    He's that sensitive to everyone or just the President? I couldn't imagine all the smack talk on the court, he must just curl up into the fetal position

    If the Bulls ever meets the Celtics in the playoffs and Obama is still President at that time, the Bulls should totally ask Obama, a Bulls fan, to say something that would destroy Rondo's mind.

    He is a crybaby. He also admitted his BFF Perkins getting traded messed with his game more than it should have.

    Rondo can't hit a wideopen jumpshot.
    That's nobody else's fault other than his own.
    Kyle Lowry soldiered through and made a HUGE breakthrough in his shooting abilities.
    Rondo sat at home and cried like a little b****.

    Some superstar PG he is...

    Lowry may not have had a great 3 pt shot coming into the league, but he still had better shooting skills than Rondo. Look at their FT%, for example. Lowry's a career 77% FT shooter while Rondo is a career 62%. Rondo probably got bigger mechanical issues than Lowry. Might have something to do with Rondo's long arms and huge hands.

    Michael Jordan has one of the greatest jumpers of all time, and his hands are MASSIVE...

    Might be sarcasm, but this whole anatomical explanation for poor shooting has never had much traction with me (like Shaq blaming his FT% on his big hands). Sabonis was one massive dude and was a legit shooter. Like knote said, Jordan had huge hands, so did Stockton. Long limbs and not being very strong never stopped Reggie Miller from setting the 3pt record.

    obvious attention grab.

    rondo shot fine the first half. you think he just all the sudden 42 games or so into the season remembers what the president told him 5 months prior?

    and rondo's shot was always iffy, everyone knew it, everyone said it. you're telling me he this was the first time he heard it? im sure having the prez diss your game is a little embarrassing, but the guy is praised for the other things in the game so i doubt he'd be butt hurt for this. the announcers and hall of famers have spoken to his jumpshot and they agreed, although i thought his mid had improved he just rarely took it i felt. hard to even remember now, feels like yeseryear...damn you nba players
