Danny Ainge talks about Rajon Rondo without saying anything new

Lather, rinse, repeat.

Robert Mayer-USA TODAY Sports

Get ready.  As we gear up for the season we'll hear more soundbites from Danny Ainge.  Which means we're going to hear the same things over and over again.  Like this.

Danny Ainge: Rajon Rondo not trade bait - Worcester Telegram & Gazette - telegram.com

"The truthful answer is I really don't know," Ainge insisted. "I have no intention. I'm not trying to trade Rondo, but because he's a free agent this summer, he assured me that he wants to stay in Boston. We'd love to keep him in Boston."

And this.

"The possibility of a trade is not out of the question," Ainge said. "Nobody is untradeable, but I don't see that happening."

And this.

"I love Rondo," Ainge said. "He's a fun kid to be around. I've seen a lot of growth in him as a person and maturity through the years."

And this.

"I don't think our team is in contention for a championship," Ainge admitted. "We are a young team and we're in the development stages."

So basically nothing new today, but I figured I'd pass these quotes along anyway.
