Rajon Rondo on Death of True Point Guard, Flawed AAU System, Media Future | EXTRA SMOKE Full Episode 

Rondo is what the Celtics needed in 08, what the Lakers needed in 2020, and what All The Smoke needs in 2024.

People forget how good he was on the Pelicans too… very underrated point guard

This is why Rondo is needed as a coach!!!

A podcast where a former player doesn’t need to talk about rifts, beefs, or points of contention in their career or career of others. I love a podcast like this

Rondo is a genius man love hearing him talk ball

Great to see Rondo..Bron mentioned Rondo's greatness in Mind the Game.

Followed Rondo since his college days in my hometown. That boy was always gifted and smarter than 95% of any other player on the court. Once a wildcat, always a wildcat.

Rajon Rondo stands as a great example of what to do after the NBA. The man is taking advantage of all his blessings that has been given to him ever since locked down and worked hard at it. Going to school to educate yourself on more passion after basketball is astounding. You give back, by being an example.

Rondo said it best. It’s not that Europe is outshining us in basketball. It’s the fact the nba is going over there to get them

WE NEED MORE RAJON RONDO'S IN BASKETBALL

As a diehard lakers fan I’m going to forever be grateful we had rondo in 2020 because I don’t think we win that championship without him thanks rondo💜💛.

Congrats on joining the All The Smoke Podcast family Rondo. Looking forward to the future content.

Rajon was my favorite pg in his time, even as a Miami Heat fan

Very few understand the Game the way Mr. Rondo grasps it.

Rondo's Basketball IQ is genuinely crazy, he's explaining everything to be a great true point and basketball team and it all flows so naturally and is easy to understand, this is all signs of a great coach.

He should really be a coach but he too real these dudes nowadays too emotional 😂😂 glad he on the pod

Rondo was ahead of his time, at the end of the true PG era. Shout out to him on this new chapter in life!

Rondo a hall of famer! brilliant IQ ! floor general! champion ! 🏆

I hope we get a rondo breaking down film and things. Would love to see him and Matt breaking down games together.

My fav PG made me fall in love with basketball

Rondo should be an Nba coach. I bet he'd do a better job than most head coaches now.

Love Rondo, his camp was my first ever basketball camp in middle school and I was doing so good at the camp they wanted me to play with the high schoolers 🙌🏽I’ll never forget that experience!!! Legend

Rondo is such a student of the game with a very high IQ

Rondo was one of my favorite players to watch when he played! He had some of the best assists I've ever seen! A true point guard for real

Locked in whenever rondo talks

Congrats to Rondo on going back to school!!

Truly a unique and one of a kind basketball mindset, glad he’s joining the family 💪🏾🔥

Besides Rajon being super real and a G, I like how he shelters his son from social media and keeps him focused on the goal. It truly is a distraction, it makes you lazy and takes away alot drive outta you. This man right here knew his role as a player, he honed his skills and was ELITE as a PG who made super smart calls and plays that made Rajon feared on the court. He didn't need to score even tho he could. That's why I respect people with their ego in check. He knew his role and played it every time and that's why all his teammates could count on him. Rajons battles with a prime D-Rose were also very entertaining. If I remember correctly Rajon said that D-Rose was his toughest match-up and D-Rose said the same thing about Rajon. Nowadays alot of player can do much more than back in the days, but I believe we truly need more specialists who are dominant in one particular area that gives teams a certain advantage. So to hear "de*th of a true PG" makes you almost think like "DAMN. This is true!". D-Rose kinda changed the perspective of a PG too, I watched him when he was on his best season thinking "This is what PGs do now?", then you have Curry who is kinda like a mix between PG and SG yet he's listed as a PG (he basically revolutionized that position is what I'm trying to say). It's def a interesting course of evolution to see. PS. Good to see Rajon joining the team.

27:26 When he said Stack and Stack knew who he was talking about. Stackhouse was such a baller.

Rondo should be on Bron and JJs podcast

One of the most insightful interviews yet. Good shit 👊🏾

Thats a blessing he going back to school & even better the NBA paying for it

I'm so glad Rondo is part of the show!! He was one of my favorite players to watch!!!

Rondo bringing that elite IQ to the Pod 💪

How is only 30 min long damn need to be longer everything rondo said was fucking gems 💎 🙏🏼🙏🏼

I NEED D ROSE ON HERE 😭😭

MY FAVORITE PLAYER💪🏽im glad he is loved💯born in 2000 fell in love with the celtics in 08 and their little fast flashy point guard with the headband😭 every time he got the ball i knew it was in good hands

Rondo was one of the truest point guard ever. Man was helping other teams with their plays while on defense lmao

Rajon on ATS! I love listening to Rajon speak about basketball. Cant wait for future content!

Impressive game IQ! 🔥 EXCITED TO WATCH MORE

Its such a good thing that these NBA podcasts exist for the purpose of the game but also for ex-players that can further their careers post playing in a field they still have love for. Incredible knowledge for these younger players to learn from

Great guest, glad I got to Rondo on this platform.

man this was a dope ass interview

This episode long enough for a nice perso blunt , Thanks for the vibes 🖤

Rondo has been my favorite player! I'm always looking forward to content with him! Been enjoying him with Boogie and Rachel.

Thank you for this. Rondo is one of my favorite players and he hardly ever does podcasts.

Growing up in the Kobe era in LA, Rondo very quietly shared a spot as one of my favorite players. I was happy when he came to the Lakers, and even happier when we won a ring with him

what a great fit! congrats gents

Insane. Well done boys! Great addition

I’m a life long Heat fan but I got to give Rondo his props. He is one of the most unique players I have ever watched in 25 years of watching the NBA. A true legend!

One of the best PGs with complete IQ of the game. My favorite pg of all time, no bs.

Perfect group. Rondo and Lebron supplement one another for all of us, and it is with knowledgeable co-hosts who have high basketball-IQs for our benefit. Lebron and Rondo on different podcasts, simultaneously?!? So dope.

Let’s goooooooo I love it. Thank you for making this happen

All The Smoke is always captivating, best questions & make their guests comfortable to open up & be real!!! BRAVO 👏🏼

Watching Rondo helped mold my game. Both sides of the ball, dude was special

Rajon my guy!! Alot of game in that funny shaped head lol that dude could ball. Very underrated

Rondo is the only player ever to win a championship with the Los Angeles version of the Lakers and the Celtics. Love his vibe, could listen to him talk basketball for hours

Quality content here! Respect to all you gentlemen. 🏀

Halfway thru the episode and I’m loving it thank you for this

A brilliant basketball mind. Couldn't stand him when he was on the Celtics but loved him on the Lakers and really appreciated what he brought to the league. Huge respect to a legit HOF'er

Haha it’s crazy, he got a ring with the Celtics AND the Lakers haha so cool and oddly satisfying due to them being rivals 😂😂

Man Rondo is such a professional! He is the type of guy to look up to! Retired and getting his degree and encouraging dudes to finish their studies 🔥 Always been high IQ.

One of my all time favorite players a great true underrated guard in the league great addition to the show great content keep going up‼️🙏🏽

Rondo is the reason why I fell in love with basketball. That pass first point guard, defense mentality! #9 #rajonrondo #champ 🔥

Glad y’all brung rondo to the team. ❗️❗️❗️

Rajon! 502 Stand up! Congratulations and We’re Proud of you Brodie! Keep going 🔥

Rondo x All the smoke is the perfect fit. Love to see this fr fr

I love the intangibles.. box out. Positioning, defensive prowess/presence. Basketball for life

Rondo was my favorite player growing up a true point guard his assists were different such a fun player to watch

Adding rondo to the podcast a great step forward especially with Bron and JJ getting their podcast going

This is legendary!!! I miss those games when they played. Lakers×Celtics.. Good ol day's ❤

I can not stress enough how clutch Rondo was in the 2020 Lakers championship run. Rondo hit every clutch 3 we needed him to hit, and he's not even known for his 3

This is why Rondo has always been my favorite PG.

My G!!!! Respect!

my favorite player of allllll time mane idc if just being from boston is my reason why but i got my rondo jersey when i was like 7 in 2010 and happily always saw him as what 'it should look like playing basketball'. Truly an elite basketball person.

Rondo in his prime had some of the sweetest handles and when he wanted and needed to he could go get 40. One of my favorite players. Not many can say they won a ring with the Celtics and the Lakers .

Great interview with a very intelligent, well spoken, knowledgeable person ❤❤❤

Rondo so bright and his skills are underrated and will be taught to all guards in the future I'm calling it.

A player we hated to see (with Boston) but a player we loved to have (my Lakers), thank you Rondo 💪🏾💪🏾💜💛

I like rondo as a guest he knows a lot and when he speaks it's a lot of sense not too much drama just pure basketball.

Rondo continuing to evolve with the culture and giving back, is basketball greatness.

Rondo saves the day! I will watch with now.

RR good to see you...havent even listen to a minute of you guys convo...when I saw RR I just know this is good...he's on the team...ATS team... let me pull up and go grab my smoke I'll b right back..

Rondo was pure art on the floor. He makes my top 10 favorite players to watch list.

This is my most favourite episode so far wow! Invite Rondo again Matt and Steph!

Education is forever! Great episode. Rondo a first ballet HoF

Rajon Rondo is an amazing intelligent basketball player both on and off the Court!! Now, he's about to join all the smoke, even going to be an amazing, exciting show !!

Great segment and big congrats to Rondo 🎉👏🏆

Hell yeah, that’s a big 3 podcast right there; love Rajpn Rondo!

A Point Genius right there💯💯💯 Him explaining the first 3 minutes strategy should be something that these run and shoot guys now need to study religiously. KYP beats run and gun any day

Bro he a natural coach. Would love to see him on an nba or college sideline

Rondo was THAT dude on the Celtics🔥🔥👊🏾

🚨 This was a dope interview! Rondo could be a NBA head coach one day! 🚨

You can tell he understands the game!
