    Why is this thread becoming LOFs vs LOHs again? Rondo needs to be here, by hook or by crook...

    So you also think clutch was speaking crap when he backed up CyberX?

    Like I said earlier DANNY will pay RONDO RESPECT by giving him a chance to see how he feels about a deal before it happens. He didn't want to resign or go there because they're not a contender.

    Dangled, maybe. But probably for a bait and switch. Tis' the season for smokescreens and trial balloons.


    Parson's is our only reliable defender, a guy you can put on anybody. Plus he can score when the other scorer's are having a bad night, both qualities the team is short on. Trade Parsons and you'd have to fall back to Garcia for that.

    Plus we have a three good PG's so we can at least keep fresh legs for 82+ games. I can't see gutting all this chemistry that seems to be building so positively for whatever upgrade Rondo brings. I think Dwight will tell them don't do it; and they will listen.

    Dang! Harden had one bad game last night and Morey wants to trade him already :p.

    Of all the players this board have been drooling over in the past year, Rondo is the only one that I think is worth it.

    LOL. Perhaps it qualifies as Ainge shopping Rondo for the fourth straght season with no takers category?

    Not if he were given the opportunity to compete for a title. He would have to take less. Surely he is bored on the current Celtics team headed nowhere and would salivate at the thought of becoming the Western Big Three.

    Im all for it.

    If Lin isn't on the trade block there's no chance at all that Rondo is in our future. The rumor was fun while it lasted though.

    Haha. You trying to earn points here?
    Yes, I think clutch is mistaken about cyberx's credibility

    Sam, Kenny, Thorpe, Horry, Maxwell, Ellie. Not exactly "stars" but definitely above-average role players...

    Says the guy with the most posts in the thread (approaching 40 already).

    You look like a damn fool, even Clutch himself has vouched for cyberx.

    Rondo guards Westbrook, Bang and Garcia guards Durant, Harden and Jones guards Ibaka, Dwight protects everything inside. We can beat OKC with Rondo. Wouldnt lose much offense trading away Lin and Asik. It'll have to be 3 way somehow

    Pretty much. But you have to realize that not only is Clutch a very insightful NBA guy, he is interested in keeping the peace and site traffic. I would do the same.
