If you thought LBJ's defense was bad last year, the worst by far was Rondo.

If he's starting, we will be carved up like never before (and I think it'll be worse than Kendall Marshall's defense).


If Rondo ends up starting I would love a reporter with access to have Vogel explain the decision in detail. Rondo has one translatable skill left and it’s the one the starting lineup needs the least. All of the needs for that position are all areas where he is weak to extremely weak.


You guys are going to be very surprised when the RPM numbers come out next year and his drpm is near 0.


Hopefully that matches his mpg numbers

With Rondo ---I just don't understand why a player in year 14 should get the benefit of the doubt. D.Wade didn't in year 14... Bron is a different athlete.. he's also not 6'0.

We have not played a single game this season. We have not seen the role Rondo is playing for the team. We have not seen the result if Rondo, Caruso or Cook's plays this season. Don't understand why the sky is falling already, LG need to chill and let the coaches that see the whole practice decide who earns the minutes. When the real games starts, they will have more films to replace and make adjustments. Only thing we have this year is that we have players in the bench I feel confident can step and do the job. (Not a lot of question mark players Svi, Mo, Bongo, Beasley, Lance or Williams)

We have some holes we need to fix up. But those are 2 carat problems. We have AD/LBJ as the foundation and that's a great start.


You're a gem.

Good reports from KCP out of camp; he said he forgot he was a 3/D guy and now he's more focused on it I guess. It's possible we have 4 nice 3/D players. Green, Caruso, Bradley, KCP. It'd just be nice if we got 2 of these guys to play very well any given night. 12pts and defense.

The difference between KCP now and last year is that we have a better coach who can get the most out of KCP.

They hired Mike Penberthy as shooting coach.

It was also mentioned that AD has been working with Penberthy on his 3pt shot this summer.


no he was working with Lethal. Penberthy was working for the pels last season


Yes last season but this summer it was stated that AD worked with Penberthy. Cannot recall if it was a video or was printed.

negative bro Mike just got hired AD was working with Lethal before the trade was completed. Mike was hired after the trade was done.

If you look at my first comment I state this SUMMER. I know he was working with Lethal prior and may still be. I never stated AD did not work with Lethal.

Unless Handy is lying then he also worked with Penberthy on his shooting and I would assume that includes from the 3pt line as the article emphasizes this point.

He should have stated what he was focused on these past 2 years?

Probably trying to expand his game in a scorer /more dynamic role.. he turned down a massive contract before signing here a few years ago - think he wanted to live up to some high ceiling

That is a good take. Never thought of it from that angle.

Cousins just had an ACL knee surgery right?

Glad to see him still participating and around the team. You can see him walking around just fine here. Should be still in crutches or some type of brace?

man AD looking unstoppable with that crazy smooth mid range jumper that he can hit over anyone.
The pick and roll/pop game with Lebron and AD is going to murder teams. Too bad we couldnt get a stretch 5 to help give that combo more space to operate.

I am cool with the center focusing on hard work on the boards and defense over any advantage of spacing a stretch 5 provides.
