	No, I'm a Lakers fan. My neighbor is a Celtics fan who is forever busting my nuts about how great Rondo is. He didn't believe me when I told him how Rondo's shooting stats stack up against other guards in NBA history. Needless to say he was stunned when I showed him the numbers. Since everybody who has played this quiz has gotten the answer correct, it's obvious that everybody knows what a crappy shooter Rondo is. @djbaker11 - I went to my first LAL game in 1969 (Chamberlain, West, Baylor) and went to hundreds of games until the late 90s. I'll put my basketball knowledge up against yours any day. BTW, redo doesn't require a hyphen. Dumbass.

	everyone who has played this quiz has gotten the ONE answer correct because they have enough time to type in every good point guard that they know. rondo's not there to score points. he's a point guard who's job it is to run the offense and pass the ball...and this year he had a higher APG than chris paul and deron williams, finishing second to only steve nash. clearly he's doing his job right. also, is 331 games started a really fair stat to call "poor"? just because he's not old doesn't mean you can use that stat against him.

	Rondo does his job well, no doubt about that. The main point of showing his shooting numbers is that of every NBA guard who has ever played with shooting percentages similar to his, he is the only one who will not have a short career. Simply put, he can't put the ball in the basket, and most coaches won't tolerate that from a guard. Let's see what happens in a few years when the Big Three are gone, and he has to shoulder more of the scoring load. He won't be able to do it in Boston, and he'll be traded somewhere to be a bench player. Just admit it - he can't shoot the ball. There are dozens of WNBA players who would light him up in a shooting contest.

	now this is just stupid...didn't Rondo finish second to KD in the HORSE competition at this year's all star game? you don't need to have crazy good stats to be considered "good" and he's definitely not overrated. he's on of the best in the game at getting to the rim and making layups. he has highlight plays nightly and makes defenders look stupid with some of his fakes. stop being bitter and have an appreciation for talent.

	He did place second in the HORSE contest. Remind me - who was guarding him there?

	No you're an idiot because it goes beyond shooting statistics. Rondo is what makes that offense go without and say Derek Fisher at the point the Celtics they would not be nearly as good. He led the league in assists in an extremely competitive year over the likes of Steve Nash and Chris Paul. He also plays solid defense for the Celtics and the Celtics are a team that needs everyone to be committed on defense. Someone who is overrated would I don't know win NBA finals MVP while shooting 6 for 21 in game 7. Now those are some horrible shooting stats.

	duh...he's talking about SHOOTING...nothing else...get a clue...he mentions FT% FG% 3point% the people on these sites need a reading comprehension course...

	kingfish:	Apr 18th, 2011 at 14:06 GMT		3 points
	a) .486 FG% for a 4th option is not at all bad. his shot selection is usually excellent, which is why he mostly get layups/dunks. his FT% does suck though. b) he will have a long career in spite of his shooting because he's a Facilitator. Same reason why Brevin Knight and Eric Snow had such long careers despite being chronic bricklayers, only they didn't get dropped onto teams with 3 HOFers like Rondo. c) no intelligent coach should ask rondo to shoulder more scoring when the Big 3 leave, cuz he's simply not a scorer. he's best as 3rd or 4th option. d) for reference, Bob Cousy's lifetime FG% = 37.5%

	Rondo will have a long career as a decent point guard. His assist numbers will never be this high unless he ends up on some other team as loaded with shooters as the Celtics are. He will never be a great scorer or shooter (or even a decent one), and despite his high steal numbers he isn't a great defensive stopper. He is a decent point guard, nothing more, nothing less. When the big three are gone there will be no way he can compete with Derrick Rose or John Wall for an all-star spot for the East.

	Fact Check: Rondo's career FG% is higher than Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, Dwayne Wade, and Carmelo Anthony(Kobe's is the lowest of that group - deal with it). I guess we should fault Rondo for taking high-percentage shots instead of mindlessly chucking the ball from anywhere on the court like Kobe does. If you take enough shots, you're going to get your 25-30 points, so matter how bad a shooter you are (see Kobe). Oh and by the way, I am not a Rondo fan and I hate the Celtics. I just have to call you out for being an idiot.
