Rondo sets Playoff record?

I believe Rondo set a new playoff record for most Assists in a game without a Turnover. 19 assists w/ 0 TOs. Previously Magic Johnson had 17 assists w/ 0 TOs in a playoff game.

Who cares. These are useless stats. If there's is a stats of stupid shots he would've led it.

If Rondo had 7 more points and 6 more turnovers, he would have had a so-so, Jason Kidd-like stat line.

He also would have about the same effect on the Cs as he did with the stats he actually achieved.

This was NOT a lousy game for Rondo. It just wasn't a great one either.

Irrelevant. Passing to a well-covered guy who then scores is harder than passing to a wide-open guy who then scores. The pass has to be more accurate to succeed.

Rondo was way too passive last night. I think he is just tired. He could have gone to the rim 20 times but absolutely refused to do so...when he plays like that we don`t win games...

I can only imagine the media orgasm that would occur if Derrick Rose had Rondo's stat line last night. They'd start asking if he's going to be better than LeBron James.

Tough to appreciate something like that after such a tough loss but really that is an AMAZING stat.

58 minutes
19 assists
0 turnovers

0 turnovers in 58 minutes!!! (I suppose many of those shots were turnovers but whatever)

he had zero turnovers? Really?

I could of swore one pass was a turnover... maybe it was the other player's fault.

Maybe if he gets the ball to Ray Allen instead of trying for an stupid fadeaway...he would have had 20 assists, 0 TO's, and Ray would have gotten 54 pts with 10 3pt field goals made...with a WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rondo **** up yesterday..but you can't be mad at the guy..he has been our best player easy...

Ya, he should have kept driving as the help was even with him at the line and he's past Noah's help by the time he gets to the basket. No guarantee it goes in, but that's a lot better shot than a hesitant fade-away that gave Rose PLENTY of time to react to and block. He did hit him on the elbow on the way up, but who cares, poor decision by Rondo. No way you're getting that call, and the block itself was more than clean. Our good friend Hinrich then pushes both Rondo and Ray in the knocking them over to get the ball, but again who cares. That's a free for all and I wouldn't want that called against our guys. Really the worst play though was Pierce's turnover and foul on Noah. The turnover was terrible, then he fouls him with no chance of stopping the dunk when Paul already had 5 fouls. The foul REALLY pissed me off. Let him go, don't give up the extra point, and keep your ass in the game.
