    Because what we really want is a point guard who will set up 25 mid range 2's a game and get credit for 11 assists when 44% of those shots go in.

    Boston fans actually seriously worry that Rondo won't get it together in time like TP did.

    Did you mean the best PG from the last 5 years who can't shoot, has a bad at ude, ran a coach out of town, ran another superstar out of town, tore his ACL, and spent half of last season trying to break the consecutive double digit assist record instead of trying to win games?
    Yeah, that guy.

    If the Spurs were to trade for him (they won't) I would dump them like a psycho girlfriend.

    You obviously don't follow the Celtics.
    And most people who do follow the Celtics love Rondo. He's a compe or who steps his level of play up in big games. The reports of him being a "team cancer" were created because Ray Allen was a baby and couldn't handle coming off the bench. No other teammate has had any big issue with him ever.

    Boston fan loved Manny being Manny, too, until they didn't. I hate Ray Allen, too, but the fact that he's a vagina does NOT preclude Rondo from being a locker room cancer.

    For anyone to knock Rondo's game just hasn't seen enough Celtics games. He is a wizard man, prob the smartest guy on the court in any game.

    I'd love to have him as a spur and i dont think there would be drama because pop would want him to do his thing. You don't think chip could teach him how to shoot?

    Whether hes better than Parker that's debatable.

    Well then what makes him a locker room cancer? Because the Ray Allen story is the ONLY incident people can point to. Find one quote of another teammate (or former teammate) saying anything negative about Rondo, or one story about Rondo having issues with another teammate and then we'll talk.

    To the OP, both Allen and Rivers left Boston b/c of Rondo. Do you think Pop would take any of Rondo's crap. NO!!!!

    And just to answer your question since you made an inquiry, it would be NO!!!!

    You actually believed that story? Doc wanted out because he didn't wanna go through a rebuilding situations. Doc's camp leaked that "fight" story (which may or may not have happened, and definitely wasn't a big deal. Disagreements happens on most successful teams) to try to soften the blow before bailing. That story was completely laughable and had very little detail in it, that could've happened years ago for all we know.

    I don't think Rondo was the sole reason. But Rondo can be a headcase. That incident where he went right up and bumped ref saids alot about his character. I am sure Rivers was in his face over those antics he displayed throughout the course of the past few seasons and I believe they probably did have some heated exchanges. Do you think Pop would have been in Rondo's face over some of those incidents.

    Rondo is an extremely talented PG but his character doesn't fit the Spurs mold.

    plays defense - check
    plays team ball - check
    loves to pass - check
    heart of a champion - check

    looks like Rondo fits the Spurs mold perfectly...

    Is confrontational with his coach - uncheck.

    That is exactly what got SJax kicked off the team and quite honestly you can tell that is the one thing Pop can't stand.

    Rondo is not in any way confrontational with his coach. Don't believe the rumors. He is a great player. A passionate one who wants to win. With that said, TP3 and Rondo are about the same level. Rondo's younger yeah, but TP3 knows the system better and there really is no point in change when it doesn't bring that much improvement.

    Tony has 2 years to which he'll make 25 mil after that my guess is he will leave as a FA at the age of 33. Maybe the Spurs will trade him in the last year of his deal something that would be beneficial to both sides..

    I really love Rajon Rondo too

    I agree with you
    My opinion he is the only elite pg able to manage the organization of Spurs
    Instead of Chris Paul or D-Will ...
    But

    Their talent is equivalent and their qualities / defects are compensated

    And

    Rondo makes a lot of turnover (because he loves to pass maybe)
    The Spurs did not really need his rebounds
    It interacts not with others in life (I hope he is at least nice to the fans of Boston)
    It also has a bad temper and is really not sociable
    In a team with a small family minded liked Spurs, I hope not really his arrival

    I agree we have to do something to improve our ball movement. It's usually missing when we need it most. In games 6-7 we averaged 13 APG. If we get our normal number of assists we win the Finals in 6 games. A guy like Tiago should be able to average 15+ with better ball movement.

    No. You follow the Celtics and you love Rondo. Let the masses speak for themselves shall we?
