Rajon Rondo: The clown is in the hall, the master is wandering

Rondo is the most tactical player in the league today, which is recognized. In more than ten years of expedition career, Rondo's jaw-dropping tactical performance on the court has impressed countless people. So many people also think that Rondo's two championships are well-deserved. Although he didn't win the championship as the main starting player when he was with the Lakers.

But it is strange that Rondo, who has championship experience, changes teams frequently. It stands to reason that a defender with championship experience and an outstanding player should be a popular figure pursued by many teams. Even if he can't start because of his physical fitness, he can at least have a stable playing time. You know, when there is no chance of timeout, a guard who can act as a coach can directly decide the score of the key round. Rondo is this role for the team, so why are there so many teams putting Rondo on the shelves?

The answer is very simple, the Rongda is not as expected. For every player who will be traded by the team, the reason is pure. Either the asking price is too high, or the team finds a better candidate. In the eyes of most teams, Rondo's golf quotient can not make up for his shortcomings. So even with the experience of a championship, it still doesn't get enough attention.

Let’s first talk about the advantages of Rondo. Let me first talk about an old topic, Rondo's organizational ability. Rondo's ability to organize and respond is derived from his understanding of tactics. There are countless tactics in his mind that can be adjusted in the shortest time. This is also the place where a qualified point guard fears the opponent the most. Their reaction ability is so strong that they can be calm at most critical moments and resolve every round reasonably. Why Dongcic will be recognized as one of the superstars in the future is because his performance in this aspect is different from that of ordinary people.The same was true for the early Rondo.

In addition, Rondo's wingspan is very long, which will have a greater rebound advantage among players at the same position. Sometimes we jokingly call Rondo the Long center for this reason. His desire for victory is reflected in his rebounding every time. This is very similar to Guangdong Hongyuan’s Xu Jie . This kind of player, no matter which team he is placed on, his sense of existence will not be weak.

Rondo is really strong in the playoffs. Like many stars, Rondo's ability can only be truly reflected in the playoffs. The playoffs are more intense and require more tactics. Because everyone started to do it with a real sword. When the players and stars are of the same quality, which team has a higher tactical level, which team has a greater chance of winning. What's more, according to the character of Long's guidance that only wants to win, he has a spirit of 120 points at all times. This professional attitude is not comparable to ordinary players.

After talking about the advantages, it is time to talk about the disadvantages. Rondo hasn't stayed behind a team all the time, it's essentially his own character. On the technical level, let’s talk about it later, let’s talk about his paranoid pitch personality. Since the Celtic period, Rondo has a strong desire to win and almost paranoid execution. If this kind of character is only limited to himself, then Rondo may become a teammate that everyone wants to cooperate with. The reality is that Rondo's requirements for his teammates are almost paranoid.

in Pierce, Garnett and others were Celtic bosses, and Rondo dared to openly call 3span and Ray Allen. Garnett, and the reason is only because Garnett did not run the tactics as Rondo asked.A player who is not qualified enough to point fingers at the veteran of the team and change to someone else has already started. The reason why there was no conflict before the championship was due to the iron discipline within the Celtics. Otherwise, in accordance with the hot personality of the wolf king, he will hammer Rondo on the ground every minute.

After winning the championship, the Celtics management also knew that this gunpowder keg should not stay long. Now that he has achieved the desired result, it is better to send away the Plague God in advance. After the disintegration of the Big Three, Rondo's importance to the Celtics is getting less and less. It was also from that time that Rondo started his wandering career in the league. The Mavericks (Lone Ranger) Bishop Carlisle also said that for the first time he felt the fear of being dominated by a player. Rondo is extremely confident in his tactics, so he often conflicts with the coach's tactical philosophy. This kind of uncomfortable performance directly or indirectly caused Rondo to be unable to stay in a team for long.

Secondly, let's talk about Rondo's own strength. Rondo's shortcomings are also obvious. As a defender, Rondo's shooting percentage is always not ideal. In other words, Rondo is only suitable to be a pure organizer. If you want him to score, that's a dead heart. Rondo's hands are too big, which will seriously interfere with his shooting stability. Shooting shots are fast, accurate and ruthless. Rondo's palm is too big, and at the last moment, he always interferes with the basketball that has been shot intentionally or unintentionally, which leads to a drop in his shooting rate.

In the peak season, Rondo's free throw percentage was only 64%. For a defender, this result is definitely not qualified. Moreover, Rondo can almost be said to have no three-point ability, and his three-point threat is similar to that of an inside player. If the team didn't really need an organizer, the threat of a coach changing for any shooter would be far greater than Rondo.

There is another point, now Rondo no longer meets the needs of the alliance. The mainstream needs of most teams now are: 3D players, centers that can organize and support,Or a point guard with mid-range shooting ability. Obviously, Rondo was not satisfied. To be honest, Rondo’s condition is that there is room for survival at the end of the interior era. With the deepening of magic ball theory, the playing requirements of the small ball era have excluded Rondo, who is not good at shooting defenders. , His final capital is his championship experience and the tactical ideas that everyone is still willing to accept. There is nothing else.

The current mainstream view is: If Rondo's organizational skills and ball quotient are not too strong, under his conditions, he may not even be able to hit the ball. Although this is a bit extreme, it also makes sense. Rondo's innate advantage made it impossible for him to fall to the point where he could not play without the ball, but his personality, physical talent, ability and other aspects are all determined, and Rondo is unlikely to reach a high level. For Rondo, being able to get two championship rings is already very good.
