Celtics give Rajon Rondo $55 million extension

[west]

If Rondo is worth 11 mill just cause he fits Boston's system - - I guess Jameer Nelson is worth 10 mill a year playing in the Magic's system.

If Mop head is worth 7-8 million per then Rondo is worth 11 million per.

You're paying 11 mill a year to a guy LeBron makes a highlight block against everytime they play. A guy Delonte shuts the f*ck down everytime they matchup.

And you talking about Andy?

Boston is the laughing stock of the NBA right now.

Quit hating and watch Andy play. I'll take his 50+ offensive fouls drawn a year while you cry "flopper!" over and over again.

I'm not hating,just because he drawn 50+ charges a year doesn't mean he worth 7-8 million per.
Just go ask any real Cavs fan,they will tell you how terrible his contract is.

All real cavs fans know that Andy is a beast on the defensive end, and 42 mill for 6 years isn't a bad deal for him.

From some of the most respected Cavs fans on this board.(not PB of course)

WTF are Ferry/Gilbert thinking? Just when I was starting to think they had their sh!t together.

God help us...

He isn't worth any more than the MLE. If this is what he was asking, it should have been a no-brainer to let him walk.

This is absolute ****!ng horsesh!t. I can't believe we just did this. I hate this guy. I hate his flopping, I hate the way he attempts to play offense, and I hate the fact that he gets 30 minutes a game when the truth of the matter is, he's a 15 MPG energy guy.

He's not going to get any better. He is who he is. I am a guy who tries to look at the glass as being half full, but I really can't with this.

Hahaha, we deserved to get laughed at for this.

That was probably before the details of the deal came out, and the headlines all said we gave him 55 million, which is kinda a BS price to pay for him. But as details came out most of the top end was all incentive based, so it really works out to be a 7 mill a year deal, which isn't bad at all. So 4 posters represent the entire cavs fan base in your opinion?

I just want to say again how happy I am for this deal to get done..the perfect money for the perfect PG..Parker makes more money and I think Rondo is the better player overall..soon to be a 1st time all-star this year and many many more to come after.If we lost Rondo,we have no PG of his caliber for YEARS to come..he is one of the Top 5 PG's in the league and we just locked him up for 5 years..if we didnt sign him,some team would of gave him a crazy contract for missing out on the LeBron,Bosh and Wade stakes.

Boston needed to get this done IMO. I don't think the fans would have been happy if Rondo got away.

So the thread is pretty much exactly what i said? People freaking that we supposedly gave him 11mill a year?

Rondo is crazy good at his age and improving everyday,he already proved he is capable of winning a championship as the starting PG in his 2nd year in the league and he has gotten a lot better since 2008..IMO he is being paid the fairest amount possible..not to low and not too high..There is only 2 PG's in the NBA i'd rather have running the Celtics for 5 years rather than Rondo and that's CP3 and Chris Paul.
