Right now, who is the better overall player: Chris Paul or Rajan Rondo?

Huh ?

Rondo certainly has learned how to shoot. Hitting a career high from mid-range and is being efficent overall.

Shhhh don't let them know that he actually does have a jump shot. It's much funnier when they don't expect it

I'll definitely want a guy who can actually take over games when it matters.

And Rondo in the last 4 post seasons has not proven this to you ?

2012 Playoffs
CP3: 17.6 PPG, 7.9 APG, 5.1 RPG, 2.7 SPG, 42.7% FG
Rondo: 17.3 PPG, 11.9 APG, 6.7 RPG, 2.4 SPG, 46.8% FG

Rondo played 19 games to CP3's 11 games and faced teams with appreciably better defense, including the Miami Heat.

Also consider Rondo is a better defender in the playoffs.

CP3 is clearly one of the four most impactful/valuable players of this season (LeBron, Durant, Melo), but again: in the playoffs Rondo takes it to another level he doesn't care to do in the regular season because he's a lazy f[COLOR="Black"]u[/COLOR]ck.

The Celtics three other guards on the team, Courtney Lee, Jason Terry, and Leandro Barbosa have been sucking ass this entire season. Bigtime...



I did answer the question..."right now" is regular season, which means my answer is CP3. The logic is strong in this one...

you come into a thread about who's better now, and your argument in every post you make is trying to show how good rondo is in playoffs read your own post

Paul. I don't think you can win a title with Rondo as your best player.

Rondo was arguably the best player on the Celtics 2010 run. The Celtics were 6 mins away from winning the title that year. However, not to give him moral win, but when you doubt that Rondo can be the best player on a winning team while CP3 has never been in that position, I can't see your point as being logical.

Paul

CP3 but Rondo is a great player.

[Sharmer]

CP3 by a mile, no comparison.

Paul, replace Rondo with Paul and there would have been more championships for the Celts
