Would you do this trade with Philly?

[xmuscularghandix]

Without accompanying moves, no.  The back court of Rondo + Iggy just doesn't space the floor enough.  Now, if there was a way to move Rondo for CP3, I'd be in favor, even though it would kill our cap flexibility.

From Philly's end, my guess is that they at least want some talent / draft picks back for Iggy. 

Like that Clippers pick?

Yes, I would do this deal.  Iggy and Rondo are not a great shooting backcourt, but I think they could make up for their lack of outside shooting in other ways.  It would be interesting to see if they could make it work.

No, makes rebuilding very difficult and I'm not convinced it improves our title chances enough next season to warrant sacrificing the rebuilding process.

Exactly.

JO ain't playing in Philly.
So sending him is just a contract and he'll retire.
He only wants to play for a ring, no point in beating his body up for a first round playoff exit.

Would love the trade though.
Grand theft Danny if he could pull it off.

Well, if JO doesn't like the CBA, he probably ain't playing in Boston either.  He'd essentially retire either way.

There is little upside for Philly either way.

The upside for Philly is that they are out of paying Iguodala, and could then compete in free agency.
