    This is a terrible point. Until this season, a Derrick Rose v Rajon Rondo discussion was very valid and hardly dumb, and the rush to overrate players is just part of being a sports fan these days. Let's be real about it too, Rondo has won a championship and last season had an unbelievable run in the playoffs carrying an aged squad to the brink of another ring. He rightly got a lot of love based on that and the fact that he plays in front of a very loyal and obnoxiously vocal fanbase. I love the over the top F RONDO! movement by Bulls fans because in conjunction with my crazy Rose love it allows me to tap into a meatball fan part of my brain that I haven't been able to do for years and years. That doesn't mean I don't think the Rondo/Celtics hate isn't silly. It is. Rondo is a really good basketball player, but has never had the ceiling that Derrick does and now Derrick actually is part of a team that is better than his, so the weird stat cherry-picking and vitriolic inferiority complexes should probably be dropped harder than a D Rose breakaway dunk on Rondo's head because they're just silly at this point. It's pronounced meathead.

    Yes I admit I rage about your favorite collection of frauds, cowards, and pussies from time to time. I just hate them all so much.

    Higher FG% from 16-23 feet than Rose. Rose: 08-09: 43% (13th) 09-10: 44% (5th) 10-11: 38% (21st) Rondo: 08-09: 40% (22nd) 09-10: 33% (35th) 10-11: 41% (10th) Actually not bad. Rose has still hit more (and take a crap more and has been assisted on a lot less) over a 3 year period. These are pretty meaningless in a vacuum. Rondo maybe approaches competence in one situation and that's where is completely wide open for a midrange J. On every other platform he is one of the worst shooters (as a guard at least) in the history of the league.

    I'm just illustrating a point that that percentage number you cited is completely irrelevant. I mean we're not really going to entertain the idea that they are comparable at all as shooters are we
  7. SpongeWorthy
    If your life depended on either Rondo or Rose making an open jumper from 16-23 feet who would you pick
  8. SpongeWorthy
    There's nothing outdated at all about that Rondo flowchart. The guy is actually getting worse as a shooter.

    Bloops

    Rose is a better defender than Rondo though.

    You deserve to be kicked in the nuts. First, just for being a Duke fan, and second, for even having the gall to try to claim that! And then again for being a Duke fan. I'm no random Duke fan. There's a good reason I'm a Duke fan. Raping strippers?

    Lets not pretend your cow poke town wont make Collison mayor (has to be white tho) if t th e Thunder win it all. true story: before last season he complained on twitter about how hot it was in oklahoma and one of our fat ass radio guys went on a crusade against him for like a month True story: your idea of fun times is rounding up some queers to tie to the back of the pickup
  17. SpongeWorthy
    Let us end the charade that anything good happens when someone besides Rose initiates offense
  18. SpongeWorthy
    Hibberts a joke

    Vogel looks like Colin Cowherd which is why ssr is rooting for Indiana.

    No, not even close. The 1995-96 Bulls went 72-10, 14-1 in the playoffs, and then tanked a couple to win at home. MJ just wanted to win the title on Father's Day because he's such a swell guy

    Rose will get a lot of FTAs against any team that employs that defensive strategy against him whether they're one of the teams that gets favorable treatment from the refs or not. He was getting into the lane at will. I expect Miami, Boston, LA, et. al. to take the ball out of his hands by trapping outside the 3 point line and showing on most screens.

    All in all though, probably the best group of playoff opening games I can ever remember.
