Rondo for Parsons would be a steal. Apparently the Rockets don't feel the same as I do though.

Yeah that's been the rumor.

They'll have to move Parsons to do it, which I wouldn't do if I was them.

I think they want a couple of picks along with Parsons.

Parsons is a pretty important part of that team too.

WTF does that even mean.

No way they get rondo because there is no way they give up Parsons.

Our upgrade at PG would be a lot smaller than our downgrade at the wing.

Long term it's good but it would be sacrificing this years chances to give up parsons in my opinion.

Won't happen. Parson's is Morey's baby (2nd round pick that everyone wrote off), and Parsons is the biggest reasons D12 is in Houston right now.

I would have to think we would get a wing that can score. Would you rather Lin & Parsons or Rondo & Green?

I don't think we make a big move until the offseason. Something like Lin/Asik for Lowry/Ross/Fields/Hayes.

I seriously doubt you get Rondo and Green for Lin & Parsons.

Yeah the best defensive PG in the league and pure passer isn't worth it.

It is known.


Also, Dork Elvis has ALWAYS been a long term guy, so no one is immovable. And Ainge will want picks for this so, that complicates things.

WTF?

Harden needs the ball in his hands to run the offense to his maximum ability.

That's part of the reason OKC dealt him since's he's not a catch and shoot player.

Rondo makes no sense for that team IMO.
