In the weeks leading to Rajon Rondo tearing his ACL, chatter throughout the league indicated that the Celtics were primed to shake up their roster and make a trade.  Yesterday Celtics President Danny Ainge took to the airwaves and spoke about the Celtics' trade speculation.  

"We are open and listening, but we don't feel pressure to do anything," said Ainge. "Whether we win every game or whether we struggle, I think it all depends on what opportunities are presented. We want to make some change to help improve our team....Nothing has been talked about with Paul....Nothing is close to being done. I too would like to see Paul retire as a Celtic.That would be great. We're all attached to Paul. He's been great for the city, the franchise, and he's been a true pro. Having said that, if something came up I would talk to Paul. My job is to do what's in the best interest of our team, regardless of my personal ties or my personal feelings with the players."
