Now I'm usually Mr Optimistic and all but trade rumors seem to be appropriate.
Boston sends out: Rajon Rondo, Brandon Bass, Barbosa/Collins, possible draft pick
Detroit sends out: Brandon Knight, Andre Drummond, Corey Magette
Why Boston: time to rebuild and the only person of serious value on this team is Rondo. You get your center of the future on a kid with tremendous upside and point guard of the future. You also get very good cap space with the expiring Magettee deal and shave almost 11 mill at the end of this season. Keep your own young studs but also remain competetive.
Why for Detroit: Joe Dumars looks at Rondo and sees a lot of himself. He lands his super star point guard who's just really getting into his prime. You also land your starting PF with nice spacing ability that helps already has chemistry with Rondo and allows Monroe to have the paint to himself.
Boston Starting 5
Knight
Bradley
Pierce
Garnett
Drummond
Remain competitive and young/talented with good flexibility.
Detroit Starting 5
Rondo
Stuckey
Prince
Bass
Monroe
Don't tell me that team is not a solid playoff team still with very good youth.
Might need some tinkering but if Boston was to "blow it up" this would be a good deal for both teams.
