The last time Rondo put up good numbers against Rose was probably in the 09 playoffs. He was a monster that series.
Rondo is heavily overrated. He is a "true" point guard, but he severely lacks any sort of consistent offensive game. The only thing he can do is drive since he's very fast, but even then, he's not a great finisher. To put the icing on the cake, he also sucks at FTs.
"Derrick Rose has gotten the better of Rajon Rondo this year when the two have guarded each other. In four games, Rose has averaged over 14 PPG while shooting 46 percent from the field when guarded by Rondo. On the other end of the floor, Rose has effectively shut down Rondo, holding him to just 4 PPG on 36 percent shooting."
