We were all treated to Rondo's shooting prowess front and center in the NBA Finals this past June, as Kobe Bryant decided to play about 8 feet off of Rondo when he covered the Celts' PG, deciding to pack the paint and clog Rondo's driving lanes instead. Without any threat of a three-point shot, Rondo couldn't get into his bread-and-butter scoring plays thanks to Kobe, and his effectiveness was largely limited.
With the Big Three only getting older, Rondo needs to keep improving his game if the Celtics plan on returning to the Finals this season. Finding Rondo a jumper should be priority No. 1 for every player, coach, and fan in Boston right now.
