If this is true then you have to question what the hell is going on with Rondo. He was Boston's best player during the playoffs and yet they've been aggressively shopping him around to different teams as if he has some sort of expiration date. I've never seen a team so willing to trade a player coming off a monster playoff performance this fast. They could at least wait to see what other deals are out there before pulling the trigger so quickly.

that would be a very stupid trade and it really makes no sense for Memphis to do it.

maybe chris wallace felt he needed to help the celtics get on par with the lakers. i think c-wall misses the c's/lakeshow rivalry and is doing everything in his power to re-enact it.

Prince + filler for Kobe Bryant
To be honest the way Prince has played and with Kobes injury/age/mileage Im not sure I would do that deal either. Still Prince is more important and he wins the head to head battles with Kobe.

I don't think they feel he's worth the contract he's playing himself into..

If this is true you might as well gift wrap the Celtics another Eastern Conference crown.
