Could Rondo and S & T of Davis land us Westbrook?

[LilRip]

again, i said i'm not comparing Rondo and Westbrook. i'm just tired of the people who paint Westbrook in such a bad light when he's obviously not that bad. and don't be revisionist. It's written in text.

A.
1st statement: he's not a real PG and has a low Bball IQ
2nd statement: And im not saying Westbrook is low IQ overall, but he's low IQ compared to those guys.

B.
1st statment: that fearlessness is what's going to get westbrook injured sooner or later... And i can say give him two years and he'll have suffered a career ending injury, both of what we just said are both just as likely to happen
2nd statement:  im not saying being fearless is a bad trait in a basketball player, but attacking the rim repeatedly without even looking at your options and matchups offensively especially when your not even converting your shots at a high clip is not something i want in my PG

Can't you say the exact same thing about Rondo? I mean aren't just about 100% of Rondo's shots at the rim? At least Westbrook has some what of a midrange game and can shoot the 3 at a respectable rate.

I honestly don't even understand the statement to be honest. I've never heard of attacking the rim as a bad trait anyway. Player's at all positions get injured for various reasons. Do you have some info to back up statements such as this?

Fair enough

When i said he was low IQ i was saying that with Rondo and other high IQ points in mind. For his position and for where people have him (top 5 point or whatever) he's overrated in that aspect

Fearlessness + wrecklessness = high risk of injury. especially adding in his low IQ when it comes to running an offense and reading the defense. Which lead to a lot of bad offensive trips for OKC in the playoffs

Rondo averaged just under 11 a game this year. He only actually attempts 3 or 4 shots a game at the rim he takes about 3 1/2 jumpers a game making them at a 41% clip. Not to bad for someone who's a "horrible" jumpshooter. So no you cant say the same for Rondo

Are yall even reading what i wrote? I said attacking the rim repeatedly and wrecklessly AS Westbrook does only leads to turnovers and bad offensive possessions which is a big reason for why they lost that series vs Dallas and almost lost to Memphis

Fans need to stop lumping Glen Davis with Rondo. We can win many games with Rondo. If you are still Danny dumb to believe you can win games easily as well with Baby, disregard this message. I don't know when, where and how actual Celtic fans equally the lump their deficiencies, but we are talking to extremely different games. Tired of fans lumping this loser with Rondo.

The only two PG's I would consider trading Rondo for would be D Will or CP3. Both could be had because neither may want to stay in their current situation, especially CP3. D Will may also opt to leave NJ/ Brooklyn.

I do think that Doc would be excellent for Westbrook, as he has been for Rondo. I don't like Westbrook with our current roster. He would try to take too many shots away from Paul, Ray and KG. Chemistry would not be good with Westbrook initially.

Longterm, it might work, but would much prefer D WIll or CP3.
