SRT Spidey Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 I was just thinking about how much [expletive] people were talking about Rondo last season, hes overated, hes only good becuase of the team hes on, hell never be an allstar..etc. So jw..what are your guys thoughts on him now? Rondo is the best PG in the east Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I was actually defending him in the offseason. Definitely a top 5 PG. Nash/Deron/Paul > him still, but not by too much. He still needs a consistent jumper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaaBoTownSox Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 He was robbed of a starting role in the All Star Game thanks to the idiots who voted AI over him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Check my Stats Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 He is the best PG in the East but that is not saying much. He still has of holes in his game, and the Celtics definitely USED to hide some of his flaws. He is obviously better now than 2 years ago, but 2 years ago he was really overrated. I still don't think you can be successful in the future when your PG can't shoot, especially with how much the pick and roll is used these days, unless of course you have 3 HOFers to alleviate the pressure offensively and help spread the floor for you. His quickness helps though, I mean you can sag off and the kid can still get by you, he is best suited in a role where he is not featured or relied on to score IMO, and when you are paying a specialist (defensively mostly) like that 10 million, I just don't know if I can consider him an 'all-star', at least perennially yet. I could be wrong though, I mean 15 and 10 are pretty sexy numbers, I am just curious/anxious to see what he does once the big 3 are gone. Also your PG not shooting 60% from the line is pathetic, the PG is supposed to be the closer and the guy nailing down FT's at the end of the game for you.... you can't even have him bring the ball up because if he gets fouled he will probably split them. Would be scary to think how good this kid could be if he developed a solid jumper, not even a great one, just solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
