Playoffs lets get it

[Gileraracer]

On the paper it looks good, but:


Rondo and Cousins, two divas in one team. How long you think this'll go well?

Rondo is an absolute plague, we've seen that last year.

Rondo can still play

Mavs just didn't use him right, nor was he a good fit

I think he'll fit in perfect with George Karl's fast paced offense

They've been practicing/scrimmaging with an 18 second shot clock to speed things up

[GIF REACTION]

His three has always been a work in project, but when on point, his midrange is good enough to keep them honest.

[34-24 Footwork]

They have more than enough options on this team to where rondos offense won't be needed. Although he does need at least a little fifteen footer to keep the defense honest

I'm actually excited for this ball club too.

[GIF REACTION]

He's the perfect guy for a George Karl dribble drive offense

Essentially just look at Andre Miller under Karl in Denver

I won't be surprised if we are a top 10 offense this season

[buddha]

that spacing is horrendous.

Rondo
Allen
Pierce
Garnett
Perkins

We have many options from our bench with regards to shooting

We could play

Rondo
McLemore
Belinelli
Gay
Cousins

Starting lineup of

Lawson
Igoudala
Gallinari
Faried
Koufos

Not a very good 3 pt shooting team

5th best offense that year

[34-24 Footwork]

I personally think Rondo is a better fit with the second unit. You gotta take advantage with collision's speed in that first unit in my opinion. He shouldn't just be dumping the ball down low all the time like rondo.

[AnaheimLakers24]

12th seed

[poido123]

A weird mix.


But it might just work...

[All Net]

As ever it depends on cousins stepping his game up and taking his team mates and making them better.

A. Rondo does way more than 'dump the ball down low all the time'.
B. They will play Collison and Rondo together a good amount.
C. Rondo is paid double what Collison makes and is by all accounts the vocal leader of the team already. He'll probably be starting eventually, if not right away.

We all know that the Jazz are going to down the Kings' hopes this season and take that 8 seed
