    Rajon Rondo is officially the bomb. But anyway, for the people that didn't get a chance to see the play, here is how it went down:

    Gerald Green missed an 18 footer, Rajon Rondo then makes up for it by pulling off a 1-handed putback dunk over a couple Knicks players. Wait, it gets better: Directly after the dunk, he quickly turns around and intercepts the inbounds pass, takes a dribble or two and gets to the basket, lays it up and in - PLUS THE FOUL! This all happened within 6 seconds, it was amazing.

    I didn't see that game last night, and I saw this post, so I ran downstairs as it was 5:55 at the time. I got down there just in time, and DAMN. This kid is for real, that was a better than great play.

    This was the #1 play of the week on Sportscenter today. I love the fact that instead of celebrating over the big dunk he got right back on defense for the steal.

    OK guys I found it on youtube and I edited the opening post. But man, Rondo is something huh? Not only does he play excellent all around basketball, but he does something every game that leaves a HUGE smile on your face.

    Those were some great plays. Plays like that define the NBA. That's why we all follow the game.

    This is off topic but Renton only has 265 posts? I thought I saw his name around much more than that.

A thread like "who will win most rings" or "predict playoffs standing" are threads I usually don't post in. I don't think I like the speculate all that much. Well, maybe to a certain level, that's it. Of course I'll have my say on which teams I think will have a good (or bad) season. Hmmm.... can't explain what I really want to say....

    Rondo is great at stealing the ball. In pre-season, he is 2nd behind Baron in spg, and he is only a rookie. He is going to be a lockdown defender, and great stealer in years to come..

    Rondo is just sick. I'm surprised that he can actually dunk over guys like that. He is deff a future star for the Celtics.

    Man, that was the first time I saw that clip. The dunk was spectacular and with that follow-up steal and layup, man he is pretty impressive.
