Danny Ainge would become the dumbest executive in the NBA if he did this hypothetical deal.

Howard seems like a terrible investment given what he'll want. The back problems, the attitude, not an elite offensive player.

Since Rondo is out on injury, can he be traded or is that against league rules?

People are so emo and reactionary.
"Howard sucks BLAH!!!" GTFO
Howard just had his back cut open and he's not healthy yet. If his legs do actually get numb during games, then he shouldn't even be playing.
If the Celtics docs check out Howard and decide he'll eventually get back to 100%, Danny Ainge would run Forrest Gump-style to LA to personally pick up Howard.

To play devil's advocate (barely):
-They're 8-1 since Rondo went down.
-A Pierce/KG/Howard frontcourt would be pretty loaded, especially in the east.
-You laugh about it, but they beat the Heat a week ago without Rondo. If they can convert a guy that didn't even play in that game into potentially the best C in the NBA, who's to say they can't do it 4 times in the playoffs?
It's a risky move, but with the way the Celtics have been playing without RR, you can't assume that it would be a terrible move.

Yeah, you beat me to it by a few minutes. The big question is whether or not Howard would extend with the Celtics, and I think he definitely would.

A week later the "doc rivers to be fired??" rumors would start.

I would do this deal now if I was Boston.

Trading an injured pg that you have been dangling for the last 3 years for arguably the best center in the game? Yeah, he would be laughed out of town for that one.

exactly why would you mess with that by adding a locker room cancer like Howard?

Well I am the most brilliant basketball mind on this site.

Yeah, I'm moving from "This would be a good move for the Celtics" to "This would be a great move for the Celtics." Would probably be a good move for both teams. Howard and Gasol clearly can't play together, but I do think Rondo and Nash could (either can run the offense, play Rondo on the best opposing offensive guard).
