  • Rondo to the Mavericks

    The Celtics have agreed in principle to deal Rajon Rondo to the Mavericks in exchange for Brandan Wright, Jameer Nelson, Jae Crowder and two draft picks, according to ESPN.com.

    Pretty decent sized deal for mid-NBA season. Not sure what this does for his fantasy value, but Rondo will have a lot more weapons to drop dimes in Dallas. Plus he wont be asked to shoot as much, so that's a plus.

    Backups at three spots and two non-prime draft picks. Seems pretty cheap for the Mavericks. Their depth suffers, but none of these guys was pulling 30 minutes. Only Nelson was pulling 20 and that would have fallen.

    For the Celtics, they now have someone to cover Rondo's minutes, a usable young C and a scrappy SF. In two years they might still be wearing green.

      What an awful return for the Celtics. They are obviously doing a Philadelphia with accumulating picks (for the rest of the decade) and trading for guys they are allowed to flip for more picks ...

      If they could have landed Monroe and Jennings from DET they would have done much better.
