Rondo's making sure that he won't be one of the trade pieces in the next year or two.

because boston plays better defense than the spurs?


also, they won't have the same defensive mindset vs the spurs.


also the spurs haven't beat okc yet, get off your high horse.

Okay so real talk here:

we all know rondo was shooting lights out, very unlike his usual self. Lets give him the proper credit, he definitely seems to have been working on it and it's obviously improved a lot.

i think we can all agree he won't be shooting at this kind of % every game, but regardless, his shooting has improved dramatically (fairly noticeably in these playoffs)

Can we bring up the rondo vs cp3 discussion again at this point? I know most people are in the cp3>rondo group, but if rondo is really taking the next step to improve his ability to shoot from outside, can people still really argue that cp3 > rondo?

i feel like, at the least, they should be put on the same pedestal for comparison.

I'm actually kinda happy Miami won lol
Boston needs to GTFO out of these playoffs, and Miami needs to get to the Finals and then crash and burn again

Definetly they are both just sick, but it's hard. Rondo is showing us game that will blossom when KG, Pierce and Ray retire.
So thats why i can't even compare them. If Rondo gets that shot as a regular weapon. Look out.

If Rondo gets a jumpshot on the level of Chris Paul he's definitely top 3 NBA talent

don't come to the internet if you can't handle it
besides, you probably don't even know all the ridiculous amount of hate the Pistons got whenever they played Jordan and the Bulls. That made all this "hate" look pretty pathetic.

Ye, this game really showed how scary Rondo with a good jumpshot is. He's yet to get his game there consistently but he could be easily one of the best with a jumpshot :o

Spurs are not a fan favorite team. No one will care if the refs work the game against them.
Always happens like this:
1. Worked team drives and will always get calls. The other team will continue to foul or the refs make them play statue defense since they don't want the breathe fouls.
2. Other team drives and doesn't get the calls, they must turn into a jump shooting team.

Jump shooting vs close high % shots. The shots won't always fall for a jump shooting team.

The least corruptable sports seem to be individual sports like tennis and golf but team sports are just more exciting but are at risk due to subjective calls. At least my favorite teams and players are still mega millionaires when the refs work the games.
SC2 was doomed from the start.

Great game. Amazing performance from Rondo.

Pierce needs to stop fouling so much =/
