    Very stupid. I don't like Rondo, he's a locker room cancer. You have a great team mate and player in Lin and Beverley and you guys want Rondo of all people? You'd hate him if he was here. The grass is always greener. You don't need more than 2 stars, you have your core players in Harden, Dwight, Parsons and Lin. Houston doesn't need PGs, they need chemistry, a backup center and maybe a stretch 4. Rondo is a malcontent and a nasty team mate. He has one ring with Pierce, Allen and Garnett. Let's be real here.

    I'd love to have Rondo but I don't know if we could give up the farm for him. I think Terrence Jones is very fast approaching the skill level of most every potential stretch 4 target that may actually be available right now.

    I think we would be better off looking for a player that could provide instant energy, shot creation, and perimeter defense. Shumpert and Rondo really do sound like BIG additions to this team.

    Sources: Right now, Celtics have every intention of keeping Rondo &amp; seeing if they can build around him. <---- @Chris_Broussard 7:36pm (this guy again)

    Would you guys trade Asik for Shumpert/Hardaway Jr.?

    It seems like a Morey type deal, more tradeable assets for the future, and the wingdepth we would have would be incredible.

    Not sure if serious. Shumpert is coming off a third knee surgery and who is Hardaway?

    Whatever Broussard said it means the exact opposite, so Rondo is for sure on the block.:)

    Hardaway Jr. is the reason why they are putting Shumpert on the trade block, he looks like he will be a pretty good NBA player.

    No telling you never know with these trades, since rondo is hurt right now, morey may be able to pull out a asik for rondo straight up since it's a gamble

    Rondo. REALLY!??
    He is a head case and a clubhouse cancer. (A magnified version of what we've recently created and trying to trade away).
    With Harden assuming much of the ball-handling duties, what is RR going to do? Sell beer in section 101? We need a shooter to offset Harden's drives/ISO's. Jeremy has been lighting it up lately. So we need to trade for THIS guy?
    Rondo can't hit the ocean from the beach. BAD MOVE. BAD MOVE
    Morey would be a fool. Don't be no fool Daryl.
