Exactly. I think Rebounding, and Defensively, Rondo is better than Paul. I know Chris Paul gets the NBA Defensive First team selection, and Rondo is on the second team, but I think Rondo is a better on the ball defender than Paul is. Rebounding is obvious in favor of Rondo.
As far as scoring the ball goes, Paul is leagues ahead of Rondo. Chris Paul is a threat from anywhere on the floor, and this allows him to set his teammates up in more ways than Rondo is capable of.
I think as far as creating for others, it's close to equal, but CP3 gets the nod for doing it with lesser talent around him. I've seen them both make ridiculous plays, and I know they are both capable of it.
But yes, overall, Chris Paul is definitely in a different league, only occupied by himself and Deron Williams. Rondo would find himself in the next tier I think.
I agree with all of this
Rondo will be in that group soon imo if he works on his shot a little
And Paul is not a GREAT defender when it comes to on ball D . He just gets alot of steals which makes people overlook the rest when deciding the all-defense
