    I'm surprised Rondo's name hasn't been mentioned in trade rumors. His stock is lower than usual right now, but still, Celtics need to clean house and tank.

    Boston and Milwaukee could make a nice trade opportunity.

    Boston trades:
    Rondo
    T Will
    DJ White

    Milwaukee trades:
    Sanders
    Henson
    Ilyasova

    Something like that atleast. Not a lot of big contracts to make salaries work

    Reason Doc wants to leave is because he is too good for rebuilding.

    Rondo for Milwaukee's three best big men? Pass.

    I think Doc would love to be a million miles away from Rondo, who gets way too much love here. Very curious to see how he behaves with a different coach.

    I personally think its an ego problem. Rondo is one of those guys who takes the "my way or the highway" term too seriously... As a star player you should have a say in what goes on but you shouldn't be allowed to rule over the coaching staff or any authority figure above that..

    it's been reported that rondo is a difficult person to coach and work with.

    I think it's worse than that. Based on the stories I've read over the years since Rondo has been in the NBA, I believe he has a serious personality and anger problem.

    I'm not a doctor and don't know him personally so my 2 cents isn't worth much.

    Ego or not, I would love to have Rondo on this Rockets team.

    I'm sure the Celtics would welcome another chance at a Tim Duncan, seeing as to how their last chance turned out. :grin:

    If a coach tries to fight a player, because that player swore at him. Then he shouldn't be a coach.

    I hate coaches that cant deal with players. Man the **** up and do your job. You don't see Bellicheck whining about Chad Johnson or letting Tim Tebow become a distraction.

    I think if we do get Dwight, we should look into trading Lin and Asik to Boston to help in their rebuilding process for Rondo. I'm not sure why this discussion never arose before, but I think a pure point in Rondo with a true Center in Dwight would be a perfect fit with Harden, Parsons and whoever. Maybe we would have to throw in this first round pick I'm hearing we're seeking for TRob, but so what. Thoughts?

    Rondo is a walking triple double if he's available morey should be calling his pals back in Boston to get a deal done

    In before people start complaining about FT%. Not sure what Rondo's contract looks like but it's an interesting idea. The defensive potential with those 2 guys and Parsons could be special.

    I'd prefer a PG that can shoot, defend and doesn't have a large contract. I think PG is one of the least important positions when it comes to building a title contending team but adding Rondo would be intriguing.

    In before the 3p% and spacing issues.

    Rondo? Hell yeah!!!!!!!! If Doc have a problem with Rondo, I have no issue seeing Rondo in a Rox jersey. The defensive potential with Rondo and Dwight will generate even more fast break for the running Rox.

    This. He already ran Ray Allen out of town, would not be surprised at all if Doc is sick of him as well.
