my motivation is basically all about greater flexibility for the summer of 2015 (the Cs cut a large chuck of guaranteed salary). and i'd rather pay Thompson $6mil than Wallace $10.

I am not interested in decreasing flexibility for the summer of 2014.  I am also not interested in Thornton.

Fine -- the deal I proposed this morning makes more sense anyway.

Big trade

Rondo, Wallace, Lee, Bass

for

McLemore, Fredette, Thomas, Thompson, Salmons, Thornton, 2014 1st (top 5 protected), 2014 2nd, right to swap 1sts in 2015 & 2016

I think Sacto would want to see Rondo playing and healthy before making it, but I think it is a trade that would seemingly make sense for both teams.
so we lose our best player without getting their best player (who is not as good as ours) but we take on a bunch of their garbage?  horrible deal.  At least the 4 players we're sending out are productive this year.  can't say the same for theirs.
