Saw this thread on RealGM Celtics section, and thought it would be fun to post here and get responses. What are your favorite Rondo moments?

Mine would have to be LeBron James ball fake to Tony Allen for the dunk

I couldn't find it on YouTube, but there's one from his rookie preseason that I've probably posted on CB a half dozen times over the years.  He had a play against the Knicks that first alerted me that he was a unique player.  A guy who absolutely does stuff no one else does.  It was a layup/steal/layup combo that was pretty insane athleticism.

  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
My favorite moment is easily when he got up under LeBron's shirt, absolutely fearless, but also kinda looking like a puppy who just wants to play.

Not just a Rondo moment but I loved the entire sequence. Shame about the series ending though.

Dunk on that Detroid big man, alley-oop in the final second, but most of all: the spin-to-behind-the-back pass out to Ray Allen for three, that was just ridiculously on the numbers. AWESOME. Best pass I've ever seen - ever.

That last video in the original post is exactly why I don't want to see Rondo going anywhere else. I can't think of another player in the NBA who would hustle like that after that kind of injury. Most players wouldn't even go back into the game.

TP to the original poster for this thread.  Man I love these Rondo clips.  Makes us remember why he is so special.

How has nobody mentioned Rondo diving on the floor to steal the ball from Jason Williams?!?!?!?

As sad as I am to see KG and Pierce go. It excites me to know that Rondo will finally be clear cut guy for this franchise. I have no doubts that he will be a fantastic leader and mentor to the younger guys of the Celtics.

It was really a Jeff Green moment on this clip but if you watched Rondo at the corner of the screen (0:03 mark), his little one legged hop  after Jeff Green made the dunk was hilarious and one of my favs. I think he had turned his ankle,but the excitement he showed when Jeff dunked made the dunk even better.

TP for the Rondo to TA ball fake assist, that would probably be my favorite play as well.

Also this dunk over DH (from my avatar):

And this clutch 3-pointer against the 76ers in game 7 of the 2012 playoffs:
