    Rondo can help the Mavs, but Angie won't give him up for free.

    What about a three way trade with Houston using the Lin$$ to obtain a player to use in a Rondo swap?

    I don't think Dallas flipping Wright and Ellis for Rondo makes them better.

    Lol boston is dumb! Monta is not the answer. I think dallas and Boston are BSing, trying to jack the price up.

    So why would Boston trade for Ellis when they should be clearly be trying to get young talent and picks?

    Is he at least expiring?
