    That would be incredible (not necessarily that exact trade, but just getting Milsap), I would honestly rather have Milsap than Rondo, 9mil a year for him is a STEAL.

    You know what?...I actually wouldn't be super psyched about that deal. I understand Milsap is a better player right now, but I was thinking we'd hold onto jones until we were able to include him in a package for a legit star. That said, Howard, Milsap, Parsons, Harden, Bev, with Lin, DMo, Asik, and Brooks off the bench is a contending rotation.

    I'm already in Pre-Dwight refresh mode. The King has spoken, so shall it be done.

    Fansided:

    According to Sam Amick of the USA Today, the Toronto Raptors and Sacramento Kings are two of the teams that are after Rondo.

    The New York Knicks are among the many teams pursuing the 27-year-old, and the fact Rondo missed nearly a year because of his ACL tear before returning in mid-January is apparently a non-factor for so many interested executives. According to a person with knowledge of the situation, the Knicks, Toronto Raptors and Sacramento Kings are among the “four or five teams” that have been pushing hardest for Rondo in recent days. The person spoke to USA TODAY Sports on the condition of anonymity because of the private nature of the talks.
    Amick went on to say that a Rondo deal is “highly unlikely.”

    Rondo is averaging 9.8 points, 7.1 assists, 4.8 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 27.2 minutes per game while appearing in 10 games since returning from his ACL injury.

    Milsap was an all-star.

    I can't picture that happening. Jones is perfect on this team. Tbh, jones is just straight up better than milsap.

    Would you rather pay milsap 9 million/year or or have tjones on a rookie contract?

    Jones is not better than millsap for this team. Millsap would be a good stretch 4. Jones can't shoot consistently.

    Hi guys, Celtics fan here. Can anyone explain King Drew and Cyber? Are they insiders. As a Celtics fan I'm just as excited as you Rocket fans ;)

    Have you seen Millsap play?? He's not only better.....he's SIGNIFICANTLY better than Jones. His mid-range shot is money, and he's a better defender. $9m is a freaking STEAL for Millsap.

    If true then very bad move. Jones is better than Milsap.
