Max was just on WEEI and said he talked to Rondo about his contract. He asked Rondo if he would take 50 MIL for 5 years and Rondo said yes. That seems like a pretty fair salary for him.

So Baby will be making more than Rondo according to Max.  ;D

I never trust anything Max says, but if Rondo is only looking for 5 years, $50 million, I say get it done.  The starting salary would be around $8 million or so in the first year, and I think that's fair.

Do it. At the end of it, Rondo will be entering his prime. That's a perfect time to start looking for a max contract.

Yes, do it.  That's a bargain.  Plus, if he continues to be "uncoachable," he will be very attractive to other teams in a trade.

I don't buy all the "Rondo is an egomaniac talk." He seems like a great kid to me. If this is all Rondo wants, and I really need to emphasize all, then DA needs to lock Rondo up right now, because this is a very fair deal, if not a bargain. Our problem is that Wyc doesn't want to pay up, evidenced by last years penny pinching and subsequent second round exit.

Does Cornbread just wake up wondering how he can get some more face time every single day?

Maybe Max is the "lower level" member of the Celtics organization we send over to the Pistons to propose trades.   ;)

Agreed, Rondo might take it. I'm not sure his agent would though!
