Ask the Czar

Jimmy B from Boston asked:

Which former NBA point guard does Celtic Rajon Rondo remind you of?

I think Rajon Rondo is unique because of his ability to get on the boards and be such a huge contributor with rebounds for his team. Rondo has an incredible ability to find the open man with his pass. And defensively he can terrorize the opposing point guard with his quick hands, steals and deflections.

Early on there were a number of skeptics who said that Boston would never win a championship with Rondo starting at the point guard position because he doesn’t have an outside shot. But with Rondo at the helm, the Celtics clinched the NBA Title in 2008 and nearly nabbed another last season. So he’s proved his critics wrong in that regard.
