It is an undisputed fact that Celtics roster is aged and they don't really have any real hopes for competing for the championship this year. With KG and Pierce at 35, and Ray Allen at 38, the aging Celtics lack the vigor and physical presence to make the top their own.
DH on the other hand, will be a free agent this summer, and don't really want to re-sign for Orlando, as the team is not competitive and is trailing at the last places of its division. In fact, had not been for DH, Orlando would probably ranked among the worse 5 positions of the NBA. Orlando having understood and accepted the fact, that they're gonna lose their biggest star, is only natural to want to trade him.
2 days ago, a rumor surfaced that HD is gonna sign for Boiston. The trade in order to happen will require a 3rd team (New Orleans). Here's the deal:
Boston will send Jermaine O'Neal, Avery Brandley and JaJuan Johnson to New Orleans. Orlando will send DH to Boston and Jameer Nelson to New Orleans. The latter will receive 2 first (1st) round 2012 (or 2014) picks from Boston plus Chris Kaman and Rajon Rondo.
Such a scenario is ideal for both 3 teams: New Orleans will trade Kaman (has an expensive contract and was injured last season. In addition, they will save money and get 2 players. Orlando will fill in their center spot and will acquire Rondo who is an All-Star material. Rondo is among NBA's top 5 point guards thus, it is a sweet deal for Orlando. As for Boston? well, with DH dominating both ends of the court they're back in the game for a championship. Losing Rondo is tough, but necessary in order to acquire THE top center in the NBA!
