Monster game by rondo... though results would have been different if D Rose was around, still if Rajon is on his game he is really very difficult to stop as he is among the limited players in the league who can affect a game not with just his scoring....
Speaking of D Rose the conversation between Doc Rivers and Thibs when he was still weighing his options speaks volumes of not only the talent but the character of this player:
Rivers recalled a story about how Thibodeau had two teams chasing him before helping persuade him to take the Chicago job. “He actually had two jobs and I grabbed him by the shoulder and said, `Are you kidding me? You have a chance to coach Derrick Rose and you’re thinking about another job?’ Are you nuts? I actually said, `If it’s a penny to go there or $10 million to go to the other place, take the penny. In the long run you’ll be able to coach.”’
The NBA is really in good hands with young superstars like Rose, Durant and others who are not the traditional headcases...
