I did see him play the other day and he did look better than last year when I think the pressure of a contract year got into his head. Went to the basket more. I'd be surprised if he gets back to his pre-injury status, but I wish him luck regardless.

Good read, thanks for sharing.

"I might be out of the league if I didn't have a guy like K.G. to show me the ropes and a coach like Doc Rivers," Rondo said. "I feel like I owe it to [Cousins] to help him as much as possible."

Mature, humble statement from Rondo. Nice to read.

Chuck from Red's Army pointed this out on Twitter.  Did this actually happen?

But after Rondo turned down a five-year extension estimated to pay close to $70 million in hopes of landing a maximum contract later, he was traded to the Dallas Mavericks on Dec. 18.

So could probably label this as Rondo declares, do what I say not what I do to Cousins.
