    Just shouldn’t have been out there during several key stretches. Kuz should’ve got those minutes and let Lebron run the show.

    He wasn't even that bad - and he's not the reason we lost.

    He certainly isn't helping matters, but whatever; it's the politics (reputation), that gets me; Vogel has to be smart enough to know to close the game out with others instead of Rondo...

    That's more on the coach than on Rondo; he's a 33 or 34 year (can't remember age) who's fallen off a cliff; it kind of happens...

    Clips have 2 hustle guys in Beverly and Harrell finishing for them and it shows. We needed Caruso in there instead of Rondo

    Can he just go away? We are relying on him because we have no other options at PG. I hate him like Kwame, seriously because we just don't have any one else to turn to in that slot.

    I think Vogel is scared of Rondo. He's friends with Lebron, Davis and Cousins and too scared to sit him. Rondo fails the eye and the numbers test. This is just awful.

    Time for Kidd to suit up. He can't be worse than Rondo...

    He’d probably be better, except he’d be gassed after 3-4 minutes. But yeah man, those numbers are horrific.

    If he's still playing mins late in the game it is definitely Vogel's fault. Rondo is an awful player and doesn't warrant important minutes

    One of his best games of the season IMO, mostly under control, clean passes, took the open shots, even drove to the hole and scored after blowing by his man on one play.

    I've noticed that Rondo plays extremely efficiently for the most part in limited minutes. When he exceeds 15-20 minutes is where we get into trouble. Vogel should really pay attention to that fact and figure that out. It's not hard to do. We have a lot of guards who need minutes. Limit Rondo's to keep him fresh for the playoffs, for better production per minute and to play our younger guards more and give them a proper role and increase their confidence.
