    So you saying CP3 aint a prototypical pg?

    CP3 does everything better then Rondo..

    Shoot
    Dribble
    Pass
    DFF

    Hell CP3 top 5 player in the League IMO

    Yes CP3 does all of these things better...but im factoring in size, durability and length relative to all the other PGs in the game......id even put Rondo on a cpl SG's in certain situations, cant say the same for CP3....i dont necessarily think CP3 is a better defender than Rondo either but he can play the passing lanes a bit better....Rondo can be just as chippy as CP3 and u need that for a PG as well....CP3 prolly has the best handles in the game tho as he rarely turns the ball over and he got flashy handles enough to cross dudes so that should count for something....

    If we just talking the basics like rebounding, passing, defense and size, minus the offensive repertoire, Rondo is the prototypical PG imo

    Yea Rondo can hold his own on most 2 guards and sometimes on weaker SF's.

    Shaq Trippin.. Rondo is a very good pg sans the shooting,, idk why people are so down on him overall, hes one of the top 3 passers in the game, a very good rebounder/defensive guard


    But CP3 has ever- ry thang... ever-ry thang

    Shaq has a "Crazy ? I can say to get attention" list.

    He just scratched "Chris Paul Is Not Better Than Rajon Rondo" off it.

    i think it goes CP3>Deron>Rondo in terms of PG
    Deron is slept on for some reason even when he was in Utah ballin every season

    U know what I didn't even take in consideration is that wit so much focus on Garnett, Pierce and Allen that da 11 ppg that he does get is mainly easy buckets from them 3 bein' double teamed and him benefitting wit a open lane slash to da hole.

    CP3 is doin' what he does wit scrubs. Yall saw what da Hornets was doin' when he was injured. Just terrible.

    If Boston had cp3 at the point last year they would have made the finals.Rondo is a good pg but he can't shoot.
    The d can sag off because of that & help on KG & Paul.If do that ? with CP3 he is going to light your ass up

    And they would have Kick the Lakers ass the previous season as well, Rondo that year Was brickin mid range shots and got to the point where he wouldnt'even shoot it dude just back off and Rondo would just look around

    Like u said u Give Paul that he cookin you easy

    CP3 Doesn't need to score to be who he is, the fact is he HAS to score for his team cuz he aint got the best around him as a team

    I think we all need to thank Shaq for given us something to talk about, it's been a while, when you come into a thread and see damn near everbody on the same page.(agreeing)

    Rondo is somewhere around the 4th, 5th or 6th best point guard in the league, he's not overrated because just about everyone has him around there.

    Nah, this can't be serious. He must have been playing. I can understand having a ludicrous opinion like Rondo>>CP3, cause ? on here have dumb opinions like that, but the playoffs line??? That's Barkley levels of stupidity.

    Oh and btw CP3 >>>>Rondo in Every stat period. Rondo is one of the worst PG ever tbh. He can't shoot past 20 feet, can't shoot free throws, can't score, and is no threat on offense.

    CP3 is probably the best pure pg in the league. Rondo isn't even in the conversations.

    Rose, CP3, and D Will are all better in my opinion heck maybe even Parker as well. Rondo is a good floor generally but a liability on offense with that suspect jumpshot. CP3 is the most complete point guard in the league, but I think Rose is the better player if that makes any sense at all.
