Where Does Rajon Rondo Rank Among the Boston Celtics All-Time Great Point Guards

June 2nd, 2012 by Matt Shetler Leave a reply »
Boston Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo has been on an amazing run since the All-Star break, averaging 12.6 points, 12.9 assists and 5.9 rebounds (including playoffs) since March 2.

Rondo has certainly made his claim as one of the top point guards in the NBA today, but where does he rank among the top floor in Celtics history?

As good as Rondo is, he has a lot of competition for the top spot, as the great Celtics point guards of the past reads like a who's who list of great NBA guards.

Rondo has put together a fantastic six year career so far that includes a championship, but where does that put him among the Boston greats?

Maybe a little higher than you would think.

 

6. Nate Archibald

Archibald came to Boston in 1978 and spent five years in a Celtics uniform that saw him win a title and the honor of an All-Star Game MVP in 1981.



He was a pure creator and had averages of 12.5 points and 7.1 assists per game in his five seasons as a Celtic.

He currently ranks 11th on the Celtics all-time assists list with 2,563.
