Isiah Thomas Explains Why Lakers’ Rajon Rondo Will Be a Hall of Famer

November 2, 2020

Isiah Thomas has explained why the Lakers’ Rajon Rondo will eventually be a hall of famer. The Lakers are in a good place right now and it is very impressive to see. With the amazing play of LeBron James and Anthony Davis, they were able to come out on top of the NBA. They are officially NBA champions after a long break from getting to the playoffs.

This title went over even better for Lakernation given what they had to go through this season. The death of Kobe Bryant was hard for the whole sports world. But it was especially difficult for the Los Angeles Lakers organization. Not only that, but they also played in the NBA bubble for a whopping 4 months.

“I am here for one reason and one reason only, and that’s to compete for a championship,” James said. “That was my mindset once I entered the bubble, once I entered the quarantine process the first two days. And then right from my first practice my mindset was to, if I’m going to be here, make the most of it and see what you can do and lock in on what the main thing is. And the main thing was for us to finish the season and compete for a championship.”

“So that’s just been my mindset throughout these — I don’t even know how many days it is, whatever how many days it is, it feels like five years so it really doesn’t matter. I’ve been as locked in as I’ve ever been in my career.”

“Rondo’s going to the Hall of Fame because he’s probably one of the smartest players to play and he’s a champion.” Thomas said (per Heavy.com). “I’ve always called Rondo a genius.”

Rondo has been pretty impressive with the Lakers so far. And we all remember what he was able to do with the Celtics.
