  I honestly believe Rondo's jump shot issue's are completely a confidence thing.  If he has finally gotten over the hump on that he will prove to be almost unguardable.

  I hope we will look back on this series, this playoff run as the moment when Rajon Rondo took that next step from being an All-Star to being a Superstar.
