Why, oh why, do I read articles from websites I've never heard of? And, why, oh why, would YardBarker promote such a factless, ridiculously written article like the one I just read. Folks, prepare your brain to filter out a load of bogus claims regarding Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo.
12) Celtic Fan will stick their fingers in their ears over this, but there's a real good chance that he's actually the fourth best point guard for international play on the roster
11) Has family issues that just happened, through incredible coincidence, to correspond with going from first to third string
10) To echo the great Garry Templeton, if he ain't startin', he is departin'
9) Not comfortable with increasing the number of continents that are aware of his lack of a jump shot
8) Like so many college foreign exchange students before him, he was irrevocably exposed by Lithuania
7) Point guards that don't make free throws generally aren't, well, point guards
6) Didn't get a good feeling about being one of the better team rebounders
5) Just remembered that he plays for a team of dinosaurs, that his season didn't end until mid-June, and that he'll be getting 40+ minutes a game just to clinch a home playoff series next year
4) It was coming down to him or Chauncey Billups for the last roster spot, which is to say, against a guy who actually can shoot
3) If you had to listen to Mike Krzyewski, you'd most likely quit, too
2) Now realizes that there's no pot of endorsement gold at the end of a FIBA championship rainbow
1) He's the last man in the NBA to really hate his opponents, which means that co-habitation with Lamar Odom is just a deal breaker.
Can you believe this load of crap? Is this guy really trying to sit there and tell me that Eric Gordan is better than Rondo? I hope not. And where is he getting this information that Rondo was battling with Chauncey for the final roster spot? Last time I checked Chauncey was a lock, given his veteran experience.
Anyways, I thought you might be interested in reading this bogus so there ya go. I debated not even linking back to this guys site because it's such bogus, but I did what's politically correct and will probably throw him a few hits because of it. Oh well.
