Rajon Rondo on playing for Rick Carlisle, Doc Rivers, Ty Lue

Former Boston Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo recently reflected on the impact of various coaches on his career during an interview with the host of the “Old Man and the 3,” ex-NBAer JJ Redick.

The 2008 Celtics champ discussed how Doc Rivers helped him grow as a professional and manage playing with star teammates, recalling how Doc allowed him to call plays during games, which gave him a unique perspective on managing the team’s dynamics. He also mentions Rick Carlisle’s non-traditional coaching style and Tyronne Lue’s attention to detail and preparation. Rondo even admitted his own coaching aspirations and his love for teaching the game.
