December 18, 201411 yr Author Mavericks get: Rajon Rondo Celtics get: Brandan Wright, Jameer Nelson, Jae Crowder, future 1st Round pick, future 2nd Round pick
December 18, 201411 yr All the Laker websites were saying that the Lakers were offering two first round draft picks for Rondo. Sad as a Laker fan that it didn't happen but the Western Conference just got a whole lot tougher. The Texas Circle road trip just got a whole lot worse.
December 18, 201411 yr No brainer . Awesome move for Dallas. PG was only weakness. Except that Dallas now has to, you know, deal with Rondo being on the team...
December 18, 201411 yr I've always liked the Celtics. What is their long range plan to become a contender again?
December 19, 201411 yr Dallas now officially - if they weren't before - a legitimate contender to get to the conference finals.
December 19, 201411 yr Except that Dallas now has to, you know, deal with Rondo being on the team... He has a ring already...can't be that bad.
December 19, 201411 yr He has a ring already...can't be that bad. He got sold for 20 cents on the dollar. That tells you something.
December 19, 201411 yr He has a ring already...can't be that bad. He was the 4th best player on that team, and he was still a huge distraction. Rondo is a great talent and an equally large pain in the rear end...
December 19, 201411 yr He was the 4th best player on that team, and he was still a huge distraction. Rondo is a great talent and an equally large pain in the rear end... Veteran coach and veteran team might be able to mask the awfulness of Rondo the person. Him and Dirk in the PnR will be good if 2010 Rondo shows up.
December 19, 201411 yr He was the 4th best player on that team, and he was still a huge distraction. Rondo is a great talent and an equally large pain in the rear end... To be fair that was his second year in the league then also, playing with the Big 3 his job wasn't to be the star it was to run the team which he did really well. Agree that everyone says he's a pain in the rear though.

Agree that everyone says he's a pain in the rear though. I was responding to the statement that because he had a ring he wasn't that much of a pain. Quite the contrary, as he was still a pain on a team with 3 Hall of Fame players and a likely HoF coach that had a pretty strong playing career as well. If those four guys had trouble keeping him in line....
December 19, 201411 yr Serious question-since I'm not an avid NBA follower: What makes Rondo such a pain in the rear end? Don't his teammates like to be on the receiving end of assists?
