Then you apparently haven't watched Rondo in several years. He's not the same guy and is far inferior to Lowry as a player.

Idk why but I LOL'd HARD at this. Lol Knicks fans would lose their **** at reading this post.


People on here like to complain that we don't have our own D-League team, but we do... the New York Knicks

Go read the Rondo trade thread on the NY board. It's all Bargnani bashing. The Bargnani traded had a huge impact on both franchises.

personally i don't think rondo takes the game seriously till the playoffs. he may have dropped off since his knee injury but his regular season stats belie his real effectiveness

Whatever the case is, it doesn't change the fact that Rondo is a horrific shooter who has lost a step defensively following the ACL injury.

The Bargnani trade is saving the Knicks from themselves. Can't believe they want to trade a first for a Rondo rental
