The Celtics coaching staff may be about to be depleted even more. Per the Boston Globe's Gary Washburn, assistants Ben Sullivan, Aaron Miles and Mike Moser are expected to join Ime Udoka's staff in Houston. Former Celtics assistant, Damon Stoudamire, already left Boston to be head coach for Georgia Tech.
So here come more headaches for Celtics head honcho, Brad Stevens. He may be still mulling whether to keep going ahead with Joe Mazzulla as head coach, and Celtics fans appear to be divided on that same subject. In my recent Twitter poll, the majority of responders chose to keep both Mazzulla and Jaylen Brown (43.8%), while 18.1% voted to get rid of both.
We will be following & writing about the Celtics reshaping the team somewhat over the summer. Started with the situations of Joe Mazzulla & Jaylen Brown. We are interested in your input.https://t.co/sHmH63uA0c

Maybe it's time to bring another former NBA player into the coaching fold, particularly if that player is a former Celtic. We are talking about 4X All-Star, 2X Champion, Rajon Rondo. Rondo has been pegged as a future NBA coach for years, and he has certainly been through the playoff wars.
Rondo's present plans are to join the coaching staff at Kentucky and finish his degree there. The only possible glitch in the idea of a Boston return for the volatile point guard may be his potential compatibility with Joe Mazzulla. We can't forget the (almost) physical clash between Rajon and coach-at-the-time, Doc Rivers.
"The feud between Rivers and his point guard led to an incident during a team meeting in the locker room in which Rondo cursed at Rivers, who responded by trying to fight Rondo before the "fracas" was broken up, a source close to the team told Sheridan."
I, for one, think it is time for an NBA veteran player to join the coaching ranks in Boston. What do my readers think? The Celtics coaching staff may be about to be further depleted as 3 assistants may be joining Ime Udoka in Houston. How about a veteran former NBA player, even Rajon Rondo, joining the Boston staff. Look f7oir my article.
