Apathetic play with the exception of the last 5min. Rondo needs to some leadership and play with some intensity.
I hope Teague and Lou are giving him a lesson of what it means to play with speed.
Rondo's quickness has to be his most overrated asset.
being a fast break point guard is also a lie. Rondo's tempo is methodical half court basketball
Completely agree, in fact, he pretty much has admitted such a few years back. That it's difficult for him to make himself run.
Interesting nugget. TP Do you have link to the quote?
Not at the moment, it's just a recollection of I think during a playoff series, and I think it was a bit in response to Doc always telling him to run, run, and that he needs to push himself to do it, that it doesn't come natural to him. I think there was a portion about his mood playing into it, about over thinking, or getting down on his mistakes which made it difficult to run at times, etc.
Would be cool if I can find it again, but it was some years back.
