Hey and welcome to the Mad Hooper segment. We have a very special guest, a town legend.

The first female editor of five, the host of Black Girl songbook.

I don't get why she is so mad. We have Danielle Smith on. I don't get why she's so mad.

Danielle, Danielle, why are you so mad?

Oh, I'm mad. I'm like for real mad and I think it's finally time that.

So I'm glad you guys are having me on the show because I think it's finally time for someone to speak up on behalf of Reginald Rondo.

Long time, basketball fan here. I'm old enough to remember when magic was playing for the Lakers and I went to high school actually down the street from the fabulous form when they were playing there.

I was just speaking to the great Mr. Bell about his years with Phoenix and disappointed Nick's fan when I was living in New York.

But then I came across in 2017, I noticed a boss in Celtics. And the reason that I started paying attention to the Celtics.

And this is where I start to get mad is because I'm a long time Kevin Garnett fan.

So when Garnett went there, I was like, okay, so you know what? I'm just I'm putting the jersey on. I'm a Celtics fan now.

I'm a Celtics fan. That's it. And I wrote with that team until I kind of broke up until homeboy that everybody thinks is the greatest three point shooter left the team.

What's his name again? I can't remember. I felt like he was in a Spike Lee movie, but I don't really mess with him because he really just completely like.

I don't know. It was just me when he did by leaving the Celtics the way he did it.

But the thing that I think that people are always asking is is Reginald Rondo good enough to go into the Hall of Fame?

And my thing is he has to go and go in as a Celtic. He's going to go in as a Laker. He's going to go in as a Clipper and eventually he's going to go in as a coach and possibly an NBA executive.

Reginald Rondo, Ruggion Rondo is an elite guard. He is a leader at the age of 22 years old. He took and I say this with nothing but love.

Oh, ask Kevin Garnett crazy ass Paul Pierce, Wild Boy, ask Kendrick Perkins. Who else was on the team? I mean to tell you like.
