Rondo is one tough SOB for a point guard 

Post#1 » by Tirion » Mon Dec 14, 2009 7:14 am

Rajon Rondo has this to say about the Brad Miller flagrant foul:

The hit was softer than I expected,’’ Rondo said. “I knew I was going to get hit, going back to last year. It wasn’t as hard as it seemed. I think he tried to go for my face but he hit me in my nose.

But I’ve been hit harder. You just know, you’ve got a feeling. It didn’t hurt, I was just focusing on trying to make a free throw, honestly. I wasn’t mad or anything, that’s part of the game. I’ve been hit way harder. Next time we play them I’m still going to drive whether it’s him whether it’s [Joachim] Noah or anybody. It could be Shaq[O’Neal]. I’m still going to drive that’s what I do.’’


Also worth noting that Miller got his revenge already in Game 7 of last season play-off series, throwing Rondo to the ground a couple of times. But apparently it's not enough for a 7-footer, apparently his vagina still hurts. And they call KG a bully. Maybe if Bulls players were more busy actually trying to win games instead of nursing petty grudges they could win a game or two.

He is tough, and Miller *is* a weenie...remember that girlie punch Shaq threw at Miller a while back and he ran away like a little bitch? :lol: :lol:

Rondo's always been tough. He's like Dwyane Wade, always throwing his body around and getting knocked to the floor. But he gets up and knocks others to the floor.

I love the grudges and the physical basketball. I love how a teeny tiny guy like Rajon pisses off big, bad seven footers. I'm with Scalamental: it's good for the game.

The difference being Wade throws himself wildly into traffic to draw fouls...Rondo is usually pretty controlled and trying to make something happen...
