You don't say?.......Dog must have ate my homework that day? :o :D

Wow. this is Bad News.

Well, I guess that Smart gets some 1st string burn. He'll easily beat out Pressey.

This might be the most depressing season since '96-'97 and we haven't even officially signed Evan Turner yet.

I'd think he would be looking more at an extension now, if anything....... Being "injury prone" has to hurt his chances for a 5 year max contract deal elsewhere?

He may have to settle for less?

I suspect the team would like to sign him reasonably.... he should still have value....

But weather they would keep him or trade him is anybody's guess?

What the..

I was generally curious to see if I was going to be dead wrong and if 'super Rondo' was going to make an appearance. I think the good news is this injury won't really effect him that much. You can even practice shooting with your right hand and dribbling and such...

I went here to see what's going on with that Cleveland deal. Now this.

Can anybody point out bright spots to look forward this season? Smart will start, that's given. But is there any other positives? Badly need good news.

The important thing to remember is that if you are a Rondo fan this gives you one more year of excuses

I hope he never roller skates again.

But yeah -- let's hope this really was a fall and not a thrown punch.
