I can only hope that the fans at the game in a couple of weeks when Dallas come to town give Rondo a standing ovation when he's announced.  he likely won't get the tribute PP and KG got but he deserves an ovation at a minimum

Seriously, you don't think he merits a video tribute?  I think they can probably cobble together a few highlight level clips. :)

i am an advocate of the trade. but i also recognize rondo as a unique talent who helped the celtics win their championship.

i hope the celtics have the good taste and grace to provide rondo with a tribute and welcome when dallas comes to the garden.

Oh Rondo, we hardly knew ye. Even after years of being on this team, we still don't understand you very much. But you gave us some mountainous highs, and for that- THANK YOU. You were mercurial, oft-criticized, and ultra talented. Some incesssantly defended you while others did the opposite. But we can all agree you are worth much more than what we got. So thank you, Rajon Rondo: World Champion, Captain, "Playoff MVP." It sure was fun. 



PS good luck in Dallas and see you in January.

TP for starting this thread, Get Lucky.  Why it's only been viewed about 200 times as of now just shows how ridiculous people on here are, smh.  Danny Ainge is a Daft Prick. ;) ;D

Haha! Thanks. Yeah when I started this thread I was resigned to the fact that it was neither controversial nor nostalgic enough to garner much interest. I jus tthought it needed to be started.

I'll miss you Rondo.  You were a key role player in our 2008 title and had some of the most amazing performances I've ever seen in your prime.  You had heart.  You were a terrific player.  Best of luck in Dallas.   Here's hoping you come back to us this summer.
This. Also one of the most skilled Celtics ever.

I miss that dude.  Rondo was special, man.  What a player.  Thanks, Rondo.
