Rajon Rondo explained why he is the best point guard in the NBA

Rajon Rondo believes he is the best point guard because he has a different definition  of what the best point guard should be. Boston Celtics star point guard, Rajon Rondo, is on October/November Men’s Issue cover of Boston Common Magazine.  Among questions in the feature, Rondo is asked to evaluate himself among the other point guards in the league: 

“In some areas some guys might be better than me, but overall, if you lay it all out, I think I am the best.”

Why?

“My definition of what a good point guard is might be different from what some others might think. I’ll give you an example: If [head coach] Doc Rivers gets thrown out, I can run the team for the rest of the game. I know what plays to call, what sets to call, or when to call time outs. It’s more than keeping track of the score. There is so much more going on that you take for granted on any given night, and there are only so many guys who can run a team when you don’t have a coach. In that category I think I am the best at what I do.”
