If you are still posting in that Bash Rondo thread, please stop.   
And if you are bashing Rondo in said thread, first punch yourself in the face then stop. 

Seriously that thread needs to die.   
It's embarrassing to us all & Rajon certainly doesn't need that noise from the Celtic faithful

Against forum rules much? I believe we all have a right to our own opinions, no matter what they are.

Yeah, as angry as I am right now with some of the things being said, this is unessecary.

Their words alone "bash themselves".

Rondo deserves more from us than a thread dedicated to his "bashing"

Ok, here we go....

I can't dribble worth a rat's butt. I make tony Allen look like meadowlark lemon.

Shooting? Ha, I couldn't hit a bull in the butt with a handful of beans. Bad form. Terrible release, and don't even get me started about my efficiency rating.

Rebounds are impossible given that my arms would embarrass even a t-rex, I am closer to 4.5 feet than I am to 7 foot tall, and jumping ability... With these knees!?!?  You should book a flight on a pig before you bet money I can round up a rebound.

Defense - my best bet is to simply tackle the other guy before he has a chance to start moving. I could do that 6 times a game.... Assuming my back doesn't give out after the first few times.

As for my trade value.... Maybe a NBA team would pay ainge to keep me away from them.

There. Is that enough self bashing to placate the cb gods for an evening?

I only started playing basketball with other people (i.e. more than just shooting hoops in my driveway) 3-4 years ago.  So I pretty much have no idea how to move without the ball and my court vision is pathetic.  I also am a disaster trying to dribble when there's any kind of pressure at all.  Forget about finishing at the rim unless I'm wide open.

My range is basically limited to 10-15 feet from the basket.  When I'm just shooting around I think I'm actually pretty okay from mid-range.  But for some reason I have very little range.  When I try to step out to 3 point range (and we're talking about playground 3 here) it front rims or falls completely short.  Pathetic.

I do take pride in playing Avery Bradley style pressure defense (though without any sort of fundamentals or above average athletic ability) and annoying opponents who are used to pick up games being characterized by completely disinterested defense and pull-up threes.  Suffice to say I commit multiple fouls a second, but I force people to call em.  Not gonna let people get comfortable. 

I also do my best to box out, but I'm not that big so I don't grab very many rebounds.  And again, no fundamentals.  I learned most of my body positioning and footwork from playing soccer.

The best compliment I've ever gotten about my play was when I finished a game of pickup with a few strangers at the park down the street and one of the guys on the other team said I was "A real pain in the [butt]."

Guess we need a Bash Forum, or just simply an All Negative Forum, where pessimism and hatred can be sown at will and with fervor, and we half-full people, or those of us living in a "fantasy world", (as I've sometimes been accused of), can make a u-turn and save a few extra hairs from turning gray, (they're at a premium, afterall).
