    Rondo is more of a pure point guard..Nelson is more of a scoring point guard

    A better way to look at it could be asking yourself this question, could Nelson have took the Celtics to a ring a couple years ago instead of Rondo? I dont think he couldve. Rondo's length is what separates the two and is what contributes to that incredible D that BOS plays.

    Rondo thinks he's better than he actually is. But what he is is still better than Jameer.

    But Jameer was an all-star last year before he was hurt and Rondo was not. I think that Jameer might be a better floor general eventually - but Rondo is definitely more athletic.

    Well, I'm prob the most at liberty to answer this... Huge Celtics fan, and Orlando is the "home team" here in Tampa, and I have league pass, so I watch all the Celts games and Magic games Regularly.... Rondo is by far the better all around Point Guard..... The only real argument for Jameer can be for his scoring abilties.. and Jameers game improved 10 fold last season before he got hurt, but he's still not the natrual PG Rondo is, even though Rondo still makes bonehead plays.. and that All-Star argument is just retarded because there was no way they were going to select 4 players from one team, if he was on any other team, he would have made it.. And trust me the best is yet to come from Rondo, where I think Jameer may have hit his peaked out last year.. I think he can maintain the year he started to have last year, but I don't think he can really get much better.. where Rondo has a way higher ceiling at this point.... So, to answer the question.. Rondo....

    I think gillabong's point was that Jameer has had these options his entire stay in Orlando.

    Rondo imo...although he is not NEAR as good defensively as people give him credit for.

    If Rondo isn't gambling on steals he is the best point guard defender in the league. You must not watch basketball.
