What's the market for Rajon Rondo?

[thernbroom]

He's made 3 free throws in 2015 as of today.

My answer is still "yes." But I'd assume most players would be healthy during free agency in the offseason.

If I'm a GM trying to build a legit contender, I choose Rondo over most.

Healthy is different from full health and full strength... full health and full strength, no one is seeing rose or cp3

I'm pretty much speechless, because the last time we saw him ball out in the 2011-2012 playoffs he was still averaging 4 turnovers a game, and shooting 47% while being wide open. He is the same player he was then, except his FT shooting got worse, and he's slower. I have a hard time believing there is a single GM in the league, or many people on the planet that would agree with you that Rondo is a better signing than Wall, Irving, or Lillard even if I can give you lowry and lawson because at least they are a few years older.

you might be letting your admiration for rondo cloud your judgement.

Are we sure @SuperCoolP_Cal isn't Rondo himself?


Rondo is trash.

 

[William F. Russell]

yes exactly. rondo consistently looks people off.. would porb take most shooters out of there rhythm.. so he needs veteran shooters that will b ready.. nice try thoigh

That makes no sense.

I always thought Rondo was borderline garbage to be honest. He had a lil hot streak a few years ago in the playoffs, but that has proven to be an anomaly.

If you're a guard and after 8 years in the league, you still can't shoot 65% from FT (and that's setting the bar really low), you clearly don't put in the time to work on your game. At least J Kidd could hit free throws, and his three pointer got respectable then eventually good.

Rondo been the same dude for 5 years now. It's like waiting for Dwight Howard to develop a post game. He is what he is.








Watch the Lakers sign him this summer

Or maybe you got it all wrong. Probably.

NBA has changed to the point that an point guard like Rondo who can't shoot is going to struggle...

He is in a very bad spot in dallas because he is surrounded by players ( Monta, Dirk, Parsons, Harris ) who actually prefer to create their own shot...

He would need to go to a team where the majority of players can't create their own shot, don't want to create their own shot, and he could just dominate the ball and get people open looks...

He could put up numbers like he used to in boston if that was the case...

Nothing has really changed in his game...still has quick feet, still can handle the rock well (all the turnovers he is getting in dallas is a product of playing with does who just don't know how to establish position for a pass outside of Dirk )

Off top of my head only teams I can think of that would benefit from a player like him are Orlando, Phoenix, MAYBE Sacremento...

Him in Sacremento makes a lot of since because he would find all types of ways to get Cousins the ball...

A max...nah not seeing it, his skill is a relic of an NBA that doesn't exist anymore

Orlando already has their version of Rondo in Payton.

I love Rondo on Sacramento. Would be great for Cousins and McLemore. Rudy too.

 

[Llcoolbay]

Havent Seen Someone defend a player this hard since the Early Miami Heat Days

But I aint mad at you @SuperCoolP_Cal, everybody got they faves

 

[SuperNintendo Chalmers]

I keep forgetting that Rondo has loyal and devout stans.

So does Brandon Jennings

 

[jaydolf spitler]

at the level of Rondo stannery on the first page alone. Onto the second

 

[DirtyD]

These retarded ass chowder heads still on here caping for this doofy alien looking motherfukker.

 

[jaydolf spitler]

Last game I watched of Rondo playing dude kept tryna make bounce passes in traffic that ended up getting kicked and sent out of bounds and turned it over way too much, saw nothing positive from him

 

[red222]

@AnthonyDiMoro: #Mavs Rajon Rondo is unlikely to return to the team after the season, per ESPN Dallas' Tim McMahon #sportsrants

:usurematteroffact:

Totally right about Payton...don't think you want two point guards who can't shoot from 2, 3, or the freethrow line

Lol I think with Gay's athleticism Rondo would give him a lot of good looks
