"He got all excited afterward. I told him to learn how to make a shot."-- Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle, describing his response after losing to Rondo in Connect Four

is there even a 5% chance the lakers max out rondo?
― pandemic, Wednesday, 8 April 2015 21:21 (nine years ago) link
ain't gonna lie I'd love to see him on the lakers next year. I mean I wouldn't actually watch the games, but I'd get a kick out of reading about it a few times during the course of the season.
― pandemic, Wednesday, 8 April 2015 21:24 (nine years ago) link
downsides: lakers are guaranteed moribund for at least 3 years, it's the fucking lakers, it would guarantee that his bizarro free-jazz style would never be implemented in a working system
upsides: he might get into actual physical fights and cause real damage to byron, kobe and perhaps jim buss if he can remember where the stadium is & comes to games

(Rondo's Connect Four prowess has since become legendary and has made for heartwarming-yet-awkward community outreach moments. The day he was traded to Dallas in December, he spent his final hours as a Celtic at Boston Children's Hospital, crushing all comers in the game, repeatedly telling kids, "No mercy.")

if it had touched on the free throw issues more deeply that would have been the definitive rondo article.

JVG is firmly in the top-16-teams playoff idea, mjax is not, it's calmed down now but at one point JVG shouted at Jackson after a typical Jackson platitude about balance, "now you're just throwing out cliche terms!" and mjax didn't talk for a good 4 mins after, I just imagine him seething and grumbling

how many teams wanna play spurs first round, even with home court? how many feel confident beating em 4 times right now? GS is probably it.
