    The only hope Houston has is if Tyson Chandler gets injured for any period of time.

    Rondo hasn't played well since his injury. This is like Brooklyn trading for Deron.

    It just seems the league is conspiring against Morey. Morey has to work 10x harder to get players because GMs don't want him to succeed. I hope this will be a D-Will type of trade; Rondo will go to Dallas a shell of his former self.

    He already is a shell of his former self so chances of that seem pretty good...

    Regardless if Rondo is still considered a superstar or allstar. It still makes them a really solid team with that starting 5.

    i think celtics got the better end of this deal. wright was a good big man for them and now mavs have 2 ball handling guards and both of em are below average from long distance

    you guys are hoping rondo is washed up to justify passing on him. wrong. his shooting has been even worse, but he's still a triple double machine and perhaps the best table setter in the league right now. dallas made out like dirty bandits plain and simple.

    How the f**k is the Dallas offer better than Houston's Pelican's first round draft pick? Oh well more young talent for us then.

    This. Why did Boston do this? Makes no sense.
