Celtics May Trade Rajon Rondo to the New York Knicks


NBA basketball analyst and avid Celtics fan Bill Simmons believes that the Celtics will trade their star point guard Rajon Rondo by the trade deadline. 

"I think Rondo gets traded to the Knicks in the next four months,” Simmons stated “… I actually like the thought of Rondo and Carmelo (Anthony) together. I think he would get him the ball in all of the right spots. I think that would work.”  Rondo is renowned for his ball-distribution skills, and Anthony loves nothing more than to shoot the basketball. 

Here’s how the deal would work out in Simmons’ mind: The Celtics would send Rondo and forward Gerald Wallace to New York in exchange for big man Amar’e Stoudemire, shooting guard Iman Shumpert, a 2018 first-round draft pick and one protected “pick swap” within the next five years.

  1. This is funny because just yesterday Rondo was seen getting breakfast with Kobe Bryant before the game on friday night. I have to disagree with that Rondo will go to the Knicks. I believe he is going to the Lakers
