Well, it is safe to say the honeymoon period is over in Dallas between head coach Rick Carlisle and Rajon Rondo.
During the Mavs and Raptors game, the Mavs called a timeout and that’s when the fireworks began as Carlisle and Rondo had a heated exchange.
It’s not uncommon for players and coaches to mix it up from time to time. Add the fact Rondo is one super-competitive player and the face he hasn’t really meshed in correctly in Dallas, frustration may have set in.
