The Los Angeles Lakers just acquired Dennis Schroder through a trade, which also means that veteran Rajon Rondo is leaving the team. Rondo proved himself in the playoffs and helped the Lakers win again. Rondo could only get the maximum salary last season, Rondo jumped out of the contract to test the free market, looking for a big contract for the elderly. Rondo has been in this league for 14 years, but his career salary is only 110 million US dollars, which is not in line with his status. After his dazzling performance in the playoffs, the outside world once again realized the value of Rondo's veteran, and many teams are willing to sign Rondo with a three-year contract of 24 million.
Rondo's potential next home includes the Eagles, Clippers and other teams lacking organizational core, but some American experts said that if the Boston Celtics are willing to sign with him, Rondo is willing to give up salary and choose to fall back to the roots. The Celtics' first backup point guard is Wanamaker, an older European Taobao player with average ability. Wanamaker is more than stable, lacks impact, and lacks the ability to change the rhythm of the game. As the first backup point guard of the strong playoff teams, he still has a certain gap. Rondo has repeatedly performed amazing performances at critical moments last season, and his playoff experience can always help the Lakers break through the dilemma.
Rondo can also sit in the locker room to help the Celtics stabilize the uneasy factors. Marcus Smart has always been an irritable player. He yelled and accused his teammates in the locker room after losing the second game of the Eastern Conference Finals. The Celtics are young players, no one dares to discipline Smart. Smart also often does things beyond his ability on the court, but because of his high status on the team, even the head coach Stevens is afraid to discipline. In the new season of Smart, Rondo is the leader of the Celtics. If Rondo is on the team, Smart would not refuse to accept it, nor would he dare to act recklessly. Z1z
Although Rondo helped the Lakers win the championship, he has always been a Celtics. Sometimes in interviews, he unconsciously said about our team. Rondo assisted the Big Three to win the championship and helped the team fight James in the East for many years. He was the old captain of the Celtics and a youthful memory of a generation of Celtics fans. If he can wear the Boston jersey again, Rondo will be willing to go.
Rondo's role and the idea of returning to Boston need not be repeated, but it is not easy to sign him again. The Celtics are currently only able to offer a mini middle class, which is not in line with Rondo's worth. Money is still secondary. Rondo is a player with strong self-esteem. After being traded away by the Celtics, he was a little dissatisfied. If Angie wants to sign him again, he must be respected enough to have a chance.
