Is Rajon Rondo a dirty player?

[celtsxpatsxsox]

dude if you simply throw and elbow its a suspension you know throwing a punch also is a suspension regardless if it lands...
So that picture is what fictional I tell you bout you Beaners (Beantown)... You're so delusional man, I would expect a suspension from Chicago if we did it and wouldnt argue it but damn man yall think everything is good that yall do up there I need to come there quick.... I need to feel that way.... But then again I am in Ann Arbor where the same thing occurs

um...already said Rondo probably should of had a suspension. But the thing is you broght up Dwight Howard and about how he got suspended and Rondo didnt. And they said Howard didnt get tossed because they thought he missed. So if Rondo missed what difference would that be if Dwight missed.

hmm but maybe its just me but Im used to a mans sport(hockey) where there can actually be contact and no one bitches.

My goodness, fellas.

Rondo had ONE dirty play, and that was the throw into the scoreboard. What he did on Miller was just someone trying to stop a game tying layup. Every NBA player will do whatever they can to stop that layup if they actually don't give up on the play. If he didn't do that Celts could very easily have been eliminated by now. You call it dirty, I call it effort.

If you're going to label someone "dirty" for having one unnecessary play in a very emotional series, let's just start to call the entire NBA dirty because every player at one point does something stupid. Rondo has never done anything in his previous seasons that even came close to dirty.

If you want to single someone out on the Celtics for being abusive/a prick, go for KG. He at least has material to back it up.

Dirty? No. But I have a strange feeling he's black.

That's a little more severe than Rondo's contact.

I dont expect anything to happen in this series but next year when Chicago and Boston play in the regular season Rondo will drive the lane for a layup and get clotheslined... just saying


Rondo is a great defensive player and hes playing with fire this postseason, im a huge Rondo fan I started following him while he was at Oak Hill when i heard he was coming to Kentucky. I can easily see how some would say he's a dirty player if they just watched this bos v chi series, but man fouls like this are occuring in every series. NBA playoff basketball is serious business.

If Brad Miller flopped like Steve Nash did Rondo wouldve been suspended as well. Rondo has never played soccer so he didnt learn how to flop like Nash has.

[MRN]

Play on Miller was clean, fight with Hinrich was dirty.

[Primetime]

Rondo = 180, Miller = 250

Horry = 220, Nash = 180

He went into it, no doubt, but there was much more solid contact on Horry's part.

[Herm]

im a big Rajon fan and im not going to go out of my way to defend him. His actions lately are really questionable but it seems to be the norm for how the Celtics teams of the last 2 seasons act.

[Esjay]

I don't think he's dirty. He's just bitchmade.

[Bear Pand]

random but did horry get suspended when he checked nash? i cant remember

yeah he got 2 games

[manchild24]

i don't think the foul on miller was intentional, but what he did last night was ridiculous. dude has to calm down, thats for sure.

he admitted it after the game he did it on purpose to mess up the shot.

He's a very good player but a BITCH. He should be suspended for game 7. Basically bitch slaps a guy then throws another into the scorers table.

I swear they are giving this series to Boston

[BWEISS]

Good lord, all of the Celtic fans are defending Rondo.

Either way he should of been suspended for his actions, especially after that Hinrich tussle... Dwight Howard was suspended for simply throwing the elbow, if the refs would of known he made contact, thats an automatic ejection. But somehow, Rondo gets away with punching Brad Miller in the face, THROWING AN ELBOW at Kirk, and also throwing him into the scorers table all becuase Kirk Hinrich lost his balance and fell into Rondo. You cannot seriously defend someone like that, even if you do like him.

The pussification of the NBA fan continues.

I wish I could thank this, but I'm all out atm.

People need to pull the panties out of their vagina. First they criticize the commishes (Stern, Goodell, Selig, etc) when they suspend players, now when they don't everyone is rallying for suspensions for certain players. Out of what? Fairness? Like it's going to change time and take away Horry's suspension if Rondo isn't suspended a game.
