    @WojYahooNBA: Rajon Rondo and his reps made it clear to Dallas that the All-Star guard would be inclined to sign Mavs extension this summer, sources said.

    Dreaming of Beverly vs. Rondo matchups right now...Dallas has no frontcourt behind Chandler. A 10-15 game injury to chandler or sprained ankle that keeps him under 100% would be a huge loss for Mavs.

    It's not what "I think" it's what the numbers clearly say. Rondo is a pretty terrible defender these days, it's not 5 or 6 years ago

    The worrying part of a Rondo to Mavs trade is that leaves only Dragic for the Lakers to throw max dollars at in free agency :(

    Rondo to Lakers would've been best.

    Agreed, that will blow anything we can put on the court away. Dallas will be scary come playoff time.

    Where will they get all of there points?

    Dirk, Ellis, and Parsons are going to have to be having big nights.

    Don't care what anyone has to say, Rondo to Dallas is very good for them... We have some work to do.

    they probably asked for kpap, dmo, tjones or a combination of the three in addition to terrys expiring and the NOP 1st


    too much for a PG that cant shoot a 3/FT in this offense

    Almost completely void of defense though. Chandler is the only plus defender there.

    Yup. Lotta people in denial on this one. The Mavs just got better.

    Having said that...they better hope to stay healthy, because they have zero depth.
