Source? Reputable one that says it's a done deal, please. (Otherwise, no need to start a new thread. There's already one that's 40+ pages strong.)

There are several on Twitter, including ESPN and Woj, sort of.

Fire Danny Ainge.

Wow. What are we doing?

Wow, I've been wanting this to happen for about 3-4 years and now that it has... I can't imagine a world where it's happened.

Brandon Wright, and a late first. A stopgat vet in Jameer Nelson. Based on Rondo being an expiring contract that is not a bad haul.

Wow.

Well, let the tank begin!

edit: feels like the Walker trade all over again, except we've been expecting this one for 5 years instead of never seeing it coming.

My favorite basketball player of all time. Damn it. What a **** deal. Rondo must have wanted too much money to re-sign. **** the Cavs for stealing Love from us. Wright, some late 1st, and we didn't even get rid of G-wall what the **** Ainge...

Brandon Wright? Nelson can be traded once again. He's an OK replacement at PG.

It actually makes us a little better right now. But, I don't see the end game with any of these guys.

Ugh. You win Cuban. You win. So pissed off (and the Mavs are my "second" team).

Is this a joke? Worst trade of Ainge's career, probably some major agent power-brokering behind the scenes. Need confirmation..

2nd round pick??? Would have been better if it's two first rounders.

Wow. I admit I'm a bit deflated. I wanted more.

Bottom line is that Rondo's injury and inability to step up when called upon to be the man lowered his value. Was a fascinating player to watch and pre-injury was so damn good.

Time to root for Dallas for the rest of the year.

I honestly can't believe this happened...This is a really...really bad trade.
