    I presume they know that. That being said, CP25 is one of them. Lets say BOS doesn't need to take Parsons; I'd guess that they'd STILL have questions about how Rondo would act around their fun/we are family-like atmosphere. Would he embrace the laughing and joking, or would he be a recluse.

    People loving parsons won't stop KD from banking on floors in TC, talking smack to mchale & bench, telling jones "get off me B%#, and his defense won't stop DURANT drops 40

    Ok I am HIGHLY skeptical a Rondo trade will go down or even come to fruition with Houston. It seems it would be to forced at this point for it to even happen. As much as 'insiders' and media have hinted at dangling Parsons, I can't see Morey pulling that trigger...at least not by 2pm tomorrow. (Parsons means to much to this team ATM, great relationship with the coach, a RFA where we essentially control his destiny, the best contract in the NBA, Les doesn't want another Linsanity type situation, and plus his daughter loves him. :))

    But IF Houston & Boston have contacted and have inquired about a Rondo for Parsons + fillers, you know good ol Daryl will thoroughly entertain the notion and get his staff to run the numbers.

    IF in the perfect world the trade goes down and were able to say get Loul Deng (like insiders have hinted at) to replace a departing Parsons. I personally feel that would screw our offensive spacing terribly and potentially damage our offensive for the rest of the season going into the playoffs.

    I know defense wins championships but when you have a offense that can score at will on most occasions...that is nothing to play with.

    All in all though I doubt a Rondo trade happens...but I wouldn't be shocked b/c it's Daryl ****in Morey & if i recall correctly he has made a deal the past 6 deadlines...so we can at least expect a move (whether its minor or significant to our team)

    NBA circles talk amongst each other...Im sure that Harden and Howard gave a call to Pierce and Garnett just for more info...

    Damn those chuckleheads. Rondo-level talents don't grow on trees! If you want to chase a title, you don't get to restrict your teammates to only guys who laugh at your jokes and tolerate your farting in the locker room. It's show business, not show friends.

    The Rockets' fun, laid-back attitude may be appealing to the guys on our team, but do they have that edge to compete with the true contenders in the post season? Despite his shooting deficiencies and pissed-off demeanor, Rondo is still a big-game performer.

    I knew a dude like Rondo in high school. This guy was one deformed ugly mofo, and he knew if he didn't make it big in his field, he wasn't gonna be chit in life. So he went all out.

    Dwight is probably more sensitive to it because of the Kobe nightmare, but whereas Kobe will get in your face and hound you, Rondo is more of a brood and glare guy.
