Idea: Lance Stephenson (Sign&Trade) for Rondo

[86MaxwellSmart]

I do think the Pacers need to shake things up a bit---Too many knuckleheads on that team.
but I doubt Rondo is going anywhere right now.

It would either be this or have Hibbert involved somehow.

I wonder what deal Stephenson will end up getting?

[gpap]

I'd be on board with him as a small-ball three.  Imagine the defensive backcourt of a three-guard unit of Smart, Bradley, and Stephenson.  If Bradley continues to improve his shooting and Lance improves his distance, too, I think that'd be a pretty [dang] good setup.

Some might say he's too small to be a three, but he's guarded the Lebrons and Carmelos of the world before.  I don't think it's that much of a stretch with the defensive potential they bring.

I love this idea.

I really like Stephenson and absolutely reject the idea that he's some kind of "cancer."

He's a good player who can provide some much needed attitude to this team.

Im 50/50 on Stephenson...if he comes here, that be good..if not, im not going to be upset

[goCeltics]

can't imagine what lance would do on a losing team once his payed, no thanks

i wouldn't take on hibert for bass + bogans, no thanks, he has no role on a rebuilding team that already can't score, and last year was a major regress

As much as i like to help larry don't see anything that makes sense for the c's

Dust ups are common especially for Lance

Yeah, Stephenson wayyyyyyyy to unstable.  Rondo is rock solid between the ears.
