Why aren't other teams lining up for him? Offering their star pg and/or other assets in return?

Det and Nyn don't have the assets or aren't willing to give up the goods to have danny listen also

Is it more about him coming back from injury that teams are hesistant to trade for him or something else

Its just strange/interesting imo

Like the best of BT's posts, short, succinct, true.

In some ways yes. I want to win a championship and Rondo has won it before.

Unless the NBA has suddenly turned into protecting their assets as their #1 priority

Remember back in the days. Trades for key assets, high picks did happen for just a key rental vets (not even a big star). For example we gave up Joe Johnson for Rodney Rogers pretty much, so that we can try to go far.

It didn't workout but i can see why the trade was attempted.

Succinct...?

hmmm..

succinct adj. , -er , -est . Characterized by clear, precise expression in few words; concise and terse: a succinct reply; a succinct style

I'll take that as a complement

Just because those are the only the only teams mentioned doesn't mean they're the only ones inquiring.  Not a single source called Deron Williams getting traded to the Nets when it happened.
2021 Houston Rockets
PG: Kyrie Irving/Patty Mills/Jalen Brunson
SG: OG Anunoby/Norman Powell/Matisse Thybulle
SF: Gordon Hayward/Demar Derozan
PF: Giannis Antetokounmpo/Robert Covington
C: Kristaps Porzingis/Bobby Portis/James Wiseman

True. But Rondo isn't going anywhere. Danny wants a kings ransom, teams want a fire sale. Too far apart.

So, uh, is there a source for this?
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

Its just strange/interesting imo

  How do you know other teams haven't asked about Rondo?

  Aside from that, think of the other players in the league who are in their 20s, have been to 3-4 all-star games and haven't made any noise about leaving their teams or requested a trade. How often do you hear those players come up in trade rumors? How strange/interesting do you find the lack of league-wide interest in those players?

Did KG make any noise in Minny? Did Ray Allen with the Sonics?

i can't imagine rondo gets dealt unless its for a pretty huge return. we aren't getting that from the knicks, and the pistons don't seem willing to part with drummond, so that seems like a dead alley, too. all these rumors seem to be lazy sports journalists just pontificating
