It is looking more likely that Boston Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo will miss the preseason and some regular season games, according to CSNNewEngland.com.

The Celtics have no timetable for when Rondo will return as he recovers from a torn ACL in his right knee, but he is making progress.

Rondo did some work on the court with new coach Brad Stevens last week.

"He's obviously limited in what he can do on the court," Stevens said. "But he's a worker. That was one thing that was very noticeable."

ain't no rush

He's doing a Derrick Rose.

Only Celtics will actually be lost without Rondo.

They would be even with Derrick Rose...

Man, what a rough offseason for the Celtics. First they lose their coach for somebody untested who has never coached an NBA game in his life, then send two of their better players in a really lopsided trade to a fellow conference team, they drafted a white guy from Gonzaga with long hair in the first round, now Rondo might miss large chunks of the season.

You have to wonder about some of the choices the front office is making. Does Danny Ainge even realize he's headed in the wrong direction this season?

He's already admitted that trading Perkins was a mistake. I think he's just cutting his losses and hopes he doesn't get fired in the process

No doubt, they gonna tank this year.

I thought Doc made that claim, not Ainge?

What do the Bobcats call it?
It can't be tanking since they're doing it season after season like the Clippers of old.

Rig for Wig...

Nah!
If Celtics get Wiggins, he may perform a full "Len Bias". Won't like to see that...

Why would he perform a Len Bias ? Because the hypothetical draft in which the Celtics draft him? If that's the case, every player the Celtics drafted in the lottery should die of drug overdose.

I would have unleashed shit blizzard on SteveHTOWN's insensitive joke on great Canadian player, but he's a lawyer now. I can't risk ridiculous lawsuit which lawyers like to throw at random people these days. Consider freedom of speech no more around that guy.
