A lot of bummy unathletic dudes in here exposing themselves. I'm 100% in better physical shape than rondo and I'm prolly taller too. Game to 7, he scores 3 points max.
Rondo will shoot J’s and cross you up all day. It would be child’s play to him.

You not faster than him, you don’t jump higher than him, you don’t have his conditioning, you don’t do shyt on the court anywhere near his level. How you expect to hold him to three points? Rondo was an All-NBA level defender how you expect to score on him.

You being taller don’t mean shyt. What you gonna do post him up so he can strip you clean every time? His hands Kawhi level and he got a 6’9 wingspan at 6’1.

Your quote of "They're regular ass people" is exactly where your logic fails. Professional athletes such as Rondo are not regular in any way. Rondo has hands bigger than LeBron and many forwards in the NBA - hence his hands are abnormal. His arms are unusually long as well, equally as abnormal. He walks around with the arms of a forward/center and the hands of a forward/center with the speed and hops of a guard. That's not what your average person walks around as. I've played against and with Rondo in a casual setting. People who haven't directly played Rondo see his long steps on television and think he isn't quick. When Rondo gets speed going, he's easily one of the quickest players in the NBA I've seen in person. Let's say your words are correct. You are quicker than Rondo and such an amazing athlete, yet not in the NBA because? There's no reason why you wouldn't be in the NBA if you were even more of an athletic marvel/freak than Rondo (unless your actual skills are weak and if that's the case, even if you were more athletic than Rondo, with no skills you aren't beating him).

If he's seriously that good then he's idiot for not trying out with a team. Being a 12th or 11th man in the NBA is far more lucrative than most jobs. If I had even quarter of Rondo's talent I'd use my vacation time from my job to try out every year. Having NBA level talent and not using it would be insanely stupid from a financial standpoint.

NBA rookie minimum salaries START at 500K. Vet minimum is 1,000,000+. @DALLASMAVERICKS Go try out for a team and stop talking shyt on a message board. You're either a troll, a moron, or both.

Draymond would dunk all over you, bully ball you, or post you up like a bytch. He's strong as fukk. He's also a solid NBA ball handler so he'd be elite to you.
I hope as a grown man you wrote this post wit the :dame: face on.

If I knew any better I would think Draymond was your daddy

You think they're giving millions of dollars to people who AREN'T exponentially better than the best player you've ever matched up against in your life?

There's probably 2 million people out here playing ball regularly. And only the best 500 or so see the league..that's the top 0.025%

My boy Rodney is 6-7 350 and lives in orlando. He was in the gym and saw Dale Davis so he challenged him to a game.

Dale gave him the ball first so Rodney was thinking I played football. I'm gonna muscle him under the basket and get buckets.

He said the turned his back at the 3 point line and couldn't push Dale past the free throw line so he settled for a fadeaway jumper that got smashed. :mjlol:

He said it was the last time he touched the ball. Dale beat him with straight jumpers and talked shyt the whole time. Step back 3's. Crossovers. The whole repertoire.

Rodney was like, how come you can't do that shyt in the game. :dwillhuh:

Dale said, cuz I don't play you every night. :sas2:

I. Got w


Not quite as good as when Scalabrine cooked those 3 radio guys, but I don't think I could get tired of seeing regular people get cooked by NBA players.

I got washed by a couple NBA players.

I got washed by a few Euro ballers

I got washed by a few D1 players

Be 6'5 and don't have elite ball or shooting skills and get matched up against the best player on the opposing team cause your tall brehs
