... Bill Ingram of HOOPSWORLD: “For the past few days we’ve been hearing rumors that the Boston Celtics might be willing to part with Ray Allen before the start of the 2009-2010 season. HOOPSWORLD asked around in Chicago, where the majority of NBA executives were taking a look at most of the first round draft prospects, and managed to find out a few more details. We have now added to those, with the help of WEEI’s Jessica Camerato in Boston. Off the record, we have several sources telling us that Ray Allen is, indeed, on the block. It’s easy ...

Are the Celtics Really Shopping Rondo?
RedsArmy.com - The Voice Of Celtics Fans —
Via HoopsWorld: Off the record, we have several sources telling
us that Ray Allen is, indeed, on the block. It's easy to make the leap,
as the Celtics have managed to develop some nice young talent around
their Big Three while also managing to win a championship. They might
have even repeated had Kevin Garnett been healthy. It's not a stretch
to say the Celtics would part with Allen, who has an ending contract
next season, if they could add another top young player to the mix.

The World's Dumbest Trade Rumor Marches On, Ignores Time and Space
The Baseline —
An update on what I dubbed "the dumbest trade rumor ever." Since, after being wrong about Jameer Nelson's return, I've dubbed this the official day of self-flagellation. But you have to admit, SVG was mad sneaky with actually making the Nelson news known -- when he probably knew all along.
HOOPSWORLD is in the Chi, kickin' it with every NBA exec in the world. And so, "with the help of WEEI's Jessica Camerato in Boston," they've cobbled together the following update for us:

... to be message board fodder and sources say the report is not true. "Can he be frustrating at times? Absolutely. But no one is ready to give up on him," a Celtics source said." Whoever put the Rondo rumors out there obviously works for someone other than the Celtics." The source said that the Celtics may have had some "very minor" conversations about Allen, "but he's not likely going anywhere, either." Or, we have the opposite viewpoint, from Hoopsworld: ...

DallasBasketball.com —
... And that IS what this is: Horrendous journalism. It’s also a sad lesson that teaches us that a lie garners a website three times the traffic that the truth garners – and thus might explain HoopsWorld’s willingless to lie about a “Rondo Trade.’’ The beauty of the internet is that there is a permanent record of what happened when and of who said what. Let’s examine: THE ORIGINAL RAJON RONDO ‘SCOOP’ This story ran midday Thurs 6/4 at HoopsWorld under the following headline: NBA PM: Celtics Shopping Allen, Rondo?
