Chris Paul and Rajon Rondo envy each other, hate each other, and almost got traded for each other

When Rajon Rondo and Chris Paul got into it with each other very early in the 2018-19 season, lots of us wondered what the source of their beef was. Old Olympic team selection grudges? Frustration over perceived slights? Jealousy? Or maybe it's a little bit of all three...at least, as far as we know.

"Fairly sure" as in you read it in the press and vaguely or hazily recall some of the specifics, or "fairly sure" like "I thought about it for a minutes, and I'm pretty sure I know exactly what happened wherever Rajon Rondo was when he was watching that game."

IDK man i think the whole rings argument is kind of weak imo. Like unless you're discussing true goats like MJ kareem and LBJ who have the ability to will their teams to win unwinnable games most of winning a ring is out of your control, you only control how well you play not how well your teammates/bench play or how well your coach does or any of the other hundred things that you need to win a ring. CP3 and rondo both aint on that level that ppl like Shaq MJ Bron Magic kareem Kobe and all those guy are at, so its unfair to use rings to compare them. Just evaluate the player individually and make the cut there, you can use individual playoff statistics as a method of comparison but comparing individuals using a team trophy always seemed kind of sus to me.

One thing that you didn't mention is that aside from the Mavs tenure, Rondo has always been team-first guy on and off the floor. Always organizing team dinners, helping any teammate with anything they needed, helping rookies and G-League (D-League then) find places to stay, leading them in practice. He always took the side of his teammates and protected them from coaches, scrutinies, media and so on. Rondo always elevated his teams by empowering his teammates while CP3 elevated his teams by him being good and scoring. He used his teammates while Rondo put them in position to be better.

Rondo’s statement remains true - Paul still has no ring (a day after bucks-suns finals game 6)

[@lawislaw2585]

Here when CP3 just blew another chance to win a ring. Rondo put a curse on him lol

[@dxfaze1583]

I got to work on rondo house in Louisville nice guy he seems ever humble

[@stevenbaker9059]

If you combine this beef with the Rondo vs. Ray Allen beef, and it seems clear to me that Rondo thought he was underappreciated. He had a ring and figured that made him one of the best PGs, but everyone is saying that Chris Paul is the best PG and that Rondo is a product of the team. He thought he was just as good as the rest of the championship Celtics and started to lash out at Ray.

[@chironace9516]

Thats what game of zones said

[@ShaneMike112]

But cp3 is better so cz I'm pretty sure rondo couldn't have taken the Hornets to the playoffs plus if it was about rings lebron wouldn't be considered greater than Kobe or anyone else with more than him

[@SeaTK610]

Rondo is not on the level as Ray or Paul

[@gobot581]

It was really a fight for that third spot KG and Paul still had more in the tank Ray was furthest from his prime so Rondo figured I’m the third in Big 3

[@souljacrankthat]

Love it. Another great video. I love watching these man. Great job.

[@shusmitgully792]

And now Rondo is a two time NBA Champion, having a great Finals perfomance. Hopefully CP3 will get his rightfully deserved ring soon.

[@savethebeez]

There’s a reason they call him playoff rondo, and there’s a reason CP3 has never won a chip :0

[@Thunderjerky]

Yeah one has played with KG, Pierce, Allen, and LeBron and the other has played with...James Harden, David West, Blake Griffin, and Devin Booker. Those players are totally comparable!

[@savethebeez]

@@Thunderjerky Paul has been on nothing but good teams since he’s left New Orleans. Clippers constantly failed and he had a cake walk finals run and lost. Too bad.

Who’s here before game 3 of the Suns Clips series hoping for this beef to return

[@scottdagenhart5793]

I get impression (having been a Pels/Hornets season ticket holder during both of their time there) that CP3 is a guy you want on your team, but don't necessarily want to hang out with. Rondo, on the other hand, is a guy you'd try to catch dinner with if he were in town, but is a tough teammate to deal with. That's at least the impression I get.
