2010. KG was coming off a knee surgery and had his worst season as a Celtic and Pierce was mediocre throughout the entire Playoff run. Rondo was easily the teams best player at that point, especially since he was playing out of his mind that postseason.

Rondo is one of the most overrated players ever. Most of the time teams don't even play defense on him and his top ppg average in his career is 13.7. He cant lead one of the most stacked teams in the league to above .500. Once Garnett and Pierce retire, Boston will be one of the worst teams with Rondo as their leader.

Being stacked with soft jump shooters doesn't make your team good.

Wouldn't you consider 16ft-3pt midrange? anyhow, Rondo has taken 1 less shot from that range than CP3. Free throws Rondo has always bee awful at, but he's at a career high .647 this year.
PER has little to do with shooting. My reply was aimed at Sharmer, CP3 is the better player.

Actually, that's a huge reason as to why the Celtics are .500, not just because of Rondo's weaknesses. Unlike you, I have watched Celtics games this season.
Re: Right now, who is the better overall player: Chris Paul or Rajan Rondo?
I don't know why you guys think Rondo is great, but he pads his assists. Like he is all up ahead on the other end all alone for an easy layup yet passes to a guy behind for a contested layup. That shit's messed up right there. Those are just empty stats.
I'll definitely want a guy who can actually take over games when it matters. CP3 all the way.
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 fuck.
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...

In 2010 he was arguably our best player. He was clearly our best player in the Cavs Series and was good in the Magic series. However, in the Finals everyone but Glen Davis played poorly iirc.
