I still believe in Playoff Rondo running the bench. His strengths are faaaaaar more pronounced in this setting. Esp with sniffing out opposing playcalls

Whose minutes will he steal?

If we need more ball handling and shot creation, PLAY DION. He can actually score, shoot, and be a threat

If we need defense, keep playing AC

If we need more shooting, give Dion or Cook more time

I don't see what Rondo helps us with

Rondo impacts the game with his swag

It's still very early and I think Boston are the best team in the East right now, but a Heat-Lakers final would be special!

Your inferiority complex is your problem “bro”. Don’t tear down the way I post in order to feel better about the bird droppings you post.

I apologize for speaking in a way that makes you uncomfortable but I refuse to compromise my posting style in order to make you comfortable. Your comfort is of zero relevance to me.

Let me do what I do and you stick to your “cuz they dumb” type offerings (with the signature lol, lmao cocktail).

Your personal attacks are getting old btw. I will not be baited and I don’t cry to mods.

That being the case, I am handcuffed. I will probably be banned if I were to respond to you in the manor you deserve, so I suggest that you erase me from your response list and I shall do the same.

**As far as I am concerned, the cartoon avatar that speaks like a fifth grader is dead to me.**

All future responses directed towards me from you shall be responded to with Yawn (without exception)...

LOL and a pleasant journey to you “bro”.

Gotta say man, as a LeBron fan thank God he never had the kind of flaws Giannis has. I'd be sick if this is the guy I was sworn to defend online LMFAO. Sometimes I wonder if what they say about AAU is true, that despite all the downsides these kids that are given the reins to programs are allowed to develop way more shake to their game and just pure bucket getting instincts. Like looking at guys like Siakam and Giannis they just haven't lived their whole lives being the go-to guys like that. It's hard to develop your comfortability in go-to moves and instincts like that later in your life if you're not a blue Chip dude.

Playoff Horford only existed because of Brad Stevens

Rondo has shown it in multiple scenarios on multiple teams

hell Chicago mightve upset us in 17 if he didnt get hurt. And we saw his success against Dame in that sweep upset just a couple seasons ago

It's one thing to yeet a take, its another thing to massively drag stuff out. He made a dubious take. It really shouldn't need to be brought up everywhere they go. You guys already dedidcated a threat to making fun of it, brining it up now is just petty.

There's no reason he should need to post something like "i'm a prick, not arrogant." Move on already.

Rondo brings leadership and playoff experience.

I am leery of Rondo as well but I feel like Vogel has to kick the tires on playoff Rondo and see if there is any gas left in that tank.
