Hell no! They just traded away the only piece they would have that we could use. They suck for a reason.
For a rent-a-player? Cleveland is the only organization in the NBA that makes the Knicks look brilliant.
Chris Broussard just said on SportsCenter that the 76ers could be a third team that might help us acquire Rondo.

They are screwed if taj Gibson makes the 2nd team all defence, they will put them over the tax and would be the biggest disaster since ummmm Royce? Or the day the veto trade?

That completely kills our bench that already isn't that great. We would have to get at least Bass or Green Back as well.

Dwight not thrilled about potentially playing with Rondo. Rondo is very serious like Kobe apparently.
Who else is trying to trade for Rondo? Because trading him this summer nonsense has to be a secondary move for the Celtics.
