Rondo isn't a star. That's the point that you seem to be missing. Both Rondo and Parsons are good role players. Parsons is the better fit for...
Rondo has a reputation for taking games off and stat-padding.
Uh, aren't you the one who brought up those Finals as evidence of Rondo's worth? Rondo is a pretty good point guard, but massively overrated....
Are you seriously suggesting that a 98ORTG for a point guard isn't absolutely terrible? 45%TS despite not being a first, second or third option....
He averaged 13.6/7.6/6.3 on 45TS% and a 98ORTG. He was awful in that series and wasn't even being guarded.
Are you seriously citing a Bleacher Report "article"?
The Celtics were a championship team in 2008. Rondo wasn't a leader of that team or any Celtics team with KG & Pierce on it.
What makes you say Rondo is a big game performer?
PER36 Regular Season: 12.2 ppg, 10.1 apg, 4.7 rpg, 3.1 TOpg, 52.0% TS, 108 ORating Playoffs: 14.2 ppg, 9.0 apg, 5.9 rpg, 2.9 TOpg, 49.6% TS,...
He's afraid to shoot because he's a poor shooter. He's afraid to drive because he's a poor free throw shooter and doesn't want to get fouled. In...

Actually, Rondo is less valuable in a half court setting because he is a poor scorer who puts little pressure on the opposing defense.
Right, the one with basketball knowledge is obviously the guy who thinks Michael Carter Williams is better than Goran Dragic and John Wall. Yeah,...
Now this is delusional.
Yeah, the guy who averaged 20 points on 60%TS, 11 assists and 4 rebounds in the postseason over his Phoenix career wasn't the playoff performer...
Is this supposed to pass for an argument? A playoff series in which Rondo wasn't even one of the top 6 players on the floor. I mean, Derek Fisher...
This "play big in big games" meme is a myth. Rondo plays exactly the same in the playoffs as he does in the regular season. He just plays more...
We know the type of things Morey feels are important, see: Shane Battier. We know he said the person who created the box score should be shot....
Even more than fit, the issue remains that Rajon Rondo is simply not that good a player. The idea that Morey of all people would trade multiple...
Yeah, if the Raptors really are interested in Teague, then Lin actually makes sense there. He's a slightly better, (very) slightly younger and...
