Lets Face Facts Rondo 2nd Best Player IN NBA

[jboy4]

No doubt rondo is good, but 2nd best player, I dont think so

[Capybara]

No argument from me, Rondo is the fukkin MAN. Doing absolutely everything for this team right now. He went from just a guy with a lot of speed and athletic ability to Mr. Everything. Runs the show completely. And sets the tone with his constant hustle.

But as someone said, the Celtics #1 calling card is their total team defense.

I would say Rondo is the number 2 gamer in the playoffs, not the best player. He comes to play when the most is on the line. Nobody can take that away from him. Coming up big in the playoffs, late in the playoffs far outweighs regular season highlights and stats. It is why Billups is still called Mr Big Shot even though he hasn't done shit since the 2004 finals.

[Goat Milk]

Seaborneq,

Billups took his team to the conference finals 7 straight years. After they won it in 04-05, he took pistons back to ECF in 05-06, 06-07, 07-08, then got traded to denver and took them to WCF in 08-09.

After Billups got traded for A.I, Denver became and instant contender and Detroit wasn't even a playoff team anymore...

[milwaukee mike]

some of the ridiculous arguments that say since rondo is still playing in the playoffs and lebron/wade aren't he must be better are crazy.
that also means that big baby, andrew bynum, tony allen, etc are among the top 20 in the nba?

and then i guess automatically last year dwight howard was a top 5 guy for being in the finals, but now he is complete garbage just because they're losing ONE playoff series.

it would be funny to have some of you guys as a general manager, "well who do we want to attract, lebron, wade, chris bosh, joe johnson - NO WAY forget all those guys they suck i only want rondo! he is the greatest player in nba history, as proven by his 4-14 shooting and 11 points tonight! even better than jordan/kobe would do!"

[spongerat]

tonight rondo was amazing

[milwaukee mike]

good point goat milk, but consistent winning and years upon years of solid play doesn't seem to matter here, rondo has had a good month so even though he has averaged 10 pts/game and 6 assists/game for a 4 yr career he is already better than billups ever was (i'm kidding of course) averaging 15 pts/game and 6 assists/game for a 13 yr career

people always have a short memory of things even from last year

[WileOut]

Its hard to judge Rondo. He benefits so much from having so many great players on the team. Definitely a top 5 PG though.

i like #1 on your list

[jjgold]

Rondo won a title already and has a shot at another one

Guys mentioned in this thread never came close

He is a winner and best all around guard in NBA other than Kobe now

Announcers all even said he is number 1 point guard in league

[milwaukee mike]

rondo's a great player no question

even if the announcers call him the #1 point guard i would still rather take deron williams or chris paul. and for ALL guards i believe there's a guy named dwayne wade

keep in mind these are the same announcers that all picked orlando as the favorite for nba champ after they beat atlanta, they were all kissing howard's butt now they are kissing rondo's butt (they have to sell SOMETHING with how boring these playoff series have been)...

[Scorpion]

Lets not deny it any longer

Its Kobe
Rondo

gasol
kobe
rondo

[investor]

i'm with you on that milwaukee mike. I'll take Deron and Cp all day before Rondo. However i do think Rondo poses a threat to the Lake Show...Prob. the biggest threat.

[JUST A MAN]

Rondo?

JJ, put down the crack pipe.

Rondo? He only fits the Boston mold.

[necro]

Rondo can suck my schlong!

[PuckCoach]

Rondo is very good. He has a different skill set than most point guards. He is a very good rebounder and passer. Not sure if he is on Wade or Lebrons level. But can we really rank players 1,2,3?

[Devon]

Yeah, Rondo going against Jameer Nelson, Mo Williams, Carlos arroyo these playoffs. You guys are fukking retarded. What happens when Rondo plays against Derron Williams and even Derick Rose? He gets shit on... thats what happens. Rondo is not even close to a top 15 player, he's not even a fukking top 3 pg- he's going against some of the worst defensive pgs in the game that are making him look like jesus.

yep even one retard lebron james had to guard rondo... i mean, you know, that guy is a hack and all too.

[ngates815]

jesus christ... People all over Rondo's nuts....yes he's doing good, but no way in hell is he a top 10 player in the league.

[cecbo]

Hey, if all the announcer stated that Rondo is the #1 PG, then it MUST be true!

[louisvillekid]

Lets not deny it any longer

Its Kobe
Rondo

this coming from the same person who always says teams can't win with Black leaders running the show, i.e. QB's, Head Coaches, Point Guards, etc.

Funny how he played for Tubby at UofK and learned the solid fundamentals of the game and the most important being Defense, yet Tubby can't coach to most people. And now he has stepped up his game even more by learning from Doc and Allen.

[GroundnPound]

Dumb thread

[LT Profits]

Yessss!! JJ Gold Ur close here. Most underrated player in NBA is most accurate I think though.

But Rondo will cross over to OVERRATED status after these playoffs.

Dumb thread

Of course it is...

But, as much as it pains me to say this, that's the genius of JJ...

He throws shit up on the wall to see what sticks...then he sits back and watches everyone jump in...and SBR continues to cut JJ a check for his ability to generate "traffic"...

That's a good way to put it, to be honest I don't know why he draws so much hate even though I wrote dumb thread it's sometimes a good read.

[Doc JS]

That's a good way to put it, to be honest I don't know why he draws so much hate even though I wrote dumb thread it's sometimes a good read.

Because he writes so much stupid shit... like:

Orlando will win game 2 by 15 points

Orlando is the sharp play in game 3

Rondo is the second best player in the NBA

Phoenix is a $10,000 play tonight (could somebody loan it to me)

I could go on...but I won't...

Doc

[Holtgetsback]

most don't consider DEFENSE a part of a players skill set...

Rajan RONDO is the BEST defensive point guard in the NBA..and it isn't even close

infact the only player recieving more NBA All-Defensive Team votes than RONDO was DWIGHT HOWARD

NBA All-Defensive team is selected by 30 NBA coaches.


defense wins championship fellas. that is what makes rondo a top 5 current player in this league.

get off the ****in stats who cares

[goldengreek]

lets not deny it any longer

its kobe
rondo

lmmfao !!!!!!!!!!!!


10 good games makes u the second pest player ??

He is the 5th best point guard in the nba

wow - what a diffrence 10 games make

[MaxEMillion]

You are crazy JJ, Obviously Monta Ellis is the best guard in the NBA. Everyone knows that if he had any kind of help inside the Warriors would win the title every year.

[anjaru]

Whenever someone gets hot in the NBA for 1-2 games there is always some schmuck on these boards that says X is the best Y in the NBA.

For instance, last week Derek Fisher was pronounced as the best PG in the NBA.

[Holtgetsback]

the reason Rondo is the best point guard in the NBA is because he plays the BEST DEFENSE in the NBA...

and has done this all season...nothing new here people..go crunch your stats

guy is lock down...no one even comes close


I just filed a missing persons report for Jameer Nelson...

[BernardMadoff]

Lets not deny it any longer

Its Kobe
Rondo

No, just no.

[BernardMadoff]

You are crazy JJ, Obviously Monta Ellis is the best guard in the NBA. Everyone knows that if he had any kind of help inside the Warriors would win the title every year.

Monta is my boy, been following him since he was a junior in high school, but he isnt the best guard.
