Hes not even a top 20 point guard. Theres a few backups Id take over him :heh:

Dallas is really falling off fast for reasons @who_better_than_me alluded to. They could fukk around and miss the playoffs, the Suns will be 3 out of 7th if they beat the Wizards. If the Thunder can ever stay healthy and go on a winstreak...

That backcourt of him and rondo is really bad in the fourth especially in close games. Rondo seems a lot more hesitant than usual to shoot in the 4th and teams are 100% playing him to pass, so it reay hurts the mavs and Monte when monte goes to play iso ball, rondo is unguarded on the perimter.


Carlisle is a great coach but he needs to adjust. Break up rondo and monte on the court together less or something cuz rondo is pointless on the court off the ball. He doesnt even cut.

The mavs have become a lot more easier to defend
There's not much he can do, except leave him out the rotation altogether. He didn't even want Rondo in the first place.

He played solid defense on harden tonite. Defintely bothered/irritated him tonight. He can tell rondo to push the tempo more. They need tondo out there cuz dirk and parsons are not helping chandler out on the boards and rondo is a very good rebounder.

Mavs werent winning anything with jameer. I understand the risk but Carlisle has to make adjustments. Im enjoying this though as a rockets fan.

I haven't had a chance to check the game yet, I will after I finish this Celtics one.

Rondo doesn't help out on the boards, he doesn't bang the glass at all. The majority of his rebounds are scoop-ins off missed shots when the opposition is half way up the floor i.e padding his stats. It's quite pathetic for Rondo if his impact has now been lowered to 'the team needs him for his rebounding' isn't it?.

Nelson was certainly a better fit: he didn't dominate the ball, could knock down open threes in swing ball situations and allowed Harris to have more game time to develop rhythm on a consistent basis. Dallas were straight before the trade and were beginning to figure out shyt on the defensive end, this trade just ruined whatever chance (as minute as it was) of competing for a championship.

Carlisle going to have to fukk around and start lil JJ and bring Raymond fukking Felton off the bench of this keeps up:merchant:

Even Carlisle can't do anything for him:merchant:

Dude is basicaly Popovich 0.5 so if you are struggling under Carlisle...you...you might not even be a true NBA player anymore:merchant:

Dude got useful minutes out of Dalembert last year...has anyone picked him up since he been waved?

To think...Cuban spent the last 4 years trying to get Deron Williams (:scust:) Josh Smith (:scust:) Rondo (:scust:) Melo (:patrice:)
and Dwight (:patrice:)

good thing he only went 1 for 5 or who knows what state this team would be in

This dude just had ZERO points on 0-7 shooting, 6 assists and 5 turnovers IN 34 MINUTES. :merchant:
I didn't think he'd be THIS bad in Dallas. Contract year on a really good team and he's completely shyt the bed. They need to bring him off the bench so he can handle the ball more and start Harris.

@Dwight Howard was in the trade thread saying the trade was unfair and it should have been vetoed because Dallas was stealing Rondo. :mjlol:

A coli classic. @No..Money..Mo..Problems tell em breh. :whew:

- Says he has a very reliable source in the NBA saying "Rajon Rondo is a mortal lock to sign with the Lakers."

- Says Lakers and Rondo have mutual interest and Lakers will offer Rondo the max.

- Reports are out now that Lakers are prioritizing Rondo because they know they can't get Dragic.

- Gives his own opinion that this is "Stupid Lakers, stupid!" But understands Lakers have to use 90% of the cap per League rules, and there's no other free agents they believe they can realistically acquire.

- Says hopefully the Lakers are able to sign Rondo to a short term deal with the most money he can get, because he doesn't want Lakers paying max dollars to a 35 year old player who can't shoot and is twice as slow as he is now.

Uncertain grounds
:bryan:You are sick irritational hater. Deep inside you know Rondo is better than 2/3 of the guys you listed. I'm seriously doubting that you know what at PG does. That's why Rondo's playing style confuses the hell out of you.

Btw IT comes of the bench. No one wants that gunner starting. Look how good the Kings look without him

:mjpls:
