Celtics Sign Rajon Rondo

[nadeau01_johnson48]

I'm pretty sure Rondo is not average, I know there are a lot of biased people on these forums who give inputs into situations they don't know much about. Rondo is a pass first point guard, if he doesn't have to score he won't, but if he does he will. Check last year when KG was out, Look who mostly picked up his points. He's also a very good rebounder and has a very low assist to turnover ratio. If most of you guys were to say look at Tony Parker, when he came into the league he wasn't a great shooter, he could finish at the rim like Rondo, but outside was below average. Now you can't have a conversation with mentioning his name as top 5 PG. Same will be Rondo. As for once the big three leaves, the Celtics will add more pieces to this team. Who knows maybe they could even add someone next year when Rays contract is up.

And you can always count on a biased Celtics fan to give a ridiculous opinion.....works both ways.

Really? My opinion isn't biased it's based on the facts.

Saying Rondo will be as good as Parker isn't biased?

Theres a saying about good rebounding PGs, that means they aren't doing what they're suppose to do, PGs are suppose to stay back to make sure there isnt a fast break situation...

It's a comparison, I'm not the only one that has made this, everyone has especially in the national media.

Really? I think it comes along with how the game is progressing and the floor is spread out more by these PF and C who can shoot beyond the 20ft Range. So if we're going to stick to conventional basketball we can also make a case for Centers and Power forwards being down low at all times and should be posting up players instead of taking a shot from the outside, that can potentially spread the floor and allow one of your players to drive the lane.

For the last 2 seasons Rondo's team have peformed way better than the CP3 and Deron's team. I think this was a great deal because Rondo is getting better and better.

Yep. Rondo is average. He can't shoot to save his life, and the only reason he has half of the assists that he does is because he has knock-down shooters around him. The guy is the definition of 'average.'

Then I guess the same thing could be said about Stockton...he's average, because he didn't score...only reason he had half the assists he had was because of Karl Malone.

Hahahaha....Chris Paul is probably the best rebounding GUARD in the league...he even averages more boards than most SFs...sorry, but that theory is not valid.
