    What's hilarious? Lowry is beasting it, he should be te starter on the east all star team. He will still be a coaches decision.

    I'm starting to doubt we will be able to get Love, Aldridge or another star... Eff it! lets get Rondo with Asik and Lin.
    Sure we may have a shot in a year and a half from now to acquire 3rd star but we don't have time to lose. I would really hate for one of our stars to miss a lot of time due to an injury because of the pressure.

    rondo contract is up 2015 the same time love and LMA are free agents so it doesnt even matter. You get rondo and BASS for lin & ASIK and ask question later If you can at this point.

    I like love and LMA but me personally I would rather have Bosh which could be a free agent 2014 or 2015, love and lma take 20 shots a game, lma likes to post up just like howard, love doesn’t play D, BOSH is a humble guy that can play D, Play within a system better than those 2, he rebounds, sets solid screens, can hit the 3 or mid range and is proven to be able to play with stars "lebron & Wade" for some reason I just see love & LMA getting in the way of howard & harden. Yes I would take either one of them but for FIT on this team I would take them in this order BOSH > LOVE > LMA

    No it is not debatable. There are six relatively healthy PGs performing at a rate currently better than Rondo has in last three years. Rose is still likely better than him as well even though I expect both will be worse than before their injuries.

    Rondo gives you elite length at the 1 position while already having it at the 2,4, and 5 spot.

    Morey loves pass first PGs he don't care about his PGs scoring he tried to get Rubio dragic just didn't want to accept our offer Lowry wasn't going to cut it now his focus should be on acquiring our 3rd star and he happens to be available. This the exact situation morey loves star player on a bad team or a team in luxury tax hell (harden and OKC) or free agency dwight. Rondo can play any style any system he can play half court or run and gun he's been limited playing in the slow down eastern conference the chains will finally be off and he can run and gun with us. I just hope this deal happens.

    We need a point guard that can run the offense and throw a pass inside to Dwight Howard effectively/consistently.. Rondo would average 12- 13 assist in this team.. We score enough points.. Why wouldnt Rondo be the point guard we need, I think hes exactly what we need.. He also plays very good defense... oh not to mention he also rebounds the ball very well...

    I really feel like Howard would average over 20 points with Rondo running the offense..

    Why do the rumors all seem to revolve around Asik AND Lin + _____ to get Rondo?

    All it takes is one of those Lin/Asik contracts to make a deal happen.

    A trade IF any will be Asik being dealt and IF a deal requires Lin to be included I am sure Morey will consider it. IF Rajon Rondo is to be had then having another player like Beverley, that can play D on the perimeter will be golden when the playoffs come around because we all know how the game slows down to a half court game in the playoffs.

    I would take rondo and bass then sign camby, bass would be great coming off the bench in the playoffs, he hustles hard has a big body, plays solid D, was watching him last night knock down jumper after jumper agaisnt the heat and he hits free throws. both contracts end 2015

    Lol. In the off-season you were preaching that there is no way Beverley would start over lin. We obviously don't know what McHale would do

    The whole offense would prosper and Harden would be fresh for playoffs if Rondo was the quarterback. They will not even sniff at wining at championship with either Beverly or Lin as QB.

    I would love Rondo, I just dont see him being traded for anyone on the Rockets. (excluding our 2 superstars)
