Rondo
Green
Bass
Lee

for

Conley
Randolph
Allen
Wroten

Memphis goes for broke to make a Rondo/Gay/Gasol core, with good solid pieces like Green and Bass and Lee filling in around them.

Rondo/Bayless
Lee/Ellington
Gay/Green
Speights/Bass/Green
Gasol/Haddadi

Boston makes a move to core their roster to a key group and shore up their front line and scoring.

Conley/Bradley/Wroten
Bradley/Terry/Allen
Pierce/Allen
Randolph/Sullinger
Garnett/etc etc

Completely ridiculous I know.

If Rondo play as PG in MEM who is going take a outside shot?
Are you saing Tony have to take a outside shot for Rondo? Or Rudy?
Tony and Rudy are not good shooter like Ray Allen and Pierce.
Are you saing Rondo will take 3 for Tony and Rudy?

I am not saying Conley is better than Rondo. Grizz don't want PG who can not shoot from downtown.

I'm a big fan of Rondo, but the Grizz's (already sometimes abysmal) ability to hit perimeter shots to space the floor for Zbo and Gasol gets worse with this deal IMO. Memphis only takes this trade as the first step in a complete roster/playing style overhaul IMO.
