they probably could've beaten okc in the finals this year had they won g7 v. heat in ecf. in which case rondo probably would've been fmvp. a lot of "if's" though
g7 OR g6... remember Boston went up 3-2 gainst the heat... Lebron with 0 rings, with all the pressure, just obliterated us those two games. As a celtic fan I'll never forget that series. The shot that Pierce made over Lebron on game 5 to put us up 3-2, I thought that was it... but then Lebron took it away from us.
I'm a Celtic fan since 2006-2007, and this playoffs run was special. The title run was incredible, 2010 as well, but this one was like a Last Dance, KG did an incredible playoffs, reminded of Vintage KG at times, Rondo was at his Prime Prime Prime, Pierce was still clutch as f*ck this three pointer against LeBron in game 5 would have been remember since today if we have won the series. If you look at the stats of Rondo, you may say, it's poor compared to today's game, but man, it was back when defense was hard ! The 76ers were 8th seed but they were 3th in defensive rating ! The fact that he made a triple double in a game 7 against a team like this, with 11-4-3 in the fourth, against Jrue Holiday (a young Jrue Holiday but still a elite perimeter defender) is an impressive performance !
You are absolutely right. Danny Ainge made a huge mistake in not keeping Tony Allen in the 2010 offseason because that's when Lebron went to Miami. So you had Lebron and Wade on the same team and he lets go one of the best defensive players in the league for like a million dollars difference that Memphis offered him. Brilliant! What were you thinking Danny?? Then he traded Perkins 6 months later and as a result Miami went to the basket all day against the Celtics weakened defense in the 2011 playoffs. Also Wade did the dirty takedown of Rondo in that series. Also in the 2010 finals game 7 Doc let Tony Allen waste away on the bench (5 minutes playing time) while Ray Allen ran himself ragged covering Kobe (he did a good job on him) and as a result Ray went 3 for 14 shooting and they scored only 79 points! Doc what were you thinking??
Look at the defense the Celtics use to play. Even when they had poor shooting nights like this game, they made sure the other team would too. The damn score to start the 4th quarter is 57-54 that’s a average half time score in today’s league
All time ! Rondo has two rings, but as a Franchise Player, he did more than Kyrie ever done !!! Kyrie didn't even pass the second round as the main guy
I remember this game and that 3. To this day when I see this video and Rondo pulling up with no hesitation and the "Bang" I get goosebumps.
Hall of fame deserving rajon rondo

Rondo was amazing as usual in the playoffs. Was Igoudalla on that 76ers team?
@@jamespenny9482 yep
@@jamespenny9482 Yep. So was Holiday and Turner
Still watching Rajon Rondo Highlights
HoF. One of the best ever.
@@jamespenny9482 agree he deserves Hall of Fame 💯
Boston my team Rondo was my favorite player.
Who’s here after Evan Turner talking about this game
What did he say? That was a pretty good Philly team: Brand, Igoudalla, Holiday, Turner.
Their face when rondo had to shoot his free throws killed me
I miss this Celtics team
Rondo
Allen
Pierce
Bass
Garnett
He was the leader of that team.
If only this team stayed healthy they could've easily got 2-3 rings. Maybe 4.

Rondo's 3ple doubles comes naturally.
Uncut gems 😂😂
My favorite PG
Chris Paul man
@@RetrokidBeatmakerYou Chris Paul guys, what did he ever do that compares with Rondo, especially PLAYOFF Rondo??
Prime Rajon Rondo

The scoring in this game was not unusual for the time tbh
Its still pretty high compared to the early 2000s were final scores were around 60s-70s
This is the game where I became a Celtics fan
This hurts me like nothing else
Iggy like champion in 2015 and 2017 and amazing runs to the finals one mvp
he was fun to watch
Classic match
if he plays like this for the Lakers.....look out....Lakers with Rondo and LeBron...
Man this was the last year and last shot that the C's could've won a championship.
It’s all entertainment
Oh what could've been if he only improved his shooting
A young Sisyphus he was better offensively in kings but he just is more locked in during playoffs
If only? They won a championship didn't they?
wow, I had no recollection of this being a game Boston could've actually lost.
draymond green stole bass face

+Kawhi KD gonna join the Spurs after the Pelicans sweep the Warriors in the first round
Patty man your crazy but I love it
@@kawhileonard8468 Since your a Spurs fan, sorry to hear about the whole Kawhi thing.
Rajon Rondo>Kyrie Irving... as a Celtic
Not even close
All time !
Rondo has two rings, but as a Franchise Player, he did more than Kyrie ever done !!! Kyrie didn't even pass the second round as the main guy
Rondo absolutely better than Kyrie. Rondo criminally underrated. HoF.
Rondo Hall of Fame, you hear me?
Bro KG was free money back then damn
Audio is delayed
wow
Now you be lucky to see em score 14
NBA just not want Sixers vs Heat ECF
This didn't actually happen, because remember, Rondo can't shoot! 😏
foot was on the line for the 3
Lavar Ball lol watch the whole video, they counted it as a 2 after
