This thing is ridiculous per se, no matter what anyone thinks about statpadding.
Ray missed his 3 previous shots. Rondo just gave him an easy bucket. I wasn't expecting the Bulls staff to hand out an assist for that.

LeBron James did the exact same thing in his first game and was praised for it. Weird.

Do you really think that an easy layup will help Ray's confidence?
Or that Rondo elaborated all this during the play?
I honestly think he just saw an assist coming...

Re: Did you all see what Rondo just did?
Thats why many people need to stop defining and ranking passing ability, court vision based on assist average. Assists have more to do with balldomination (playing PG) and how much you pass. In Rondos case, he dominates the ball like hell and plays alot and passes up anything almost all the time, open jumpshots or open layups/dunks just so he can get assists instead.

A rookie superstar in his first game ever was praised for deferring to his new teammates?
That is pretty damn weird.

Re: Did you all see what Rondo just did?
That is definitely stat padding your assists. No way to beat around the bush. You pass up a wide open layup to pass it to a guy who is actually behind you for the layup? I can understand if the guy is in front of you, or if there's one defender there, but...... Sometimes I'd also understand if you've got a dunker on the receiving end, you pass it off to make the play more spectacular, to get the crowd energised, but this?

Thats called unselfishness, but when you do it that much as Rondo, that means you want assists rather than points on your statsheet.

Again, I've got no problem with it, I just think all of this justification for a blatant move is hilarious.
exactly. isn't the glow-warm known for being automatic for his layups?
smh @ homers sweating so hard to find an excuse for this.

So when LeBron does it its unselfishness... Yeah, he didn't want the assist at all.

The thing that would be interesting to see is if Rondo's efficiency is higher or lower for instance. Like I always thought if Rose was on this Celttics team they would be unreal, but maybe Rondos style is most efficient for this team. But maybe passing up open jumpers/layups is less efficient.
And in playoffs this can be a very dangerous approach as teams like the Lakers sometimes disregard Rondo alltogether.
