    Rajon Rondo May Be Back Friday vs. Lakers

    As soon as he proves he's healthy and producing they will trade him.

    If they trade him, Ainge will get a stud or 1st rounder. C`s have tons of picks banked so hopefully a player who impacts right away.
    Rondo is a game changer who if he matures could make the right team a contender.

    I don't believe people are truly understanding the dynamic here. You get a guy back who hasn't played in a year. Now, I'm a huge ANTI Crawford guy and he's the guy taking the fall here. I don't see him taking this professionally. Guessing here that there will be significant changes before the deadline for good or bad.

    Hard to argue, he is probably the best true point guard there is (when healthy of course). A lot of the more popular point guards are more scoring guards playing the point.

    Look at his roster. I think you could honestly argue it's the worst roster in the league bar NONE.

    He's actually done a good job in many people's eyes.

    Yeah, Stevens has been great this season considering what he has to work with. Every night they play the opposing team has the best 2-4 players on the floor. That is until Rondo comes back obviously.

    Yes Paul is great. Rondo and Paul are close in assist-to-turnover ratios so I'll give you that. So I'll revise my statement to read Rondo is one of two best pure points in NBA.

    Hope he is ok with playing for a rebuilding team. Stevens will allow him to run the show. Just hope Ainge doesn't dump him for some draft picks.

    After last nibhts trade god knows they don't need more draft picks. Somebody was joking "In the 201x draft picking 1st ... Boston, picking 2nd Bos, Picking third Bis, well you get the idea.

    Yes but Stevens is already doing a nice job given his talent (or lack of). Let's see what the rest of the season brings with Rondo back and how much Brad likes his job then.

    Wish some of Ray Allen's shooting touch rubbed off on him. All he is missing from being top 3 player in game is a decent j.

    IMO tank mode. Rondo in body is one thing but not many players recover mentally right away. He may take some time to be the Rondo we used to know. Guessing Humpries next to go. They may have difficulty losing the next 2 to LAL and ORL.

    I'm just guessing here but I think they've only won once by more than 7 in 40 games.
