Is it just me, or does Pierce, Rondo and some others have an agenda on IT?
Rondo's comments about Isaiah and not deserving a tribute video kind of came across as rude to me, considering Rondo wasn't even the 3rd best player on the 2008 team and this is the same Isaiah who played just a day after his sister's death. And he did do a ton for this team the past 2.5 years (recruited Horford, Hayward, and got you back Kyrie in the trade). Frankly, he put in a TON of effort every day for the C's in his time here, whereas after the Big 3 was pretty much disbanded, Rondo looked lazy and didn't play with a ton of effort (hence, his trade).
And I'm slightly disappointed with Pierce here. I agree with Jalen when he says, "is a 2-3 minute tribute video during a TV timeout really going to splash water on Pierce's ceremony that night".
THAT SAID, I do think this all could be avoided if Isaiah just let the video play the first time the two teams played @TD Garden. Just schedule for your family to come to Boston in that time range, I mean he knew months in advance that that date would be the first time he returns to TD Garden... but now it's an issue of "does Isaiah even deserve a tribute video" according to Rondo, Tracy McGrady, etc...
Idk, to be honest this has just become overblown and is looking ugly for ALL sides involved.
