Rajon Rondo: A King Once More

Guess who’s back, back again… Rondo’s back, tell a friend.

If you ask 10 different people for their opinion on Rajon Rondo, you will invariably receive 10 vastly different responses. Should the person in question be a Celtics fan, you’ll hear reminiscing over the glory days of the original “Big Three” and fond remembrance of the urban legend that was “Playoff Rondo.” If you’ve asked a person who happens to be a member of the media, they’ll fill you in on his well-documented difficult personality.

And if you’ve asked a Mavericks fan, they will likely inform you quite bitterly of the more recent edition of playoff Rondo, the one who effectively flamed out in the 2014 Western Conference playoffs, offering the meager contribution of 19 points, six assists, and two rebounds over two games.
