let's talk about rondo pathetically padding his stats

[SuburbanPimp]

He does do this often....

But down 20 in a game you aren't gonna win, What would you want him to be doing?

Trying to put up a gang of shots

You'd be hard pressed to find a star that doesn't try to pad their stats every once in a while.

I'm not giving him a pass because I've seen him force some assists a few times but to me its not that big of a deal

Um sit on the bench with the rest of the starters .Kd had 3 chances at a triple double this year , he didn't stay on the court in a clear blowout to collect his last assist because of his own personal vendetta.

I feel that, my next question was gonna be "why was he in the game anyway?"

Gotta put some of that on Doc Rivers...

I mean if I'm put out there in a blowout, I'ma pad my stats some. I can't front because I did it in High School.

You see it alot more often when dudes are trying to get a triple double so I KD for that...

I think Rondo got talent but he also has some bytchassness in him too so thats why its just not that suprising to me..

is this board serious? being unselfish..............is selfish? what? i think i seen everything







btw rondo could be the best player in the league if he(celtics) wanted(allowed) to...remember when he became "selfish"(the first selfish i mentioned) and became aggresive and torched the Heat in the playoffs last year? he is a point guard you know he has to distribute....he isn't derrick rose who is just a small SG....no 'n

He torched the Heat ??

Chalmer and Wade didn't assert themselves to play D on Rondo that is why Rondo stats look against the Heat in ECF. I will never forget how Wade shut Rondo down in the second half of Game 6 when decided to play defense on Rondo.

Really?....

so an assist, something that benefits two people, is a SELFISH act?...

SO I guess if Rondo REALLY cared about winning he would....be on the bench down 20?...

A PG primary job is to create offense, yet when Rondo does so..even if he forces it...its selfish?

not to mention an assist is an actual tangible measurement of offensive success...maybe more PG's would be successful if they did so...

like last night, Rondo took 4 shots...according to yall he isnt an offensive threat yet you fault him for playing to his strength, which is passing

stat-padding is in all walks of sports, most if not all of the great have done so...and majority of the time, the player isnt padding a multi-beneficiary assist

lmao at all you hating idiots. the fact that we're hating on a man for passing the ball really exposes either people trolling or that are just plain stupid.

if you were in his spot, you wouldn't go for the record? REALLY

 

[Slob On My Knob]

the assist stat padding is disgusting

nah theyre above that....

if its not in the flow of the game it dont count (lets just forget its a PG's job to create/manage the flow of the game)

 

[William Bassington]

You have to check the context of the video. Idk if it was this game in particular but a very similar play to that video happened. The reason Westbrook passed KD the ball for that layup was cause Kd was cold for the whole game up until that point and Westbrook was tryna spark KD to get some kind of rhythm/confidence going in his game (he needs to have something go into the basket even as simple as a layup/dunk).

When you down 20 playing with bench warmers with 1 minute left yes

You're down 20 regardless, whats the difference? You know damn well if you had this huge 10assist/game streak going you'd do the same

 

[Trece]

All players pad stats

 

[PTBG]

So Tony Parker turns the ball over, and Rondo has a wide open lane to the basket as the Spurs gives up on defense, but instead of just going for the open lay-up, Rondo waits for Bass to get to the rim just so he can get his assist
