Yea, Rondo is easily our key player. No one on the Cavs has been able to match up with him...they're talking about Lebron guarding him in Game 5, which would be really weird. Lebron may hold Rondo to 8 points, but with him out at the point, unable to give help to teammates, Rondo may get 30 assists haha.

And this comes from a Cavs fan!!!

I think the Cavs' achilles heel is their lack of a Rondo-like point guard...of the two who run our point, I'd rather see Delonte West than Mo Williams...West is unafraid to take the ball to the rack, and seems as though he will dish to the open man accordingly...Mo only seems to want to jack up 3's, and seems to sulk when he doesn't get the ball...

If we had a point like Rondo, we'd be a LOT tougher than we are now...I take my hat off to him (Rondo) and Doc Rivers...a lot of the Celtics seem to be banged up a bit, but they stand taller and play harder when Rondo runs the point, and the Celtic defense seems energized when he's out there...the rest of the series, no matter how long or who wins, should be most interesting

Another thing with Rondo is that he is still very young. He could very well end up winning an MVP in his career. Right now I'd rank him a top 5 PG.

Well since Chris Paul is out this year, Rondo is definitely the #2 PG...I could hear an argument for Steve Nash, but besides Deron Williams, who's better than Rondo in the league right now?
