Rondo doesn't think IT deserves a Celtics tribute: "What has he done?"

Rondo, who received a tribute video from the Celtics upon his arrival back in 2015, said the former Celtics guard who is now with the Cavaliers didn’t do enough for Boston to deserve the recognition.


quote:

“What has he done?” Rondo asked the Worcester Telegram & Gazette when asked what he thought.


quote:

“This is the Boston Celtics,” Rondo said. “This isn’t the Phoenix Suns; no disrespect to any other organization, but you don’t hang conference titles. Do we hang going to the conference finals? What do we hang here?”

Rondo has a point. Not like IT was a lifelong Celtic...only played there 3 seasons. But kind of a douche move by Rondo to say it publicly.

Dude's getting a 3-5 minute tribute video, not having his freaking jersey retired.

It's just a video, not a banner or an award or anything that will hang in the rafters. Don't see why PP and now Rondo are even giving it a second thought.

Exactly. CC has won more titles than the Celtics since the 90s and gave Pat Bev one.

It's good PR. Good player relations. Fills a commercial break for fans in the building.

It's just petty to object.

LOL this is hilarious coming from the player who I believe was the 4th wheel on that Celtics team that only won 1 NBA title when they probably should've three-peated, Isaiah revitalized that franchise's expectation for greatness in his 2 seasons there considering how putrid that team was in the post-Big 3 era. That being said, IT shouldn't receive a video tribute that conflicts with a bonafide Celtic legend like Paul Pierce's jersey retirement in any respect, that's on him in the end.

This is the problem. If he just did it on a random night that wasn’t associated with a big deal for a big time Celtics player it wouldn’t matter. Rondo is probably taking up for Pierce also.

Rondo gives zero fricks. He's also right about this.
