How is this possible again? They have beaten the champs but also played some really shitty teams like the clippers without cp3 and raptors/kings/magic
Is Rondo really that good or were the rest of the celtics simply a bad fit for him for the first half of the season?
Lakers will crush them.
I'm always right.
He's the most overrated player in the league.
Other players stepping up, plus Rondo never was Celtics best player.
A huge injury to one of your best players happen, other players step up. Just look at Chicago.
wait for the play offs, every yeah people talk crap about rondo and every year he's a play offs beast. The kid knows when to turn it on.
They are probably extra motivated that people wrote them off when Rondo went down

Yes because that is what we are talking about.

This. At his peak he was only the 3rd best player on the Celtics. The guy somehow got incredibly overrated. Hopefully this situation brings him way back down to where he should be labeled and discussed. He is NOT an elite player.
He was ball-hogging and stat whoring and all the other quality guards didn
Meh.....blow it up while as they show their trade value.
I mean Ainge would be an idiot to not start rebuilding this team right now with this Rondo excuse.
rondo's impact has always been overrated. KG has always been the celtics most important/most impactful player and you can argue that pierce is the 2nd.
hes a stat-whore. he stole stats from pierce and kg and made them look like role players. same shit lebron does. except lebron won a championship stealing stats, so no problem in him doing that. now that rondo is out, the pierces and kgs can go back to getting the ball and able to create their own shots. rondo extremely overrated. great numbers, but doesnt really make the team that much better.

True. When KG is on the bench, Celtics are by far the worst team in NBA, worse than Bobcats (!), even with Rondo on the floor. With KG playing, Celtics are actually good Playoffs team with Top3 defense.
