" Welcome back -- and Callahan free form Friday joining us on the AT&T colony to into your world delivered. It's so point guard Rajon Rondo like he's all involved in the Dunkin' Donuts perks rewards program he's helping kicked off -- that in just a little bit the markers on how are you my friend. But -- a year ago you and your teammates were celebrating world championship now it's a year later and you are watching. The lakers celebrated world championship fair to say that last offseason with a lot more -- I'm wondering did you get attention. Once you're eliminated from the NBA playoffs one of those guys who says -- involved -- no interest in watching what's going on."

" Actually effort in like the -- it. Voted to expand this continue to watch them you know try to get better the next."

" Did you watch the magic -- thing that could've been you I mean you came pretty damn close the beaten them. And then they I think could have -- going to want the whole thing with a few breaks. They obviously laws lakers but and they they went along way after knock and you go as a."

" They debated which you. They gave Cleveland grave harm and that those Bob -- you wouldn't expect said that. I gotta -- imagine about the credit we just couldn't get it it and against."

" We would you have covered Derek Fisher on that three point -- would you that would Jameer Nelson didn't get enough given the free with a three point lead."

" Now thank have -- situations you know whatever coach permits they've -- pilot. And."

" thought it was a discussed and dissected about you know how it ended for the Boston Celtics and there -- some school but that said after all the to you you -- teammates have gone through against the bulls in the entire you know playoff situation is simply ran out of gas in game seven is is that is that too simplistic of an analysis."

" A bank that I bank in Orlando that operate in that -- let met against the is the playoffs you gotta get it right yet. You know we never would have that's. -- completely real audience. Maybe. -- the boat and we get debt is at the Atlantic I give credit -- against seven. -- this single was again."

" Result have you been around town since the season ended for the Celtics or you've got out of town you're nowhere near an earlier in Boston today but up until today or whenever have you -- Intel general way."

" Just got back from Chatham. The -- in that -- and you were in China. Yes side is -- that. For eight."

" What was happening into China did see they Rajon Rondo -- saw -- on on Chinese fans."

" Especially. Two accidents do. So much as though there."

" Well who what did you do did you sightseeing."

" I'm not I would that Nike. Camp over a Ali and Ambrose when -- two Nike. Goblet campus. What were your impressions of China. There's very interest. To Beijing actually of course I want the great loss and a great man and a great experience. Well you've got a little -- a -- over try to get back right now is working at every -- Campbell."

" If -- just got back from China then maybe you -- haven't heard much of the talk in recent days around here is there might be a possibility. That the Celtics would be entertaining the idea of trading Rajon Rondo at the debate is going to probably go for on talk radio and the newspapers. A have you heard those those story lines and be what's your impression of of of that kind of information."

" A out I've been -- I'd say it matters as trade the trailer. -- much. Bandage him every day to you know the Celtics well this offseason and you know look forward to doing great they actually what we try to intentions so it's great having that happen but it -- attention came. I don't."

" Would you be disappointed if you -- back for the Celtics next year."

" Yeah I would be great as the business. They never know what happened in. Every outrage there country Wednesday. They have enough."

" It's 200. UC Ray Allen and and and Kevin Garnett both of whom got traded penetrated here does is there any part of you that's. That's honored to that's flattered by this I mean the way this team can improve -- trade a guy with a lot of trade value and that's you."

" Yes that's doctors. They was talking to liking me see what happens when -- got to play. You know players in -- at a game a little bit in the playoffs. The cherry on the start to happen. For example -- happen -- all. You know you never know it's it actually goes like this kind of stay focused and I estates this right now so. -- mr. Obama knowing of the temperature."

" What what does a guy like Danny Ainge or Doc Rivers said he viewed -- they say anything could happen today assure you that they're not. They're not the ones making the calls people calling because you have value because they're interested -- you."

" This this is on the it's it's the first -- exit in the child advocates call as much straight. India you can't guarantee that this game. -- talk with any. He can't get -- any arbitrary. -- feel that we have attention to areas in the cup income. Did -- great because there's so we don't want them so. You never know if it."

" Result -- last three or four days when this has been the subject of discussion much has been made about your upside the jury young player a third year every number every significant statistic in your career from your 12 and three has gone up and people were trying to project where you can be ultimately it's a point guard this league. -- a project you're upside and use -- to -- in every did get better but do you think about where you want to be statistically and in terms of the conversation of the best point guards in the league a year or two or three seasons down the road."

" Actually I want to be the best -- going to be next -- I had a they edit this play out -- one to continued improvement. A lot of expectations were not. And become much it is do as well so operative for the working on children's without. -- come. Yeah can be won best point guard in the game and this -- so dedicated work. As far as Timorese thing. Not at and -- want the best one rise to win as many churches that are younger and younger -- that it's one part think you know a total of three is right now but it. One down along these actually period goes well with this great team that we have so far and we went -- championship."

" Resign you only around here three years so maybe that's not long enough to understand how sometimes it works -- trade rumors go out there but I've been around long enough to know that you start to hear stories when when somebody tries to sell the idea. The guys on the trading block maybe we hear some stuff that would make people understand why the so it might want to trade you we -- no particular order -- or five days well. Kind of a stubborn kid you know won't take the coaching necessarily going to have to have his own way and it -- strong and headstrong there's a word -- stubborn and late to a playoff game showed up an hour before -- off and there are some you know some skeletons in the closet is any of that a accurate or undermine fair."

" If you look on the assumption that court -- the things. I actually went duke on the ground game. Edges out try to come and has you know made it public -- and locker room and -- waste. Coveted you know like to come right. Jump right to mop my dear -- glad that Clinton. Had to forget that. You know dignity and legacy games saw early on people like issue you know -- game I think -- This is an option to what you do what game -- Why today coming our. Like -- graduate what I'd do this kind of like my -- an upside down like the comics must -- Some people remember it as they've been obligated you know come -- play. Popping big game affected the way aptly that's what people thought about that are just -- before the game actually like a game a kind of -- it apart not -- argument. -- In Palestine have what it is people concerned about o'clock am Lou late but thus -- that two -- I think. Camby -- as one of a great trade -- about about peace so much. About the win. Abolish state game and I'm a student of the game so. Played well in the coach was the at a -- day. And I have a strong relationships where we do and we can't talking general optical. I guess they each each -- this. A Gaza are they aware. I may disagree with ducks in the day is -- and state both try to win did this change. That was all about. Great player is bodies that it. Now it on -- this should be -- NATO lord always go with the flow to be a leader yet and you know sometimes. Can do what you want to do that -- came aspect yeah they would seem. -- Same. You know I don't look at all outrage in but it sure what I'm -- who were good at that great players that. They have gone off and try to do they also and and be a leader it's it's it's -- their land and they do have some idea to do."

" Result I assume you when Dawkins had this conversation and you've made this explanation about your pregame routine that you get there early enough you sit in the car you envisioned whatever command sold out so -- Is he okay with that routine is the understanding of how you like to handle your business pregame."

" Yes I mean these. He's never accept mr. A bad -- election. About security -- pretty much normal routine. He makes it. And I don't fit on that. In the park he's not going to college in not like you know here but I'm not -- exactly semifinals. Game."

" The only of the car idling do you -- that could be dangers. Which are you in your mind -- max contract guy."

" You know basically one I think I am -- single word. Well want to -- nobody admitted they had faced. I don't. My expectations in the back and -- you know but it then they'll want to be. On the court -- development and it of the best best personal -- that called --"

" Is that a goal -- not just for -- for good young players. Maybe even park coming guys like you do you think. That someday you want to be a max contract guy and and you feel like you're on track."

" But I don't want. But a lot of people public every -- want him back there because. Because let's check -- about a fresh you know operate. He's he's had a fallout if you know win in a lot of -- come you know the next guy he'd like in the job. You know a lot they'd be confused now. Do it is flawed and has. You know a lot of mr. Obama -- found out that game off court issues. You've made Gordon the problems -- out of season. You know get up -- down version of Mac they have you you know precious little. You mentality approach. Knock on the -- has not naming names but it. You know kind in China. And are not common -- Pressure on the net -- abandon. There are trying to live up to about -- maybe elevate my game so. You know about again gas price it won a match that is what they instantly if not he's got to be an -- in the past couple years. Not right to expect -- thank you might -- it may be. One -- Which I think brand wrote another the net that much -- quiet and this foreign element Democrats."

" So with the thirtieth -- that we had -- Maybe one that if -- in recent years. I think the most is probably for this. As all. You want. That spreading -- attributes."

" You want to talk contract. Not with us but would Danny oh you -- those guys who just wants to put that -- put that off as much as possible. And maybe get the free agency."

" And name right. I'm gonna talk of being involved. Started in the vote passed. You know out people who -- that contact person. And I think we're going to try to stick advance -- and more away and better project out you know imaginary. Yeah it's quite startling rate is estimated in a legal right. I indicated for the cover those it among resonant in their contract and let you know whatever happened at. It I guess is that the business."

" Result every year at this time Larry Bird would say -- back to French lick Indiana to work on another aspect of my game to bring another weapon back to me -- with me in the fall what your goal this offseason what are you going to work on this offseason."

" Obama try to improve. My game out poverty. Start to break a couple for him. That I play lashes. Press he would idea it will Lester. And to continue to improve on those days boasting about. One because its net that this seventeen -- An issue on what breed nation as in and out options woes that are drastic like game look at it don't intend it was into the basket. We recognize that what outran a little bit Egypt -- and it's become this aggression against."

" little off topic but I'm wondering. When when Donte' Stallworth. Gets suspended indefinitely by the NFL commissioner a year maybe two years without playing the game because commissioner wants to send a message is that message heard loud and clear by every guy in professional sport that you know but for the grace of -- their goal line."

" Did -- He can't take it very for granted and if humans evolved Cordero or anything as a beverage takes note of the Lee went and -- and these. Or an -- the deputy can. Subject to be suspended all night -- game so we definitely take its opportunity for granite. And take is that the -- and every moment again."

" How many shots we take to that we go to the gym today we go in the gym every day. -- And how many shots how many practice shots with only seventeen does lead to."

" I'd -- astonishing. Ignored them -- so -- I don't want that to follow. You know about that implants since. Last June we want -- was -- clashes. A couple of months off but we jumped right back into this so early. Is Kelly must Frazier like it's you know this relaxing in the amount as well. Last -- Mecca backstage between night. I'm -- and again -- actually has the right handed a couple of days you know -- You know assistant coach coached him you know. But he in my preparations -- going to obliterate this summer."

" If if Garnett is healthy we picky he's going to be do you look at the Celtics as the favorite. About -- win at all."

" Yeah come comforted by umpires but arms. On the investment -- do expect just went and and I guarantee but -- like that that they were much seven and nineteen and I think we can do it -- if -- occasion."

" I guess I should I. There -- would you like to explain the Dunkin' Donuts perks rewards program or should I do that."

" Connection explain all right -- Fanatic but they've he worked with Duncan donuts. And on a new virtual world program. Actually it's pretty simple. It's on the web site and so Roy which I second element that comes back score. I found out -- The program a word customers can use that another caller. What products they. -- fuels. Boston sports. Merchandise and ticket knows except. I think it would where -- program. Visit the -- to visit visited a -- known as usual caller. Musical refer to frame. Yes additional -- so. It's a great program. Some amazing present these. Merchandise for his speech athletes. -- problem -- look at them. -- want my passport. Aren't they great great via. Maybe when -- love -- grant. Is obviously it's Tuesday and -- meet later on this year."
