Rumor: Rondo to the Kings (based on fake twitter accounts)

[Rondo2287]

Don't have anything hard, but my friend who works for Fox sports says that he is hearing Rondo to the Sacramento Kings Rumors.  Nothing specific as of yet, but I wanted to throw it out there.

Tyreke Evans and change for Rondo?

Well Evans and #5 are both apparently available.  Ainge apparently liked Evans during his draft.  Ainge has put Rondo on the trade block in the past.  Thus, you can combine those things to come up with rumors that make sense, but that could just as easily be nothing more than pure speculation.

Evans and the #5 I'd bet.

It would have to be Tyreke and #5 in my opinion. But I don't do that trade.

Hmmm. What do you guys think about a Tyreke-Bradley backcourt?

[esel1000]

please no...

The only reason I even mentioned it here was because of the Tyreke and #5 pick being mentioned earlier today and how much we know Danny loves Tyreke from the get go.

I'd really want Cousins in any Rondo-to-the-Kings trade... He's a headcase, but the guy is a beast and a ridiculous young talent (21 and he's already a 20, 10 and 2 guy) ... Would love to stick him next to KG for a couple seasons.  Cousins also makes 3.8 mil... so we're talkin about freeing up another 7 mil in cap room... which when added to the "25 million" might give us enough money to go hard at Deron Williams ... or a Steve Nash for a season... and still retain most of our players.

Losing Rondo would be a bummer, but I think there might be some point guards available this offseason.  Supposedly Steve Nash is strongly considering goign to the Raptors... which might mean Jose Calderon is available.  Again... Rondo is far superior to Jose Calderon, but if we're getting major value for Rondo, Calderon might be an excellent pick-up.  He shoots lights out and is very capable of getting 9-10 assists a game.

Twitter is blowing up because some idiots with fake Sam Amick and fake Chris Broussard are spreading Rondo trade rumors.

Drummond? With the #5 pick? Drummond and Tyreke?

I have a hard time seeing Ainge trading Rondo for Tyreke given how each player has played over the past 2 years. So I don't put much weight into this rumour.

Danny Ainge would need to be highly enticed by some prospect. It looks like Robinson and Beal will go 2nd and 3rd. Then Barnes, Kidd-Gilchrest and Drummond in some order. I wonder which one of them Danny is hot for. I am thinking Drummond. Too much of a chance Barnes goes earlier. Danny would need a higher pick to ensure Barnes.

PG - Bradley
SG - Tyreke, Ray
SF - Pierce
PF - Garnett
C  - Drummond

Plus, two first round picks and some assortment of J.Green, Bass, JJJ, Stiemsma and Dooling.
