A source told the Boston Globe that Paul Pierce "is already beginning to prepare for relocation from Boston."
This is the second report this week that Pierce does not expect to return to the Celtics. The team can buy him out for $5 million prior to June 30, or the club can pick up a $15.3 million option for the final year of his deal. The Celtics could also attempt to trade him, but GM Danny Ainge has voiced support for Pierce since the Celtics were eliminated from the postseason. "I thought Paul had a terrific year," Ainge said. It's too early to tell what Pierce's future holds, and the decision is entirely out of Pierce's control. It would be strange to see him in a different uniform.

According to CSNNE's Greg Dickerson, "the company that Paul Pierce hangs around in" do not believe Pierce will return to the Celtics next season.
Dickerson takes it one step further by saying that he doesn't "think Paul Pierce believes" he'll return to Boston. This needs to be taken with a tablespoon of salt given the way it's phrased, but GM Danny Ainge has already acknowledged that Boston's offseason begins with a determination on Pierce's future. There are no easy answers for the Celtics. If Pierce doesn't return, Kevin Garnett's future will be very much up in the air.

Celtics GM Danny Ainge acknowledged that the first decision of the offseason will be on Paul Pierce.
The team holds a $15.3 million option on Pierce and can buy him out for $5 million before June 30, but a buyout seems unlikely. When asked what goes into determining Pierce's future, Ainge replied, "Conversation with my coach, conversation with Paul and his representatives. There's a lot that will go into it," he said. Ainge also said that Pierce is "one of the greatest Celtics of all time and that will play part in it," adding that Pierce "still has a lot of basketball left in him." It doesn't sound like "Trader Danny" is set to move on from his core just yet, meaning we could be looking at a very similar Celtics team heading into next year.

Paul Pierce said he plans to play next season regardless of whether his contract is bought out by the Celtics.
Only $5 million of Pierce's $15.3 million team option is guaranteed next season if the team buys him out before June 30. Pierce has made it clear he wants to retire as a member of the Celtics, but it's possible he might not have a choice. GM Danny Ainge said the Pierce decision will be a "very hard" one for the franchise. We can't imagine Pierce in another uniform, but we'll just have to wait and see how this plays out.

Rajon Rondo
Sidelined
Rajon Rondo could be dangled in trade talks "in case a deal makes sense," according to the Boston Herald.
We've heard Rondo could be traded in the "right deal" for a while now, but Chris Paul, Russell Westbrook or someone of that nature is not walking through the door. The C's will only move Rondo if it's a trade that unquestionably makes the team better, and it's not expected that scenario will be available to Boston. The Boston Herald writes this "nearly annual look into Rondo's trade value has to eventually reach a limit," but we wouldn't expect it to be during the offseason. The Celtics don't even have a true backup in place at point guard.
