one good turn deserves another. McHale was very instrumental in steering KG away from the Lakers to the Cs back in 2008. If KG had gone to the Lakers, they probably lead the Championship count at this point. So I say it is time to help the old Celtic out, and if but only if Rondo wants out you ship him to Houston to team with Harden and Dwight for the chip.

He didn't give us KG for nothing. And KG wanted to go to another team. I've not seen anything from Rondo that makes me thing he's wanting out......... yet.

McHale didn't "give" us KG. He did the trade that he thought was in the best interest of his organization. He got a young promising offensive center and a bunch of other pieces in return for his disgruntled, aging PF.

How on earth is trading Rondo to the Rockets in our best interest? Unless we're getting Omer Asik, Chandler Parsons (best contract in the NBA), T.Rob and a pick we're doing a bad trade. And I bet you Houston doesn't want to do the above trade.

Rondo won't fit in Houston's offense.

I think Houston's offense could adjust to the upgrade from Lin to Rondo.

Oh whoops, forgot about that trade. Well some combination of Asik, Parsons, filler, and pick then. That's all I'd accept for Rondo. Unless they offered Harden of course.

I think Houston's offense could adjust to the upgrade from Lin to Rondo.

Possibly but I don't see harden and rondo getting along. Harden has the ball in his hands a ridiculous amount of the time and Rondo needs it even more. Two ball dominant guards of Harden and Rondos caliber wouldn't work as well as some probably think. Especially now that Dwight is there to also demand touches.
