Rajon Rondo and Rick Carlisle's beef was inevitable
Mentioned in this video
Rajon Rondo and Rick Carlisle were supposed to bring out the best in one another.
A savant, championship-winning point guard, paired with a cerebral, offensive-minded coach with hardware of his own. When the Dallas Mavericks acquired Rondo before the 2015 trade deadline, the move was expected to put Dallas closer to championship contention and earn the two brilliant minds another trophy. Except what followed was a drama-fueled relationship that imploded almost immediately, leaving a ton of beef.
