Well, the astute Celtics coach made another smart move by heading to Louisville, Rondo's hometown, to speak at Rondo's basketball camp there Thursday. Stevens had been with the Celtics for the past few days in Orlando, where their summer league team is playing, but the Celtics were off Thursday.

I hate how today on the radio, Felger and Mazz is criticizing Stevens for being a "suck-up" to Rondo

I personally love that he did this. It's not sucking up. It's call bonding with your players. You cannot be a good coach if you do not know your players...ESPECIALLY your star player. He is making all the right moves and  hope he succeeds here in Boston

I like the move. Especially the fact that he did it even though he didn't have to.

By doing this he's acknowledging how important Rondo is to this team.

And I think Rondo likes that.

Good job, coach.

Here's a video of it:

Rondo : "I will never play for the Miami Heat"

gotta love Rondo's loyalty and his hatred for Miami. I'm betting he's pulling for KG and Paul to knock of Miami this year.

Some will say he's being a boot-licker, I think he's being astute. And love his reaction & answer to the last question.

I doubt that's what he's pulling for.
