Just wanted to know who you thought was the biggest surprise player so far this year. We have Ray Allen and his much improved play as he's driving more, showing more energy and playing more efficiently. Then there's a truley healthy Tony Allen providing a great spark off the bench and playing some very good D. Exactly what is needed off the bench. Rajon Rondo is scoring a little less, but he's running the team better, getting 2 more assists per game and shooting an impressive 51% from the field. He's really coming into his own. Or does no one really surprise you this year? (aka we are who we thought they were)
I voted for Tony, it's been great to see him play with such energy and make things happen on the 2nd unit. Hopefully he can be consistent all year and play the good D he's been providing.
yeah Rondo is really growing into his role, but I kinda of expected last year to give him tons of confidence and for it to show. Granted he's looking even better than I thought he would, but Allen's play off the bench is still my choice, he's looking as explosive as he was pre-injury and that's great news after losing Posey.
Rondo, it seems like he's getting close to a double-double every night, and he facilitates the offense beautifuly.
