So, hypothetically speaking, what do we like better:
Rondo for Evans and Cousins, or
Garnett for Bledsoe and Jordan?
Rondo for Evans and Cousins all day. Would've done it while Rondo was healthy too, don't envision why anyone wouldn't do it.
The reason that I wouldn't do it is that Rondo is considerably better than either of those two guys at this point in their careers. You need elite talent to be a contender in this league, and there is no guarantee that either Evans or Cousins will ever reach that level.
Sure, those two both have some potential, but it would be a pretty big risk.
Hmm, Rondo for Evans and Cousins is a low risk, high reward move. Evans is a [dang] good player, and Cousins has shown to be a force at center, that simply needs a more disciplined approach. But as far as the ability to play the game goes, those two add more than Rondo alone, particularly to this team's roster.
