As a rule I am generally loyal to the players and won't have a knee jerk reaction to things. however...
It seems at this point in time that the team is pretty comfortable without Rondo. Let's say hypothetically that the team continues to play well down the stretch and makes a bit of noise in the plays, are we then at the stage where best option is to look at trading Rondo to address the needs of the team?
Granted, next year with both PP & KG another year older I find it hard that they could possible continue maintain the level they are playing at now, so there is likely some drop off there, but am I wrong in thinking that we could dangle Rondo and likely trade him for 90-95% of the other players in the league...that sure gives us some options.
Anyone else starting to think this is starting to become a potentially realistic option?
The other thing I suppose is, if we do continue to have success, does that inadvertently reduce Rondo's trade value because, from the outside looking in, it's apparent we don't need him and he has become expendable?
