Also per A. Sherod:

The name that keeps coming up with everyone I speak with about the #Celtics and trades, is #Kings stud DeMarcus Cousins.

i thought most of our trade prayers revolve around sending out multiple mediocre players for one good player... doesn't make sense for us to cut players to make room for a trade then.  What are we doing... dumping Rondo for pieces?

From @SherrodbCSN : "league sources confirmed that there's "growing" interest in Courtney Lee"

Lee and Sully for Gortat?

Varnado was just a dumb pickup by Danny. If he was not good enough for the Heat, i doubt he improved his play so much in a few months to be a promising rookie now. Waste of money

The Celtics needed a warm body as a big and Varnado was a reasonable choice for a short-term fix who likely would be waived at this deadline (although I would have preferred Brian Butch).

Also, Varnado was injured and didn't play for the Heat in summer league and preseason, so didn't get an adequate opportunity to earn a spot with the Heat.

what was the rumor?

Sounded a little whacked to me but:

"The Lakers, Celtics, and Kings are reportedly very close to a trade that would send Francisco Garcia and Demarcus Cousins to the Boston Celtics. Marcus Thorton, Chuck Hayes,Thomas Robinson,and Aaron Brooks to the Los Angeles Lakers. Pau Gasol, Avery Bradley, Jason Terry,Jared Sullinger, and two future first round picks from the Celtics to the Sacramento Kings.**The only reason the deal has not happened yet is because the Lakers are being reluctant to accept the offer."

Started yesterday as very unsubstantiated and implausible rumor.

Hate to say good-bye to Sully and Bradley. Unlikely.
