    I think people focus too much on the things that Rondo can't do but don't really give him enough credit for the things he CAN do.

    The more playoff/final experienced veterans we can get, the better

    Mainly because they are things that aren't what we'd really need for him. You can focus on all the awesome things that forks can do, but it won't help you eat your soup.

    Unless something has changed with Rondo, he has very clearly stated he isn't going to stay in Sac Town if traded there. So there won't be any serious Sac Town trade package for Rondo without Rondo recanting.

    Bev won't be a free agent until 2016.

    It would be different if there was a certainty that Rondo would make this team better, but honestly, I'm not too sure if that is the case.

    Isn't there a team option? I could be wrong.

    CBA FAQ:
    "In order to make their free agent a restricted free agent, a team must submit a qualifying offer to the player between the day following the last game of the NBA Finals and June 30."

    Rondo is a complete stud when he is healthy, but when is the last time he was healthy???


    That is my biggest concern. He hasn't been the Rondo we know for a couple years now, which is scary. Deron Williams and Rajon Rondo are two guys that COULD put us over the top, but the risk is nervewracking, and losing one of the guys on this team that I have grown to love would be a killer.

    I'm glad I'm not Daryl Dork Elvis...

    I'm confused - wasn't Morey originally adamant on trading for Brewer because he has 1 more year on his contract, which would possibly screw up their plans on signing a free agent during the off season?

    What changed? (Assuming he really is targeting Brewer)

    Eh, probably just FO back and forth, different rumors getting mixed up. Maybe they called off talks whining about the player option trying to get a better deal, who knows.
