I would love to say that Rondo has to stay. The team plays horribly without him. But it’s all about winning, and if Ainge can get a point guard with a jump shot… You honestly don’t know if Rondo will develop his shot. It and his attitude have been a vice of his even when he was at UK. Tubby Smith was saying the same things Ainge is saying now. I think Rondo has the potential to be the best point guard in the league in a few years, but its all about the ring and what makes the best team. If that doesn’t include Rondo next year, than so be it.

And Rondo also need to practice 1000 shots a day to improve his jump shot and I agree with Cory West with the big three you focus on being a passer and defender

Danny Ainge if you don’t get Chris Paul Deron Williams Monta Ellis Devin Harris or Derrick Rose for Rondo then you lose out Rondo is a triple double ready to happen and hid jumper will get better think about you almost beat Orlando without KG you won a championship with Rondo at the point and he was a worse shooter then stop tryin to shop your future point guard for some mediocre backup

Rajon Rondo is a must keep. As Ainge pointed out, he is a YOUNG player. The Big Three are getting up there in age. Rondo is the future, the player you can build off of after Pierce retires/leaves. Ainge acts like this is the first time he has had to deal with a player who is still maturing and improving his game. Hopefully Doc Rivers who has taken Rondo under his wings kinda puts a halt on any possible trades.

If Ainge does trade Rondo; he would put the Celtics in the same situation as Detroit by trading Chauncey Billips away. The kid will develop a jump shot. But when you have KG, Paul and Ray on the same team it’s hard to get better as a shooter. So as a young Point Guard you would tend to focus on being a better passer than shooter. So as the Head Coach and The GM you are partly to blame for his lack of shooting skills because of your emphasis on the BIG THREE.
