Lakers make offer for Rondo

[Fafnir]

multiple draft picks?  2nd rounders?

Lakers just need to offer Nash + Randle and this is a done deal, imo.  Rondo's trade value is minimal... if you can get another great prospect like Randle, it's about as good as it's going to get.

It doesn't sound like Randle is on the table, they want to send low first round picks for him.

Let him walk then, no need to get Randle,  first of all you calling Randle elite is a joke.  How many games has he played this season? Name me all the "elite" players in nba, curious to see who you pair Randle with in elite. And even worse you call rondo a role player

Randle has only played one game this season because of a broken leg.

Still too soon to tell how good or bad he'll be.  Ditto with Marcus Smart.

Lol Nash, Randle for rondo hahaha

Too much for the Lakers to give up?

Rondo is worth Randle and a First Round (unprotected)

Nash is worth Brian Scalabrine and tickets to Niagra Falls.
They still need to apologize for Celine Dion!

Perhaps.  But not in these circumstances, where the Lakers can sign Rondo outright in the offseason.  Rondo is worth much more to teams that won't be way under the cap this offseason.

But if Rondo is traded this season , his new team gets his bird rights , and are contenders so they will pay to re-sign him . Leave LA looking in another direction . If they really want Rondo they need to cough up talent or a solid pick or 2

"another great prospect like Randle"---since when is he considered another great prospect from anyone other than the ESPN lackeys trying to pump up his value to find a good trade for their beloved Lakers?? Randle has done nothing to show he can be a good player in the NBA.

I'm pretty sure that if the Laker's agree to trade us Randle the deal would be done by now.

My sense is the Dallas rumor, followed by the rumor of Rondo willing to sign there was leaked by Ainge so that the Laker's new just waiting until the offseason to sign him isn't going to work.

Also I would include Green into the package if we could get Randle.

Agreed, although we are not getting their first 5 pick this year (should they slip that badly).

Noooo to Randle..Hate to say that being a UK fan but he had a lot of injuries already...had problem in high school, foot problem at UK and now this and he is only 20 or 21...he may be injury prone and body may not hold up in NBA future

I have a deal for LAL. Randle, Lin and Nash for Rondo and Wallace. That is my offer.

If not trading Rondo to the Mavs is what I tell them. Good luck trying to get him out of Dallas in FA, Fakers.

The only issue with Wallace is I don't think many teams will want to be saddled with his contract for another year.

At least with Rondo, Bass and Green (if he opts out next year) they only have 1 year left on their deals.

I think we're stuck with Wallace.

Nash, Lin, Randle

Works straight up - all expirings plus Randle. LAL has to do that deal prior to adding any picks, no?

Since when is Green a throw in. What is wrong with you people? Dude is balling this year.
