Rajon Rondo is taking a lot of heat for a nothing incident with Chris Paul. I mean, the league is even looking into it for some weird reason.
But why? I try to answer that on TruFan.
Rondo's a young guy who still has a lot to learn. And part of getting a huge contract like this is becoming more mature and representing your team, as well as yourself. The Chris Paul incident was not Rondo's finest hour, but it's also not a big deal. Yet.
Rondo CAN be one of the faces of this league. He CAN be a guy who makes a ton in endorsements. But as long as people have the inclination to take someone else's side rather than his in incidents like this... he won't.
