no its not, its barely making the playoffs in the west. do you guys forgot when all anyone ever complained about was getting shooters to space the floor for kobe? now you want to bring in rondo? hes pretty much just kendall marshall with defense, not really that enticing.
some of you seem to be pretty delusional about how good kobe will be/how good rondo actually is.
this trade idea is disgusting.
Rondo is much more than Marshall with defense, lets be real here.. The only thing they have in common is being great passers.. Rondo is 1 of the toughest competitors in the league & much like Kobe, leads by working harder than everyone else.. His inability to shoot would be a huge problem but Boston won 1 ring & made another finals appearance with him, his strengths outweigh his weaknesses.. He also might be 1 of the few superstars in the league that we can lock in for less than the max.
