Elfrid is better going forward, it's really not that close IMO.
Elfrid was almost out of the nba last year before we picked him up

You pursue and take Darren Collison or Patrick Beverly over either though.
I would be happy with both of those guys

The flow of our offense, ball movement was amazing when Rondo was on the court. Teamamtes and coaching staff loved him. We won when he was here. We have been terrible every other year with Gentry. Dont break the bank for him, but no issue bringing him back. We either have the worst guard situation or close to it in the NBA.

I question whether you want a true PG at all with Jrue and Zion vs. more guys that can play off ball. That being said, you can't question the leadership and intangibles he brings. His practice habits started rubbing off on guys and Jrue/AD were watching a lot more film. It'd be great for Zion to get exposed to the maniacal work ethic of a basketball genius.

He's shot under %.300 more times than he has over.
He has improved his shot as he has gotten older

In a 15 year career, he's shown that he cant shoot.
Shot 36% from three just last year, so this is just not true
quote:
If there was a separation stat, Rondo would lead the league in furthest distance from a defender. Like %5 of his three's are contested.
So he has good shot selection and sets others up for easy shots too? sounds good to me

Jrue would be guarding the other teams best guards, and rondo averaged almost a steal and a half a game, not great, but not "biggest defensive liability"

Guarantee you that ad and jrue would take rondo back in a heartbeat, you think they didnt like winning games and being in the playoffs?

Has Elfrid ever been on a team with a winning record?

I'm all for bringing him back if he's going to be our 11th or 12th guy averaging less than 10 minutes per game.

I want guys that can score the damn ball and have 3pt gravity.
That’s what we need. Long range bombers and guys that can create a shot.

Because he is going to be expensive relative to alternatives, want too many years to come here, want a starting position, is wildly inconsistent, and he would be anchoring an offense with at best one spacer.
It worked with Boogie because Boogie and Mirotic are good three point shooters and we had a rotation of shooters that almost always had 3 shooters on the court at all time.
A starting lineup of Jrue, Rondo, Zion, AD, and a low volume 3 and D guy is going to crush our offensive flow.

Why? He got paid by Los Angeles because he helped lead the Pels to the 2nd round. Did he really do anything this past year to justify a contract above $3-$4 million?
