This is clearly a move to win for this year which is what I would do if I were Danny. http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=a6y8qeaI think Toronto would take Rondo's contract in exchange for Bargs and they get a potential future star in Rondo. The Celtics get the players they need to compete for this year and next. |

Bleh, no thanks. I'm not looking for a trade that helps in the short term.

Well if you're rooting for the team to go for it this year, which I am, then I don't think you'll find a better deal than this. And actually, I think it's a pretty fair trade for both teams to be quite honest. Celts get Fields which is a reasonable exchange for Green. At least Bargs gives you some size and you get a point guard you need for this year and next. For Toronto, they get a good player in Green, star they can promote to their fans for next year in Rondo and a potential future center in Fab Melo. |

I don't see why they wouldn't. I know I would if I were Danny. |

Why? Because they don't have Rondo?  |

They never had a chance in the first place. Compare this Celtics team to the Heat, Clippers, Knicks, Grizzlies. Would you really bet them over any legit contenders right now? |

Not that it matters a lot, but I think that this squad with Rondo would have matched up fine with the Knicks, Grizzlies, and Clippers in the playoffs. |

Yes. Look at all the big games he had in the playoffs, figure out which of Bradley/Lee/Terry/Green/Bass/Sully you expect to have games like that on a regular basis in the playoffs this year and get back to me. |

Well, if you really want to have that debate, I'd be happy to.
1.) Did Rondo ever singlehandely bring the Celtics to a championship?
Last year in the ECF, he scored 44 pts in game 2 and the Celtics still lost
2.) This year, WITH Rondo before his injury, the Celtics were 3 games UNDER 500.
3.)And to answer your question, I expect MOST of those guys you mentioned to step up in Rondo's absence.
I know the NBA is viewed as a one man show, but last time I checked, there's 5 guys on the floor, not just one.
