[ATH] Rajon Rondo Wants Out

[BlackWhiteGreen]

He's a UFA next summer. You're going to sell the farm for a guy who might sign elsewhere?

Yeah, they'd never do that.

Missed over a year with the ACL, had a lockout season, and he's still played 505 career games in 8 years. Aside from the ACL he's missed 37 games in 6 seasons, or 6 a season.

Here's a quote from an SB Nation article that was posted recently:

Rajon Rondo has told the Celtics he "wants out," longtime Boston sportswriter Jackie MacMullan said in an ESPN video released this week. The comments were published in a supplemental video from Around The Horn, the ESPN game show on which MacMullan and other sports personalities regularly appear. Jay King of MassLive.com brought the video to the internet's attention on Sunday.

In her comments, MacMullan said that Rondo has indicated to Boston that he will not re-sign with the Celtics when his contract expires in 2015 and that he would not re-sign with the Kings, who happen to be the most obvious trade partner given their desire for a distributing and defending point guard and young assets. MacMullan also discusses Rondo's relationship with Doc Rivers.

She doesn't really say exactly that - she just says "he's already told them he wants out". If this is true - and again, this wasn't even aired until it was posted on YouTube (great find btw, took till today for most of NBA media to pick it up ) - he's angling for a trade, not leaving in FA, and MacMullen hasn't written anything about it even though you could get a big column from all the options she threw out there. No backup from the other guys with sources as yet so I'm sceptical.
