Will Rajon Rondo Boom or Bust with the Kings?

Hey Kings fans. I made a video breakdown taking a look at Rondo's performance in the preseason. What are your thoughts on how he's looked?

You make some good points breaking down his strengths and weaknesses. Nice video thanks for sharing!

He's looked good from what I've seen. The team has looked better when he's not pounding the ball into an orange mush though.

I am surprised you made another video about the Kings. The Kings will not get you those precious YouTube views, Coach! You need to whore yourself out to only the most popular teams like that other guy.

Yeah I try to find a balance. Most popular teams get most views but there are 30 teams and it's important to cover as much as possible. Another Kings one because I found Rondo's preseason performance intriguing.

I appreciate the nod and felt your breakdown was pretty spot on. Good work man.

Wanted to let you know I thought it was fair, and also enjoyed you covering the Kings.

I think he is likely to make his supporting cast more efficient than Collison, and also play good individual defense in stretches.

I also disagree with the general "pg should not crash the boards" sort of mentality. With our roster we are going to have Cousins often taking jumpers and able to fall back providing more opportunity to have a big back on defense, and WCS is very mobile himself to get back, and will not always have the best rebounding position. We will probably have him "out of the way" quite often. So I think you failed to take into consideration roster specific reasons, but still have Rondo as far as career concerns criticisms.
