NO, dumb question WE LOVE RAJON, he is competitve and a leader. Be happy with what you got man. We can have Delonte West or some unknown pG running the show so be happy. He going to be a a all star every year and break alot of NBA records mark my words, and he will win a couple more championships too.

No.  I don't want to sweeten the pot for a lateral move.

A healthy Rondo for an injured CP?  Not a chance.

-----

Keep in mind that the only reason this is up for discussion is that Collison is a very good starting PG, and CP has the bigger contract.  They 1) don't need to take a PG back, and 2) probably want a comparable-level superstar (wing?) in return, along with all kinds of other goodies, I'd bet.

I would not hesitate if Paul was healthy and I think Rondo is the most exciting player in the league.

I tell you guys one thing that is bothering me, every time we lose we want to trade some one. PP he lost a step lets trade him, Ray Allen he lost the game with his poor shooting, Rondo he's still doesnt get it he lost the game for us lets trade him, If we trade these guys man they will come back and light our A$%3$ up and then what are all you guys are going to say. Stick to what we have shed the dead weight WILLIAMS, FINLEY, AND those other scrubs who are not contibuting and start looking for the steal out there man. Its going to be interesting this summer for sure.

hmmm, let me think....NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course, I've loved Rondo since he was drafted by the C's, so I'm biased.

chris paul is currently the 2nd best pg in the nba imo
he was the 1st with deron williams overtaking him, paul came into the league an incredible pg
he however started out or at least in his 2nd year was playing at his peak
this isn't a knock, very few college kids can come into the nba and play the starting pg posistion much less dominate it
rondo hasn't peaked, his room for improvement or DOMINATION is coming
Paul needs  the ball in his hands a huge % of the time, rondo can score 5 pts but be a great pg, I feel next year the only pg in the nba who will be as good as rondo all around will be williams
rondo has already gotten into the celtics record books, pushing aside bob cousy, larry bird and rick fox all hall of famers  ;)

His injury last year was a little sketchy and it seems NOH led their fans on a little, but if he clears out medically, I do it in a heartbeat.

Rondo is a great and does things no one else does.

Yet, his inability to shoot and make foul shots hampered us in the finals.

The C's must do something and Chris Paul does not have these weaknesses.

We also need to replace Ray Allen.  I love him but his last 4 games his age really showed and either Pierce or Allen needs to go so we can grow younger.


I say cash in on Rondo and Big Baby as their high ceiling might be inflated due to their playoff performances.

Rondo is untrade-able. He may not be better than Paul or Williams, but he’s on their level, and for a very manageable salary.

You cannot be serious.

Rondo is coming into his own as one of the best PG's in the league. His overall game is exceptional. C. Paul is great, but he has the "All About Him" mindset, which does not improve his team's chances nor his teammates performance.

Don't mess with a Great Thing.  

Let the following go:
- Daniels
- Finley
- Scal
- Williams
- Sheed (if he retires)

If Doc leaves, then get Van Gundy or Mark Jackson. Both have excellent BBall minds.
