I'm open to dealing Pierce, but while we're talking Lakers, I think they would much rather have Rondo out of anyone on our team.
The question is from me anyways would be like GreenFaith said; would Gasol be available in exchange?
Hopefully, both teams would go from there. And I also agree with Greenfaith on that I'd rather Rondo and keep Pierce. Assuming the premise that this is a guards' league is actually true, it'd probably be easier to replace Rondo than it would be to protect Pierce. People have mentioned Ramon Sessions. I dunno if that's doable, but it's better than nothing.
But, overall, I feel like there will be better offers out there for Rondo than for Pierce.
