    Celtics trade Rondo to Dallas

    Blah blah blah.  You resort to ad hominum attacks instead of responding to the substance of what I have posted.  Zenter, I'll propose this bet to you and Grin&MartyBarret.  if the Celtics don't have a better record this year without Rondo than they had with him, I'll stop posting here fore a...

    Celtics trade Rondo to Dallas

    On the topic of Rondo?  Agreed.  I don't root for the Mavs, and if I did I'd feel fleeced, especially since it's being reported that the first rounder is likely to be a top eight protected 2016 pick, not a 2015 pick.

    Celtics trade Rondo to Dallas

    Well, thank goodness Ainge unloaded Rondo to save me from even more redundancy.

    And what's your opinion of Rondo?

    Celtics trade Rondo to Dallas

    Well, they weren't getting any playoff experience with Rondo.  He's the Jay Cutler of the NBA.

    Celtics trade Rondo to Dallas

    Irrational?  Rondo played himself out of town and got himself dealt to a contender.  IMHO Jackie M. was right all along.

    Celtics trade Rondo to Dallas

    If backcourt defense is what Dallas was seeking, they will be sorely disappointed in this deal.  Lucky for them they still have Harris and Barea.

    Celtics trade Rondo to Dallas

    Not really, the way Rondo has been playing (and if Smart can stay healthy).   Rondo has convinced me, with his erratic play, that it would be a losing proposition to attempt to build a winner around him.  Too many turnovers, too much indifferent defense.  He may become a nice complementary piece...

    Do the Celtics have any players who are very good?

    Actually his defense and rebounding were pretty good for the last two games, admittedly against bad opposition.

    Celtics Interested In Evan Turner?

    Turner has played well in the last two games.  His length presents problems for opposing guards.

    4 on 5 basketball

    I haven't seen the Vipers play, but it sounds like the system that D'Antoni used in Phoenix.   IMHO it's one thing to leak players out on a regular basis, it/s another to defend 4 on 5, which is a losing proposition against good teams.  As for full court trapping on every play, Dr. Tom Davis...

    NBA 2014-2015 Game Thread

    Well, I'd love playing in  that system if I were  the guy hanging the basket who didn't have to exert himself on defense.   On another front, there were some significant injuries last night.  Robin Lopez is out indefinitely with a broken hand, and Jabari Parker hurt his knee and had to be...

    NBA 2014-2015 Game Thread

    I'd be curious as to the role Cousins played, if any, in the Malone firing.  I can't believe that they would have done it (a) without consulting Cousins or (b) if he had serious objections.

    Do the Celtics have any players who are very good?

    Plus Monroe would come without Bird rights and will be unrestricted at the end of the year.  Even if you like his game, why relinquish a first rounder to win a few more games this year (and maybe not even that)?

    Do the Celtics have any players who are very good?

    IMHO James Young could be the steal of the draft.  Natural scorer.  So is Marcus Thornton, and if I were a contending team looking to cherry pick the Celtics roster at the deadline, he'd be my number one target. He's the kind of player who can come in for 15-20 minutes and win a playoff game for...
