    You have yet to experience the awesomeness of debating with Bobby and RocketSoonerStro.

    They think Chandler is the holy grail.

    A few things.

    Is this insurance for Westbrook?

    Why would OKC give up a first with the way they draft?

    It doesn't work that way.

    Rondo will have a huge cap hold, Parsons will not.

    If you trade for Rondo, that is it, your team is completed. You have little or no other ways to improve.

    Missing "re" and "m" should be "b". reb---rebound(Jordan Hill).

    Or RR ---Rajon Rondo.

    Parsons might get 7 to 10 million /yr. Odom is the guy you look at.

    He doesn't have the combination of youth + potential that Batum & Hayward had, have. Really can't compare him to those guys.

    I predict NO trade.

    Why?

    J.R. isn't around to break it. And no trade has been breaked without him.

    My only advice as the trade deadline nears...

    Look at what hooroo's signature says: Trade for Rondo, Keep Parsons
