How does Rondo look 50 suddenly?
Rondo was so dope! Me and my homie are Laker fans and we had to stopped in the middle of that 2010 finals and look at each other and say daaaaaaamn Rondo is dope AF . š
God doesnāt want anybody in hell because He loves us, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). Weāre not sinners because we sin, but rather we sin because weāre sinners. Sin is the nature of our flesh that we are born with due to the sin of Adam in the garden. For someone to be justified before God they have to be sinless. Weāve all sinned (Romans 3:23), and the the law demands death for those who sin (Romans 6:23). God is righteous, so He must punish our sin, which is what He did through His Son Jesus Christ on the cross. Jesus is Holy and sinless, yet He received our sin when He died on the cross, so that we can be righteous before God (2 Corinthians 5:21). When He died on the cross, He said āIt is finishedā (John 19:30), which means He paid the full price for all of your sins (past, present, and future) to be forgiven. He was buried and rose again from the dead. God will forgive anybody who puts their full trust in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. We arenāt saved based on our good deeds, but only by the grace of God (Ephesians 2:8-9). His precious blood that He shed is the only reason why we can be forgiven of our sins (Hebrews 9:22). If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised Him from the dead, then youāll be saved (Romans 10:9). You are born-again with the Spirit of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17), and are not only legally justified before God, but also are accredited His righteous (Romans 4:24). Believers live for Christ now, so get to know Him through His Word. I recommend reading the book of Romans and the gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), and watching Pastor Joseph Princeās online sermons!
Kobe didn't have a bad game in game 7. That series rebounds won every game. Game 7 Kobe adjusted what it took to win. That's why he da goat
Anyone else catch the backhand insults from JJ thrown towards Kobe?
I love jj trying to make excuses for 2010 series. Kendrick perkins. Thats like saying 2008 there was no andrew bynum. Wallace being tired kobe was hurt everywhere
Listening to these losers in the comment section including JJ take as many shots at Kobe as they can on the sneak tip is nasty behavior. Thats why Kobe kicked his š right out the offs in 09 even though they defeated his favorite man in Lebron James ššš. Mamba haters are so funny because they cannot talk about Kobe without trying to sneak diss him. It hurts them. Also hey Rondo…you just said Kobe played horrible…well did you play great in game 7? No…oh okay haha
I watched game 7 and for a guy who was labeled selfish to be able to pull down 15 rebounds and effect the game defensively as well deserve alot of credit. He didn't say that's not my job he lead by example and went after it all to help his team when. That was a BEAUTIFUL GAME 7 and the Celtics was no Joke KG was just different defensively if he didn't get injured PG wouldn't stand a chance just my opinion
They don't talk about How difficult Kobe's championships runs were . Those back to back laker chips ware precious to LA
Heās was good. But no!! Not top 3 point guards. Naw bruh.
I was glued to that TV running back to house to not miss anything catch all games from tip off to 0.00
The dude says that series was ugly cos he's the type of the player just stay in the corner catch the ball and shoot. He didn't even reach the top 10 list on a skill on one thing he can do. He doesn't understand what it takes too win š.
Itās funny one of Kobeās finals losses came when they added their sending best player in February of that season. They adjusted on the fly. They probably win if they had pau to start the year
Kobe in the 2010 finals Was good the poor shooting in game 7 is what messed up his percentages significantly dropped him from 43/37/90 to 40/32/88 but the best thing about 2nd in rebounds 2nd in assist & 1st in steals he hit more 3s than Ray Allen & they took around avg more rebounds than KG & Perk more steals than Rondo
Awesome. Someone needs to thank him for gifting LA a championship in the damn bubble. His play with AD, overall coaching, leadership and clutch play to clinch it.
How do you call it ugly? Need to hear it from you JJ.
Lakers vs Celtics 2010 game 7 defense intense
JJ is a Bron Stan and Kobe Op love that Rondo didn't fall for the trap
Why I donāt fool with jj lol ā¦ he ball bitting ā¦ if Kobe had a bad game scoring he still overcame by doing other things jj not even highlighting that, but heāll nightlight everything Bron do but showing up on bad scoring nights lol stop it JJ
Kobe had a bad shooting game
But still led everyone in points & 2nd rebounds..
They were fouling Kobe like crazy cuz they couldnāt guard him
In 08 the Lakers had hurt players too. Why they only talk about the 10 playoffs
it wasnt ugly. it was just that both teams wanted it so bad and the result was too much physicality and defense. and Kobe wanted the ring so badly even if he would miss 30 shots. he didn't care as long as they got the W.
JJ Redick is such a nasty dishonorable slimy weasel. Why does he have to go out of his way to discredit Kobeās legacy? This Lebron paid stooge is always giving Kobe a backhanded compliment or outright discrediting Kobeās legacy. Heās sitting there nitpicking game 7 and making excuses for the Celtics like he was on that team. š¤” Come one Redick! Youāre crying because Perkins couldnāt play in G7. Did you forget that Boston still had a stacked roster? Kevin Garnet, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen, Rajon Rondo, and Rasheed Wallace? Youāre also quick to point out that Kobe had didnāt shoot well, but let me remind you, that NOBODY SHOT THE BALL WELL IN THAT GAME! It was a defensive game, yet Kobe still led both teams in scoring, and he did it with a broken finger on his shooting hand! He also played defense, and pulled down 15 huge rebounds! Kobe won that ring by doing the heavy lifting. He didnāt run to build a Superteam like your master Lebron. Kobe didnāt need multiple superstars and top 75 players to win that Championship! Kobe led his team and won like a true champion. No short cuts! You never won anything! Youāll never know what it takes to be an NBA champion! š¤” š¤” š¤” Go cry to your daddy Lebron james who pays your bills!
Rondo is certified. He was for sure a top pg in his prime
They wouldnt let Kobe lose twice to the Celtics.
JJ hating high key
JJ is a hater for everything that aināt Lebron foreal lol.. foh man
Randall nearest assistant job for the Lakers
JJ a kobe hater
Rondo is a legendary player. Watching him in the bubble was absolutely amazing. One of the only guys Iāve seen can run the entire offense when LBJ is off the court. It was very sad to watch him go. Stay Focused!
Ugly basketball!!!!? That was some jay-z ugly then!! One of the most competive games Ƭve seen. Real basketball!
These young dudes don't remember prime rondo. That first round series in 08 against rose and the Bulls were legendary. Rondo was going tit for tat with rose…scoring too
LBJ is that Guy
I like Rondo! He had game šÆšÆšÆ
JJ was triggered on first take because one guy mentioned how physical the game was back then. He said to drop it.
Here he is now talking about how that series in 10ā was āold schoolā for how physical it was. Hypocrite!!
Bynum was hurt too jj doing like a hater in his review
Wtf is in between rondo's eyes š¤Ø
Game was ugly Rondo smiles he from a different era š
Prime who better Chris Paul or Rajon
I was calling prime Rondo the best PG ever if he would've developed a jumper
Kobe had 15 rebounds that game he made sure they won that game
Not a travel, if the defender touches the ball and then you land, itās a jump ball. 2 defenders touched it
Talking about Perk, 2008, Lakers were missing 2 starters entire playoffs and made it to game 6 of NBA Finals.
