Celtics: Now 4-0 without their assist whoring point guard

[racm]

worst is that he cannot hit FTs too

I remember when Tony's FT form was horrendous, now he's having a career year at the stripe

Maybe that's why Rondo dislikes driving to the hoop.

Thats rare.
I must say that I like Rondo (not looking at the stats or anything). I just like the way he plays, his skill.

Yes and this is something that is driving me crazy as a Celts fan. This team is all about dedication and hard work. I cannot believe that a talented guard like him is not capable to spend a freaking summer to improve his FT shooting. There is not a lot of bad FT shooters guards in the league: wade when he is coasting during RS, Iguodala...and Rondo...umbeavable.

to me KG is still the most valuable player on that team. I think their defense would become putrid without him.

Yeah, team goes from allowing 101.1 points per 100 possessions when he is on the court to 109.9 when he is on the bench so far this year.

boston simply is a better team that they showed until now. the rondo after the ejection however was a disgrace to himself in the first place.

[AussieFanKurt]

Celts are 25-13 without him...

Rajon Rondo is an absolute beast in the Playoffs.

Say what you want about him during the regular season, there is no other point guard I'd want on my team in Playoffs other than Rondo.

DUNCANownsKOBE, your theories about point guards are so good that you should write a book about it.

Sad but true. I always liked watching point guards more than any other position, but DoKs theories have made me jaded about their impact.

The main problem is that a team having to rely on a PG to do the majority of the scoring and playmaking typically exhausts said player. Also, a point guard is usually the smallest player on the floor and just doesn't have the same kind of overall impact on the game as a big or even a wing. They don't draw the same kind of double teams as bigs and the best wings, nor can they really impact the game defensively. Point guards should complement the offense rather than be the center of it.

I like how the starting lineup combined for 26 points.
