I think MEM, for one, is giving up too much...Conley, Mayo, and Gasol for Rondo....

lol yeah... If Memphis was going to give up Conley, Mayo and Gasol for Rondo... we'd just trade Rondo to Memphis.   Crazytime

1) don't think conley is that great,
2) rondo is signed up for the next 5 years don't discount that,
3) gasol is a free agent next year.
4) they also get thornton in the deal, who was pretty good last year, look at his numbers, surpised ppl ignored his inclusion

maybe it could be adjusted with thabeet instead of gasol, with thornton staying and the griz getting bradley instead

so

I don't see why Memphis would do this. They are giving up too much to get just Rondo and nothing else.

Also, the Celtics give up Rondo, three bigs (granted one is supposedly retiring) AND the potential steal of this draft for a marginal upgrade at PG and an overpaid C?

No thanks.

Why doesnt anyone understand that Rondo is a top 5, maybe top 3 point guard in the league and Chris Paul is a ball dominate point guard on a team of veterans who needs the ball. Seriously, end these stupid Chris Paul ideas.

Plus, no team will ever make a trade in which they take on 9 or 10 players in one move. These are just a waste of time.

I think the Celtics are giving up too much too.  Rondo, Wallace, Baby and Perk?  Just about all our bigs!

ppl think either rondo is too good to be traded away or not enough to net a marginal point guard, a pretty good wing and projected big by himself with bradley btw i wouldn't do a rondo+bradley for thabeet, conley + mayo but ppl here think otherwise.

also gaffney & layefette & wallace trade fillers, all designed to be waived and bought out so the hornets would be getting 7 players max and trading away 4, hardly usual as some have tried to suggest

To add to the confusion of why this thread was started, this post where you are trying to emphasize your point makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

I dont think I have ever seen one team trade for 10 players at one time... Think about these things man, its just illogical.
