The Herald got it right from Rondo’s agent. According to his agent, Bill Duffy, the Celtics point guard has been named to the Eastern Conference All-star roster, presumably to replace Joe Johnson, the injured Atlanta Hawks guard. This would be Rondo’s third all-star appearance. Nice birthday present for RR, who probably should have been selected [...]

We apologize if your comments are being deleted (provided that they are not offensive). We are looking into why this is happening.

CelticsHub.com Offseason Podcast with ESPNBoston’s Chris Forsberg

With the first month of free agency in our rear view mirror and the C’s full roster for next year beginning to take shape, it was time to fire up the old CelticsHub podcast to dissect this team’s offseason and debate some potential future moves.

For this week, I’m joined by one of our favorites, ESPN Boston’s Chris Forsberg to break down the Green team, and cover a wide array of ground with the C’s. A quick sampling of the topics we hit on include

* The recent signing of Von Wafer. What will he bring to the table this season for the C’s?

* The Rudy Fernandez potential trade. With the signing of Wafer, does the team still have reason to go after him?

* The Rasheed Wallace saga. Will he come back or retire as expected?

* Rajon Rondo on Team USA. Will he make the final cut and is there reason to worry about him playing so much this offseason?

* The Shaquille O’Neal option. Chris and I debate whether Shaq could fit with the C’s, both on the floor and in the locker room.

* The new power rankings in the East. With so much movement around the league this offseason, we try to rank the new contenders in the Eastern Conference and see where the C’s stack up against them thus far.
