Rondo: can't shoot for his life, and with shumpert on him won't have fun driving in the paint
You bring up a really interesting point as far as a possible motivation behind this pick. The last thing a lot of us remember (including the Knicks Front Office) is Rondo eviscerating us on the drive and only JJ (our tallest guy on the court) being able to slow him down. If Shumpert can fix that, then that is definitely something.
