doc: "ray wanted the ball more, and wanted more pick+roll plays for him"

He is the most overated player in the League. There is a reason he has little trade value.

This is such an over generalized statement.  Overrated as compared to what?  I mean he was being dangled in a trade for CP3 last off season.  So that isn't very much trade value?  The coach and the whole team says he is the teams best player.  what more do you want?

Sorry shooting and especially shooting free throws is a necessary skill for a point guard. Its not some magical handicap.Its all practice. He doesnt feel he needs to get better ala Shaq.

Necessary skills, indeed.  But the continued assertion that Rondo doesn't possess them is a myth.

According to Rondo's NBA.COM career stats page for playoff ball Rondo:

Ranks #12 in the NBA in Field-Goal Percentage (0.468)

Ranks #45 in the NBA in Free-Throw Percentage (0.696)
 

12th and 45th out of 192 on the playoff rosters may not be great, but it isn't awful by any means.

Check your facts
No. Rondos career free throw % is .619. and his 3pt shooting is .241. His turnovers totals have climbed every year he has been in the league. Last year 3.64 turnovers a game.

  His assist totals have also climbed every year he's been in the league. The fact that he handles the ball a lot and makes many passes has (shockingly) an effect on how many turnovers he has. Rest assured, he has one of the best assist/turnover ratios in the league, just like he normally does.
