Rondo to Knicks possible?

Sorry.. don't have one. But the Knicks are making moves, according to someone that has first-hand knowledge.
 
It's all over twitter that they offered Shump for him, and apparently they got laughed off the phone
 
Really? That's not what I suspected was offered when I was told.. I was made to think it's close. Who knows.

Why does Shump keep showing up in rumors with Farieds and Rondos and whatnot? He's solid, but he already plays 30 min/game so it doesn't seem like he has a ton of unknown upside or anything.

Thing I read was Shump + Amare for Rondo + Courtney Lee + x. I think Rondo + Wallace is more likely... Wallace has the extra year over Amare, which gives Boston earlier flexibility in their rebuild.

Rondo + Humphries + Lee for Amare + Shump would work as well.

But honestly? If I'm Boston I don't trade Rondo for Shump only to give away some salaries. I wait for the return and try to rebuild his value. Same way that Orlando can pretty much get sth real back for Afflalo if he continues to strive on both ends of the floor.

Hmm Boston takes back the horrible Amare contract and gives away the horrible Gerald Wallace contract.

Isn't Shumpert at his ceiling? Bad shooter, scorer that is a good defender.

Rondo is by far the best player in any of these deal. If I am boston I am demanding draft picks.

No doubt. That deal would be almost the worst imaginable for Boston. Rondo is worth a lot, imo.
