Marshon Brooks cannot be "developed".

56-59 wins. no worse than a 4 seed.What's our feelings going into the season?we been pretty quiet as a fanbase on here over the summer.
deep and versatile on the bench. i'm usually a skeptic, but I have high expectations this year.
I think you have a hard time understanding their front office philosophy fam.
The deal you are proposing makes them the Milwaukee Bucks.
The Celtics historically only go 2 routes completely trash or championship contention.
They'll gather enough young players and picks...develop what they have and make deals that only make sense to be at the top.
So in this so call business model what do you think they are going to be able to get for a just returning from injury, not having the same stats with bums, unhappy Rondo??? They better ship him out BEFORE he gets exposed. And you can believe that shyt he is trying to sale people that he is happy if you want to. That nikka is not about to waste the prime of his career in their rebuilding process. Smith/Jennings plus expiring contracts should get it done for him.
and I told you they would be fools to do that. You REALLY think Rondo is about to waste the prime of his career playing with bums while the rebuild.I already replied to you on what they are likely to do on the previous page.
Edit
I looked at his contract and he only has 2 years left...they not about to just let him walk
Oh it's gonna decrease alright.....

You REALLY think Rondo is going to sit around for that shyt
What deal do you think someone will offer them better than Josh Smith/Brandon Jennings plus throw-ins.
Boston doesn't make this trade. If they're gonna make a trade with Detroit involving Rondo, theywant Drummond. The Celtics would have no use for Josh Smith or Jennings because they'd wind up trying in vain to move their contracts.

The NBA announced to its teams on Friday that it is tweaking some of the qualifications for league leaders in some statistical categories, starting this season.
Here’s a basic rundown…
Non-shooting categories (points per game, rebounds per game, etc.)
Old: A player must have played in 70 games or totaled a certain amount of points (1400), rebounds (800), assists (400), etc. That last part allowed Rajon Rondo to lead the league in assists per game last season, even though he played in just 38 games.
New: A player must play 70 percent of his team’s games (58) in order to be listed among the league leaders. The only exception to this rule will be if, at the end of the season, the player would have led the league in the category had he played the required number of games with his current category total.
Here’s a past example of the above exception: Gerald Wallace had 138 steals in 55 games (2.51 SPG) during the 2005-06 season. Wallace would have still led the league in steals because his average with 58 games (2.38 SPG) would have been greater than the 2.28 SPG of Brevin Knight, the leader among players who met the 58-game qualifier.
Rondo’s 420 assists last year would not have been enough. So call this “the Rondo Rule” if you wish.
Shooting percentage categories
Field-goal percentage leaders are determined the same way as they have been in the past. You need 300 made field goals (or 300/82 per team game if you’re calculating in-season) to qualify.
Free throw percentage leaders are also determined the same way as they have been in the past. You need 125 made free throws (or 125/82 per team game in-season) to qualify.
There is a change in how 3-point percentage leaders are determined. In the past, you needed just 55 made 3s (0.7 per team game) to qualify. Now, you need 82 (or one per team game in-season).

Sorry if this sounds dumb but Miami gotta play Brooklyn as the last preseason game tonight... but they played last week
THEN the Heat gotta go back to Brooklyn next Friday.
So the Nets and Heat would've played each other 3 times in the last 14 days
