Rajon Rondo- Celtics Point Guard

I'm going to try to keep my partner calm during this next segment because he has already pro fast how much he admires our next guest. He is the point guard for the Boston Celtics and a guy that Michael Holley has party predicted will be the MVP of the league within the next couple of years. Rajon Rondo is with -- Rajon it's -- Michael how -- Good thing.

It felt pressured out of layers on them we give you some time. I didn't say going to be MVP of the league next year I got to somewhere around 2010 opinion of that.

I can't appreciate. -- at that eight you know we asked Paul -- this question from your perspective as the point guard this team. You've got to be very excited about the guys you're going to be thrown the ball to this year.

Definitely you know we have three out McCain and I I'm very excited I get a marble ball and -- This time of the look forward to it on a lot from.

I saw some quotes from your resign however John excuse me after the trade was made -- Al Jefferson and and Allan ray and some other guys who were no we're no longer with the Celtics old's your boy you know -- with them last year just just talk about some of the the emotions that that you experience when you found out that you are part of that trade for Kevin Garnett but that they that they work

you know without losing both could -- update a Little Rock clothes and in every Q what do guys went out -- young Adam Eaton went mulholland. We -- the camaraderie stumbled not but around it by dubious about it.

You know -- young guys -- haven't had a lot of off seasons to it to compare this with. But do you think the additions to this roster. How did you change how you were going to approach this offseason all of a sudden you're you're centenarian in July in an early August and man. I want to get back to work now I don't want to wait.

Definitely I think heroic changeup make on the being a point guard -- and if pass first point guard hit -- opportunity get the ball score the ball but we have some of it has got the ball around equal opportunity and other -- got a in the ball.

I noticed last season between I think from November. To January -- February. Defensively you seemed a little confused at times on the court but after I had -- after the all star break there was a definite switched. In your defensive intensity to what do you attribute that.

Well -- you know the -- nervous Watson not a film you know you know the fight to discourage you and you know -- and -- be -- know -- non defense. And you know -- about arms.

You don't really pick and rolls out I noticed with -- point guards and early in the season against the Celtics seemed to be a really tough. Area for for all the point -- why is it. Why is that such a tough thing in the NBA just fighting through the pick and rolls

because they're -- play you know every night you know bring -- opposition. And I -- cup -- I was period of those you know you have gotten burned out than it is. And round you know go the opposite guy can shoot the ball and even just -- without but you know we have to do the job done.

When you that when you hear the general manager of the team Danny Ainge talking about. You know maybe the only thing left on his shopping list for the offseason would be a backup point guard a veteran backup point guard the used to parenting -- I'm okay. Leave those minutes the -- needing help --

Not that now when Matt -- you know again come in and help me out 'cause like sitcoms that you're playing and -- a lot to learn as well. Another point guard that had a lot of years ago when did bad idea.

You said you're going to be a pass first point guard regardless of who's on the team. I know playing with the guys will make you more comfortable and knowing where they want the ball. How about hanging out with -- is that necessary or can you do your job without getting to know these guys as people.

Well our schedule another matter wrapping up the because rated him but he found out today on the road -- on the plane trips so you know what -- an -- know Ali's definitely you know playing cards or do anything it will -- about court together -- you know you know on court as well.

I heard her big al is a pretty fears -- player who's -- player on the team much I had to let close the game which a game

and spade who or whatever.

A percentage wise what percentage of your offseason has been spent working on your jump shot

part -- 94%.

At at at that's been that's been your big focus for the offseason has an.

It definitely you know not particular -- never jets and a lot of work on not to -- and not and opens up.

But you you know how many how many questions have you heard about as we get to the point where -- Tony well listen to people because they talk about that the jump shots so much

you know there's there's always going to be someone I'm not going to come up against so I'm not the concern -- the start I don't think. Dataquest in you know kind of that way back and so I'm still working on it a wallet olive work my game so. At one point about it worked well continued restaurants and.

You know I'm old enough a new -- release in front of me and it talks about -- Your visit to the Massachusetts society for the prevention of cruelty to children just tells about that in what is your participation

I'm very excited knows how to opportunity because children the masters that it commissioner included pitchers in because by the nick -- untrue about our work and so -- with them how much area how are aware of him -- they conjure.

You get chest play some ball with the kids still rock.

yeah -- look. But some a couple of you know point one used I don't know cup which --

You are Europe busy guy for the Celtics this week you've got the appearance on Wednesday. And then on Thursday I Agassi going to be part of the group that's going to be presenting lucky family with a brand of basketball court

yes -- bare -- equipment driveway courts building operated separately although -- that -- scoreboard you know they like as spoke on the market value.

We guarded did I -- if it and we got a piece of paper and promise that had their name on their anyway

apparently the assumption. Wellfleet you know very cornerstone goes through.

Don't worry did spoil the surprise. I like the fact that you thought about it before as it is incentives like oh to do something wrong yeah. Hey now no we admit -- helpless I was of -- formula to go now we had --

Governor on the -- and Greg meditative but on the bandwagon for a long time we we actually. Had had a rod goes along with the Rondell song has become our. Statistics on so we need another song we talk about -- we need some music to play what. Give us it was two -- three options as of songs that we should be where where.

All all of not you real natives didn't says that man forget about 2000 and the MVP it's anything in common -- now. I'm no -- shot just made his game no landmines there's this is -- rehearsed. You're telling me you're just -- yeah there are well it is. There's about me we grabbed in the got that topic you my cousin.

Our -- here we had no idea no. Ask them on the lip -- another is not Barcelona but Seattle had a particular if -- Off since it is still wrong. I'm -- well bring your sex we get we can -- label this thing now in the it's it's. Aren't I thought Darden thought this dog -- out -- is no me it till now road -- Rajon Rondo that is brought you know every time we mentioned. The point -- in question we have -- on every time but like chapter one of those 11 assist turnover games. In the 114 though mostly -- out on victory going to be at the garden for most of the season and -- is going to go off and let me think about.
