Reader E-Mail

Saturday night around 7:00 I got an e-mail titled "Glass House". It said the following:

"This year we will see if not having a solid point guard consitantly effects the green that is the reason they went and got Sam but hopefully rhondo can make a 15 footer because we know there is a gap at that spot KG might b the best backup point and will Eddie house earn that raise or will he fall victime to the curse?????"

I'm not entirely sure if the reader knows that the Celtics are probably going to keep four point guards - House, Cassell, Rondo, and Gabe Pruitt. Regardless he is not thrilled with Boston's point guard play. Of course I'm on the record for not wanting Cassell to play meaningful minutes. Furthermore, I'm fine with House and don't know what to expect from Pruitt. Yet I understand opinions vary widely on those three. But here's the thing. Aren't we all on board with Rondo by now? He stepped up huge and kept the C's alive in the Cleveland series with some well timed 3-pointers. And the Celtics did win a championship with him. He's a plus defender, a constantly improving offensive player, 7 pounds of muscle heavier this season, and an avid roller skater. More importantly I've never thought of KG as a point. Mainly because that would be disastrous. I'd be happier with either of the Allens or Pierce first. Still I really enjoyed this e-mail. For whatever reason it got me excited for the coming season.

Why even ask that question?

Rhondo clearly did a more than adequate job running the point.

rondo

rajon is pretty great i think… i’d love to have him on my team no matter who else i had. and he would compete for the starting lineup everywhere in the league. and 9 times out of 10 he would be the starter.

I get carried away with Rondo

But he brings a ton to the table and is still getting better.

pg's in the league that are clearly better than rondo...

1. chris paul
2. deron williams
3. steve nash
4. chauncey billups

at this point jason kidd is maybe better, you could make an argument for jose calderon same for tony parker.

defnitely not mike bibby. value wise- definitely not stephon marbury…

who, derrick rose?
devin harris? pfffffffffffffffff

he’s not better than gilbert if he counts as pg. thats it really. nobody else should really be in the conversation

all i’m sayin is he is eailsy top ten pg in the game right now, and the ceilign is high.
