Los Angeles Lakers Report: Was Rajon Rondo telling truth about Chris Paul?

Rajon Rondo dealt with his suspension a little bit differently than Brandon Ingram and Chris Paul

The major part of the investigation was about if Rajon Rondo did indeed spit on Chris Paul.

Video evidence did show some wet clear liquid come out of Rondo’s mouth. Rajon Rondo had a lot to say concerning what happened from his point of view to ESPN.

"As Rondo explained it to ESPN, “I had a mouthpiece in my mouth and I exasperated because I was about to tell him to ‘get the [expletive] out of here.’ ” It’s possible that, rather than “exasperated,” Rondo meant to say “expectorated,” but his point was that if spittle from his mouth landed on Paul’s face, it was not by design. “Y’all are playing me with these tricks or these mind games, tampering with the evidence,” the 13th-year point guard asserted. “Ain’t no way that I intentionally spit on you with my body language the way it was. “One, if I spit on you, bottom line, there is not going to be no finger-pointing. If you felt that I just spit on you, then all bets are off. Two, look at my body language. If I spit on you on purpose, I’m going to be ready for a man to swing on me. You ain’t going to have my hands on my hip and my head look away at someone if I spit on them.”"

I mean you make the call on if he’s telling the truth or not.

But it’s what Rajon Rondo stated about Chris Paul as a teammate that leads to a discussion that may be floating around the NBA as executives consider bringing Chris Paul on their roster at a salary cap killing price.

"“Everyone wants to believe Chris Paul is a good guy. They don’t know he’s a horrible teammate. They don’t know how he treats people. Look at what he did last year when he was in L.A.; trying to get to the Clippers’ locker room. They don’t want to believe he’s capable of taunting and igniting an incident."

I have to give Rajon Rondo credit, he made a great point there. Let’s look at what happened.
