Why is everyone so pissed off at Rajon Rondo?

February 11, 2012
Here are some of the comments our readers directed at Rajon Rondo following his lifeless, 5 point (2-10 FG), 7 assist, 5 turnover performance last night vs Toronto:
Alex: I'm telling you right now... Rondo is the weakest link. That kid is painful to watch. His lack of effort surprises me and you would think he'd have a chip on his shoulder for not making the All-Star team...

Twitter / @SpearsNBAYahoo: Celtics guard Rajon Rondo ... via kwout
Yes! Sit back and rest, Rajon. Take some time off. Fly to the Bahamas for a couple of days. Get plenty of sleep. Maybe some deep tissue massage.
In all honesty, Rondo's injury derailed the All Star train anyway. He missed too much time to really be a legitimate contender for a spot.

Refs missed Rondo calling time out on last play of regulation

February 10, 2012
So I was watching the last play of the game to see what happened and whether the Celtic could have gotten a better shot. What I saw, though, was something that the referees missed and it should have given the Celtics a chance at a better look to end the game.
With 2.4 seconds left, Rajon Rondo sees Paul Pierce is in trouble. He immediately begins signaling for a time out...

Raptors 86, Celtics 74: Make it two straight hideous defeats

February 10, 2012
The Boston Celtics took more than two minutes to score, and when they did, their first two points were the result of a bogus foul call. An off-balance Kevin Garnett jump shot bounded off the backboard and almost smacked Mickey Mouse, chilling on his couch down in Florida, more than 1,000 miles away, straight between the eyes, but Garnett was sent to the foul line and made both free...

Vote: Would You Trade Rajon Rondo for Pau Gasol?

February 08, 2012
Rajon Rondo's name won't stop coming up in trade rumors, and Pau Gasol was all but dealt to the Mavericks this past offseason. Are the Celtics and Lakers now so willing to trade their stars that they'll consider swapping them in a deal? Well, that's the latest rumor, as reported by HoopsWorld's Eric Pincus. And it's a juicy one at that. The Celtics have reportedly...

Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett's improved play of late has put the Celtics into posistion to make some noise
The Celtics were 5-9 after losing the Phoenix Suns on January 20th. It was one of the lowest moments of the Boston Celtics season so far. They looked old and banged up and it looked like the end of the Boston Celtics Big Three. Kevin Garnett wasn’t playing up to the...

After every game, we'll take stock of how each individual performance affects the player's overall value.
Starters
Rajon Rondo: A 14-to-1 assist to turnover ratio is pretty damn good. Most of his passes were crisp and he played under control the entire night. No signs of rust from the wrist injury.
Paul Pierce: I generally don't hand out praise to a player...

I often wonder what opposing teams, their beat reporters and bloggers are saying about the Celtics after playing the Celtics. Here's a dose of 'enemy chatter' from Los Angeles.
The Lakers survived because the Celtics couldn't take advantage of another weak offensive output. Ray Allen hit some shots early, and one big three late, but Paul Pierce could only manage...
