Rajon Rondo spent many years playing for the Boston Celtics, won a championship with the team, and still holds a special place in his heart for the franchise.
And, like many others, Rondo is impressed by what he sees from the team these days.
Speaking with All The Smoke Productions, Rondo said the “unselfish” Celtics have a lot of firepower and could have multiple stars shoot close to ten three-pointers per game.
“When you surround the floor with creators, you have to respect everybody.”@RajonRondo has high praise for how the Celtics are moving on and off the court.

He mentioned that Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Derrick White, Payton Pritchard, and Kristaps Porzingis could all get lucky from beyond the arc every single night.
If that’s the case, what chance does any other team have of slowing them down?
Rondo is right when he says the Celtics are powerful when they’re on offense, but they are also incredible with their defensive schemes.
This is what makes them so unstoppable: they are impressive on both ends of the court.
During Wednesday night’s loss to the Indiana Pacers, the Celtics shot 19-of-57 from the three-point line and that was them on a relatively bad night.
When they get red-hot, they make life miserable for their opponents.
The Celtics won the championship last season because their roster is filled with two-way players who can do anything on both ends of the court.
Rondo and many others see that, and that is why they believe a title repeat is possible for this squad.
The Celtics shoot and defend well and make everything look easy.
