Rajon Rondo says the Lakers might be the best organization he’s ever played for, and that the team’s young core watches more film than he’s ever seen.

Love it. Until now, I had never even considered Rondo being a former Celtic as an additional subplot when the two teams square off. I had only considered LeBron vs Kyrie.

Man, playing Boston on Christmas would've been so much more interesting to me than playing the Warriors.

I want a June 2020 Lakers v. Celtics Finals with Lebron stealing every masshole's soul as the Lakers even up the all-time championships mark at 17. Rondo - re-signed as a steady veteran backup - can drink champagne in the TD Garden visitor's locker room after the Lakers four game sweep of his former team.

We can have a Lakers/Boston finals this year depending on how good the young players are on the team or rather someone like AD or Kawhi becomes available to put the team on top.

Man this Rondo guy is an obsessive killer. I really hope his attitude rubs off on the young core in a positive way.

Rondo killed it in the first half. Either LeBron or Rondo needs to be in the game at all times.

Great half. He makes it look so easy. Must be nice to be able to palm the ball.

He would be a great floor general for the 2nd unit. That's what that unit need when you have crazies like Lance/Beasley.

Drives too deep, overpasses. I don't think the shooters are re-locating to give him any more angles, but teams are just always playing him for the pass. Was stellar with McGee because he feinted the pass and went right to the cup. Gambled too much though. His age is showing. Mixed bag. Bad in the 4th, in crucial possessions honestly.

He played excellent the first three quarters and then turned into a TO machine in the 4th. I think all that running had his legs tired to close the game. Another reason why it's such an asinine strategy

He was asked to do too much. It'll be nice when Lonzo is healthy. Will take some of the load off of him.
Luke should think about staggering his minutes with LBJ. They can both start if Luke wants. But pull Rondo early and let him lead the bench when LBJ rests. But we'll need a healthy Lonzo if that's the plan. Otherwise Hart and KCP will have to play more minutes (which is tough with our fast paced system).

13 points and 11 assists. I think he got tired towards the end but he had an overall good game and kept us in.
