I love Rondo, but he is either unable or doesn't want to stay in front of his man on defense. So frustrating.

I still remember the playoff series vs the magic a few years back when anthony carter killed Rondo just because he refused to focus his defensive effort on him

  Translation: someone scored a couple of easy baskets against Rondo in a game.

Translation: just about anyone being guarded by Rondo gets to the hoop at will every game

  Translation: someone gets past Rondo and you're on it like white on rice, Rondo plays good defense and you're too busy looking for his next mistake to notice what happened.

You honestly believe Rondo does a good job staying in front of his man? More power to you.

  I think if you watched any point guard play defense as critically as you watch Rondo you'd think they were terrible at keeping their man in front of them. Which point guards do you think rarely let their man get past them?

Deron Williams for one

Good game for Jet. But, Greg Smith might be in the hall of fame after this game.  ::)

Good pass over Garnett to find Greg Smith. Missed who threw it.

Garnett a little lackadaisical in getting back Smith there.

Garnett schooling Greg Smith on the other end.

McHale needs to get Smith out of the game away from Garnett. Clearly cannot defend KG.

McHale did. Asik back in. Good coaching. Quick decision.
