Hudson impresses Coach Rondo

Rajon Rondo is in Orlando helping with some of the coaching of the guards.  One guard in particular… Lester Hudson… has already impressed Coach Rondo.

Rondo has already formed a definite impression about some of the
newcomers, including Lester Hudson. The point guard was impressed by
the rookie’s ability to get down the floor on time to disrupt a
home-run pass intended for Bill Walker.

“That was a hell of a collision,” Rondo said. “That kind of showed
Danny and the others that he deserves a spot on the team. He is very
talented – very gifted.”

He's also impressed with free-agent guard Bryan Mullins.

“I have my offensive and defensive teams with this group, and he’d be
my point guard on the offensive team,” said Rondo. “It shows on the
court. . . . He never stops. He just keeps going out there.”

As for how Rondo is doing as a coach.  Doc says it's good for Rondo to experience what he goes through.

“It’s good for him to see all of the workings of the league – not just
as a player,” said Rivers. “Yesterday he drew up a play, the guys went
out and turned it over, and I said, ‘There you go. Now you know how it
feels.’ ”

I think this will be good for Rondo.  Nice for him to see the game from both sides.
