Rondo: KD can always save the team. Rockets players are all great, but not everyone is good at pushing forward.

Today, former Celtics star Rondo talked about the Rockets' situation on Matt Barnes' podcast "All The Smoke."

"The Rockets players performed very well on the court, especially KD, who can always get the ball out of trouble at critical moments. They are all very good players and can play an important role in the game. However, the key lies in how to pass the ball at the right time and location. Give it to them so that they can exert their greatest power. Although they are good at scoring, not every player is good at advancing quickly, so I say that if they have a point guard, they can usually perform at a world-class level when they find their position.

Yesterday, the Rockets defeated the Magic 117-113 in overtime. In this campaign, Rockets star Durant made 13 of 24 shots, 2 of 8 three-pointers, and 7 of 7 free throws in 45 minutes. He scored 35 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, and 1 block. He had 5 turnovers and a plus-minus value of +4. Durant hit key three-pointers in the final quarter, and his mid-range shot in overtime also helped the Rockets expand their advantage.
