    That would be great but in the meantime I will take the walking triple-double.

    Or a complete team meltdown if Rondo and the others don't mesh.

    Yup, and Howard is shooting the 3 at an even better percentage, I'm sure that'll continue as well.....

    No but I know Rondo is a allstar level point guard and right now he is currently better than Chandler Parsons still as a overall player. Morey knows that and everyone else does too. Does that mean Morey makes the trade heck if I know. I would miss Parsons because he is a darn good player but I would definitely understand. A lot of the guys you mentioned are good but when it comes to having proven championship experience at the point guard position Rondo has done that and he has proven himself to be a allstar in this league all at the same time.

    That's on the coach. The GM's job is to bring in the talent.

    Besides, it would be good for the team for someone to come in and call Harden out for his lack of intensity every the other game.

    If the GM brings in talent that doesn't work together, it's on him. I doubt Morey would do that though that's why I never bought in to the Rondo rumor even though I'm sure there was talk on some level because the OP is pretty solid with their information.

    going from 21% to 38% is still an improvement. A lot of times its about taking more threes. He only took bail out shots from there in Rivers system and wasnt good at it. Brad Stevens system needs the guards and bigs to take a lot more threes.

    Rondo has a reputation for taking games off and stat-padding.

    Chandler Parsons' right wrist bruised and heavily wrapped after yesterday's dunk-a-thon. About to do some shooting.

    This.

    The current squad is talented, but wildly undisciplined at times, hence the routine 20 point leads that evaporates in a matter of 5-7 minutes. Having Rondo as the floor general would cure a lot of those problems.

    If Lin and Bev are still our guards after tomorrow, they need to a much better job of taking care of the ball, especially when you have a large lead.

    Rondo wants to win first overall but im sure he will call players out if they don't do their job

    Yeah, it's not a small sample fluke at all, just like Howard going from 16% to 40% from 3.
