    If that continues to be the case, Ainge is gonna get low balled in a trade. I want Rondo on this team but not at the expense of Parsons. I'd do Lin, Asik, and 1st rounder for Rondo. Thats the same trade Morey offered for D-Will. I think as of right now, Rondo is about as valuable as Deron Williams.

    I'd Rather have Millsap than Rondo to be honest.

    Asik, Jones, 2nd round pick for Millsap might get it done. Horford is a better PF than Center.

    I don't think Rondo has attempted enough 3's to really make a judgement call to say that he can't improve at it. He's averaged less than 1 per game for his career. If he gets to jack up 3-4 a game like Beverley gets to, he probably would be shooting in the 30's.

    The more you take the more you make. He's been taking more this year.

    I think you misunderstand how this works. We rape them, they don't rape us. ;)

    I think the Dunleavy deal gets done, probably as the only move before the trade deadline.

    yep exactly, taking so few threes will hurt the percentage. Well except for maybe Josh Smith. He shouldnt take that many threes.

    Millsap and Dunleavy is all we need. No need for Rondo.

    We don't even need Milsap, I'd rather stick with Jones and DMo honestly.

    His very poor FT shooting is a red flag. He's taken plenty enough of those to know he's not a good shooter. I'm much less confident he can improve his outside shooting than I was, for example, that Lowry would improve his after his second year with us.

    The Bulls would be 4th seed in the East if the playoffs started today. Their playoff berth is virtually guaranteed because the East is so weak. They have little reason to move Dunleavy.

    If they moved Dunleavy to the Rockets for Casspi and Brewer, they'd save over 3 mil next year when they are trying to make moves in FA, they have no reason to hold on to him.

    Milsapp stretches the Floor and if we don't give up Jones it gives us another big, that we can use when Asik is gone.

    They will not win, why bother. They will barely make it out of first round with just Dunleavy for offense.
