On his Twitter page, ESPN's Ric Bucher commented on a trade rumor that somehow escaped us, Rajon Rondo for Tracy McGrady: About the rumored Rondo-TMac trade: figment from Bos offering Ray and Rajon around this summer.

While I'm always ripping Bill Simmons for writing ridiculously long columns with one too many movie references, I do read the guy's stuff when I can. He does amuse me and I respect his basketball opinion. In the Sport's Guy's basketball preview, he has the 62-win Celtics beating the Cavaliers in the Eastern conference finals, but losing to the San [...]
