Wow, Jon...

It would have been pretty cool to have this news break earlier this morning when Mike Gorman was on Boston sports radio with Toucher and Rich. He was always a pretty solid believer in Rajon as a player, but I'd be curious to hear his take on this.

What a waste. Some loser team is going to just chuck max money at him and he's going to take it and do nothing for the next five years. All his years in Boston, I honestly thought he was going to be better than this.

If I'm Mark Cuban and this kid comes to me saying "Its me or Carlisle"...I pack his mother f*cking bags for him and show him the door.

What team in their right mind is going to give that knucklehead a max deal at this point?

Jim Buss is the kind of idiot that would.

[Akrazotile]

Rocket fans are shook

THIS.

Let's do this Mavs!!!!!

[Akrazotile]

Jim Buss is the kind of idiot that would.

Yeah look at the crap players he brought or tied to bring in already. Nash, Paul, Howard.

Youre so stupid jim buss!!!! The guy in the radio telled me so!!!!

I just want a good series, but it hasn't been so far, with the exception of how insanely fun it was watching Josh Smith to Howard oops.

[DirkNowitzki41]

The back injury could be legit.. he really didn't look like he wanted to play yesterday... lots of plays where it looked like he put no effort.

Oh well, looks like we've seen the last of Rondo as a Mav...

[He Strong]

I feel like any team picking up Rondo in FA is taking a 50/50 gamble. Could make the team better, or much worse.

Have you not seen some of the contracts these teams are tossing out? Someone completely not in their right mind is going to do it.

[brandonman]

Damn you fast Its all good bro, I edit it already.

I could be a homer and argue, but I'm pretty realistic. Although if the Rockets can consistently play they way they played the 4th quarter yesterday while seeing more from Harden, they are a tough out for anybody. But that's a BIG IF.

50% chance he makes the team better? When was the last time he made his team better?

[Lebron23]

Dang crazy how everyone's against rondo now didn't take long to throw him under the bus

Same with Tony Parker and Damian Lillard.

The thing is, Rondo was never the player most people thought he was (while in Boston included). It was clear what he couldn't do while it wasn't so clear what he could do. While he was focused, he could produce great games. On average though, his passing was massively overrated (he would refuse an easy lay up for a corner 3 sometimes) and so was his defense. I know that on most sites, after a good defensive season, most people believe that the player will retire with a good defense, but that's just not the case. I think he's also not right in the head, i think he's emo.


Someone should bump all the threads from years ago so we can laugh at the boxscore morons.

You're a grade a moron if you don't think he's a great passer.
