In addition to Dallas & Lakers, Boston also showing interest in Lance Stephenson, source said

The only way I can see this happening would be a deal in which we move Rondo.

Would Rondo get us S&T with Lance straight up? Possibly throw in Mahimi

Do you want Mahinmi's contract of $4 million for the next two years?  That's not a rhetorical question, btw.  It could potentially help us land someone after next year.

Nope. Stephenson is a knucklehead. Why do we give the Pacers Rondo? If we were to gift wrap them Rondo in exchange for a knucklehead. I'd say fire Ainge. Imagine watching him dribble the ball from half-court, try a driving, acrobatic lay-up that goes nowhere. Or imagine him taunting opponents after a made basket. I cringe at the thought of him in a Celtic uniform.

I'd much rather just try and use one of our TPE and absorb Mahinmi outright. Boston gets a center who can eat a lot of minutes and has the game to be a decent pair with Sullinger and Olynyk and Indiana gets extra space for LS.

It's a shame there is a 2nd year on Mahinmi's contract. He would have been a really good stopgap option as starting center otherwise.

Frye to the Magic 4 years 32 million. Well they found their power forward they want. Not really sure about the fit. He would be a great role player to have but I think its going to take a little while for Payton, Oladipo, and Gordan to grow. He is the player that perfectly complements their skillset though. Good veteran leader as well, I like this signing for orlando.

Report: Knicks, Sixers discussing possible Amare Stoudemire deal. Don’t bet on it.

Ya, probably not happening. Why in the world would the Sixers want to HELP the Knicks?..

If the Sixers benefit from a possible trade, why should they care if the deal also helps the Knicks?
