Rondo Trade?

If that small amount of saved cap room is actually the difference in getting good players then I won't complain.

Super weird that Burks has such low BBIQ or whatever that he can't be part of a team offense. I was so sure he'd be an awesome scorer of the bench.

8 million is pretty significant, also the 12 million next season.

As many people have outlined on here before, clearing Burks is a huge part of being able to re-sign Ingles and not be wildly deep in the LT. Very few have actually said how we are going to clear Burks though.
 
I would do that trade and keep Rondo. He played pretty well last season and the playoffs. The Bulls would have beat Boston had he stayed healthy.

I would not want him on this team. He's terrible in the locker room. There's a reason he's never stuck with any one team for any substantial length of time despite being a solid player.
 
Do I need to put the part where I say to waive Rondo in bold size 7 lettering? Do people just read the first sentence and hit reply?
 
Rondo sucks bruh!!!

It's not an awful idea. I wish we could get a draft pick or some money from them.

Since no Burks deal has happened yet, I assume there hasn't been anyone willing to just take him. I'm guessing the Jazz are waiting on Hayward to sign. If he doesn't sign, there isn't the same urgency to dump Burks. The Jazz can give Ingles a 12,000,000 contract and still have 20 million left in cap-space (assuming the Jazz don't sign Hill to if Hayward doesnt comeback).

*If* Hayward comes back though, I bet the Jazz put up their first round pick in order to get out of Burks contract.
 
woah, that's a hot take (and a terrible one).

He is one of the best PG defenders in the league. He is also one of the better facilitators in the league. The big knock has been that he cant space the floor and shoot well enough from three. This year he shot 37% from three and last year it was 36.5%. Those numbers are good enough.

He could definitely push Exum and he could definitely start for the season if needed or move out of the way for Exum if he steps up.

People knock on him for his attitude and other issues but kids grow up and Rondo seems like he has matured a lot.

What is your knock on him?
