I would make moves for shooters. It isn't always about just acquiring talent. "Hey this guy is talented with good stats lets add him".
Winning teams are based on fit and chemistry. This is how the 2011 Mavs beat the Heat.
The purpose of this team is to zig while others zag. The only reason we have any potential chance at all to upset someone we shouldn't beat is by being big and doing what others can't. This would be scoring in the paint at a higher clip than anyone else can due to having the best big men in the game. You surround these two with shooters similar to how Orlando did with Dwight from 10-11.
But, hey I honestly wouldn't expect anything less from fans to get all excited because we haven't made any moves yet and "HEY I KNOW THAT GUYS NAME, LET'S GET HIM!"

We aren't excited just bc he is a name.
Rondo is a facilitator and is exactly what this team needs. He can run the P&R and setup everyone else. He is good on D and can control tempo.
Jrue is going to be the 2. Yes, we need to add another shooter but shite Rondo on a 1 year deal will allow us to make other moves and not mortgage the future with a trade ala the Reggie Jackson deal.
Edit: Not to mention his relationship with Boogie

this more than anything else is driving all of the chatter here.
talk of Rondo having a low floor is weird. he hasn't given a damn about anything other than assist hunting in the regular season for about 5 years. anyone saying otherwise is just looking up stats and hasnt watched him play.
i get taking a flyer on Rondo on a cheap deal for a year. i get wanting to make Boogie happy so that he will stay. i dont get being particularly excited about signing Rondo in 2017
