Well, does this mean they are still getting a pay check? Good for most of them. There are some on that list that are stealing
They were never viable Celtics but, I guess this is the way teams are able to sign players. They stretch their pay out over years and years almost a second pension check!

That IS interesting.

This is a great explanation of cap holds and WHY we have them.

MY NOTE:  Read a few of the comments.  I love the one that says "so I guess the reason why the guy on the right isn't smiling is because he doesn't want to play with Rondo.  Jeff  Goodman is an idiot, btw.  "Ask Rondo's former coaches if they like him"?  He has only had two coaches moron.

Poor Chalmers doesn't get it. Being a sub-mediocre point guard only gets you so far.

Wow. Felton has to do 500 hours of community service. THAT is a lot. I'm betting he doesn't make it. They better monitor him closely.



MY NOTE:  500 hours is slightly more than 12 F/T weeks.  He's a basketball player, he has nothing to do for another 8 weeks.  He could bang out (pun intended) most of it before camp.

Rondo's not a great shooter, but he's not God awful. His 3-point shooting will never be a strong point, but as long as you're money at the 2 it's fine.
