“He’s a leader,” coach Doc Rivers
said as Rondo led the Celts against the Los Angeles Clippers last
night. “He’s obtained that this year, and that’s all off-the-court
stuff. His on-the-court (performance) alone has made him an All-Star in
my opinion, but we’ll see.”……“He has a lot more confidence in himself,” House said. “You know,
when he steps on the court he feels like that guy. When you have that
confidence in yourself and you go out and prove it night in and night
out, people have to take notice. That’s what he’s doing. He’s proving
it.
“That comes with his confidence. He’s been given the reins. For a
time you’re not sure, but now it’s like, OK, go. He has that green
light. He’s playing freely. He’s getting guys the ball and he’s making
the plays. He does what he wants. He’s just playing basketball at an
extremely high level.”……“I think he’s taken another step,” [Ray] Allen said. “He’s definitely an
aggressor out there. He’s letting people know that, ‘Hey, don’t just
sit there and think I’m chopped liver. You’ve got to guard me, and
you’ve got to guard me every play down the floor.’
What more can I add that hasn't been said already? Just go vote Rondo already!
