Celtics Morning JOE: Rondo the smaller Magic

Posted by shawn cassidy on April 13, 2012 at 2:15 AM

When Rondo looks into the mirror is he afraid of what he sees? Is he afraid of the person staring back at him. The mirror can only reflect the person looking. But deep inside looking through the glass we see shades of many point guards in Rondo's game. One point guard seems to be poping up in many Rondo conversations. That point guard is Magic. Johnson. Rondo is one of the most unique point guards just like Magic. Johnson was built like a forward, but of course he played point guard. Rondo puts up all around stats like Magic. Rondo is on the trail set by Magic. Rondo is clmbing the double digit assist streak. How much is Rondo like Magic. For Rondo he needs to work on the shooting.

So many words have been spoken about Rondo. Yet things remain unexpressed about his abilities. As i sit here and stare at the screen so many emotions run through me. I wonder of so many things, yet there is only one on my mind. Can we be in middle of one of the greatest careers in the NBA? He's already got the ring. Even if many give title credit to Rondo.

Rondo Doesn't think, he transforms. Journeys begin with first actions. Real world possibilities can be legendary. So take the jump now Rondo.

Magic played a lot like Lebron, if Lebron was a more creative, team-oriented player. Lebron tries to be team oriented. Magic was team-oriented to the bone, like Rondo, and he was creative, taking fast break basketball to the next level, but his style of play was focused a lot on his size, athleticism and power. His signature move was the same as Lebron's - a freight train drive to the basket, daring anyone to get in his way.

Rondo could end up as one of the best. Thats a player Danny wanted to trade. Thank go, he showed self control.

No he didn't. He's still talking about how he wishes he could have made trades.

When he has spoken. Your right. What a tool he is.

As I understand it, he said that he still wishes he could have traded off some of the Big Three or Four, despite what has happened since the trade deadline. One can hardly believe such an attitude. And we hear that Rondo has an attitude?!!

Danny also claims to have a conversation with Red Auerbach about trading one or more of the original Big 3. Yet in the end, It was Danny who was traded. I think that alone speaks volumes.
