The Boston Celtics, after years of flirting with potential Rajon Rondo deals, are in substantive discussions on a trade that would send Rondo to the Dallas Mavericks, according to league sources.
Sources told ESPN.com that the Celtics and Mavericks have been discussing a swap that would furnish Boston with multiple draft picks -- including at least one future first-rounder -- as well as blossoming Mavericks center Brandan Wright and other players needed to make the salary-cap math work.

sometimes i wish real life had a activity stream. just stream into random ppls convos. would be awesome. and if you said a bad word 3 times or somethin u got banned from life.
 
Giving up Brendan Wright wouldn't be good. The Mavs have depth problems in the big men department. Would only make sense if they had consecutive trades for another big.

Maybe this. I love Rondo, don't get me wrong, but he's looking pretty shabby for only being in his 8th season. His FG and FT percentages are absolutely atrocious, but he's a legit triple double threat. If you add on his injury history, he seems like a risky investment. I'd be interested to know what draft picks are also involved, but not enough to search for it.

He would look good in a Jazz uni, tbpfhwy.
 
If you're Dallas and saying we won't be bad for the next 3 years giving up 1st rounders isn't an issue unless you have horrible injury luck. This team is deep. Jameer Nelson is a KGTC guy solely and Devin Harris a heat check guy. So upgrading at PG isn't that necessary when Monta is handling a lot anyways and Parsons likes to handle and Dirk will see increased isos in the playoffs.
 
stein says its happening, with wright, jae crowder and jameer nelson going to boston, along with a first rounder and a second rounder. It seems like dallas' biggest issue is point guard play. Rondo seems like the perfect fit. They might make a huge leap with this trade. I bet they have a subsequent trade for a backup center
