I don't know. I'm just so scared this all doesn't backfire at us. Everyone's acting like this is done deal, or at least it seems that way.

It's literally too good to be true. :-?

I imagine if it doesn't go through, Rondo will be quite pissed and probably want out.

It's a damn shame I'm banned from the GB. I'd be all up in there. :lol:

Hoever, I decided to post the tweet about Melo on the Knicks board. They're pretty adamant that the Celtics don't have enough to acquire Love AND Melo. I think someone needs to let them know that Melo has the loaded "Trade me to Boston, and if you don't, then I'm going to Chicago or Houston" weapon sitting in his gun chest if he decides to use it. I mean, this is Melo afterall. You know, the same guy who forced the Knicks to trade for him just so he could get extra money. :lol:

Please RR, one at a time. I don't know how I'm handling all of this with KLove, and than he throws Melo in the mix. :/

Rondo going balls out with the recruiting. All of this drama is messing with me in real life at this point.

This kind of stuff is the real indicator as to how long you've been around these parts.

Do the terms "no layups, no easy baskets" or "I'll bench press your house, I'll eat your mortgage" mean anything to you?

I think I feel the same way about Rondo wanting to influence the direction that the team goes in as the T-Wolves fans feel about the prospects of Kevin Love leaving them....

Thats the bad and the ugly aspect of free agentcy....

As a fan, I want players who are loyal to their team.....and not just hired guns....

I hate free agency .......period....

If Rondo actually felt that way, I could easily say good by....good riddence...you know?

Just my two cents worth....

Rondo has a direct line to Ainge - he's not going to be as flighty emotionally as us fans on the periphery.

The best miraclejohan song was definitely the one when Antoine Walker briefly returned wearing #88. I forget how the song goes, but it was all like quiet and sad and then all of a sudden "... and out of the blue comes ANTOINe WALKER!!! ANTOINE WALLKER!! WeeLLlcoome HoOOoome."... it was so ridiculous. I loved it, because it sounded so sarcastic.

Man, Tanguay is probably one of the biggest anti-Rondo journalists, or whatever he is, out there. :oops:

And here is the video of Rondo's interview at the workout today. He trolls the **** out of them. :lol:

I didn't even know the Phoenix was gone :( I lived in Boston in the early 90's and the Phoenix was my go-to publication for everything arts/music. Of course WFNX was the radio I listened to, and their Best Music Polls (and annual shows) rocked. In 2012 I visited Boston and couldn't find a copy of the Phoenix -- now I know why :(

Lol @ I'll eat your mortgage.

Speaking of Perk, Steven Adams told a reporter today that he was tangling with him in practice before KP elbowed him and yelled, "I'm the only silverback here!"

Lmaooo.

Tanguay is a highly intelligent frog capable of imitating human speech (in a limited sense). He's still upset prince Rondo won't kiss him to make his human transformation permanent. I really hope he just hops the fk out of Boston personally. He should go join Donny in Brooklyn.

Hate that dude. Not seeing his face before games is a huge perk to living in Philly.

Steven Adams gets into it with everyone it seems. First I've heard of it being with a teammate though
