Note that the same words were used at various times to describe Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, and even Kevin Garnett. As well as many other players who turned out to be pretty good (Robert Parish, Kevin McHale, Danny Ainge, Antoine Walker, and Dennis Johnson among others wearing the Green).wutang112878 said:Rondo is a moody and sometimes very immature dude. I wouldn't read too much into his tone or insinuations.
But the point stands: never read anything into what Rondo, or most other NBA players, are saying when they make vaguely worded statements about their future, and especially about aspects about which they have limited or no control (such as where Rondo could be traded this summer). Rondo's next contract is going to be at least $10M/yr and probably at least 4 years. Anyone who thinks otherwise is delusional about what experienced (albeit young) starters make in the NBA.
