Anyone who says they would not trade Rondo for Russell Westbrook

[vinnie]

Would take Westbrook 10 out of 10 times

Look, "value for the money" doesn't win games.  It gets you the pre-trade Clippers.

Rondo probably won't win a game for the team by himself.  Westbrook can.

Advantage:  Westbrook.

 Westbrook loses quite a few games by himself as well.

Who do you want on the court with 3 minutes to go in the 4th?

Or that Westbrook is NOT better than Rondo, is lying to themsevles, 100% lying to themselves.

talk about baiting

in any event, i think it all depends on the system, the team, and production you need from specific players.  with the celtics roster, i'd prefer having rondo. he has the ability to score, but his strength lies in passing/setting up other players and defense.  i think westbrook is having a better season, but im not sold he is better than rondo (in the context i listed above).

  It depends on the game situation, as well as who's on your team. If you need your point guard to be your go to scorer, Westbrook. If not, Rondo. If either one is going to be your main scorer you won't go that far.
