They traded 3 bench players for a top 10-15 PG

Not sure how this can backfire for them.

I guess less depth, but Nelson and Crowder were meh, and Wright ain't much either.

Yep

I'm not sure 2 ball dominant guards like those will work either.

Their depth took a huge hit too.

I read the title as "Romo" at first.

He's a very solid player

losing depth cannot be understated.

They take a hit to their depth, and Monta Ellis will have a huge drop-off. I guarantee it. I still think this might be a solid move, but it is not a league changing move.

This is how I see it. Cuban knew the Mavs had no chance to compete in the West with Nelson at PG, so this at least gives them a chance. Obviously not having a bench will hurt, but they were not winning the West as it stood. There's no way this isn't a positive for the Mavs.

Exactly. It's a net positive and anyone who thinks otherwise is just plain crazy.

Rondo could be AMAZING with Rick Carlisle.

Lol at the Houston fans downplaying this since they didn't end up with Rondo.

Rondo is amazing. Put him around some guys who can play and watch out. Dude is so underrated IMO.
