I like Rondo the most. I think a 3-teamer involving Gasol, Rondo, Jennings, and Ellis as principles, with others to make it equitable from a talent standpoint and legal under the CBA, is my pipe dream.
It's hard to say though. You usually can't tell which good veterans are going to be available until closer to the trade deadline. Eric Gordon maybe? I would trade Ellis and whichever young guy NO wants for Gordon.
I don't really want Gasol per se, but would certainly entertain a deal just to unload Ellis, even at the expense of Ersan, or LRMAM and Sanders. It would require a separate trade to clear up the frontcourt logjam and get depth at sg though.
Ellis + young asset for Rudy Gay would work.
Luol Deng would be an option. He's going to be pretty good for a few more years.
You throw enough young assets at a losing team at the trade deadline, and suddenly teams might be more willing to entertain trading guys you don't think would have been available under any circumstances. And the Bucks, in my opinion, are in just such a position where they need to make a deal like that.
ETA: F*** it. I think Dallas is going to end up tanking. Go get Dirk. Cuban would do it in a heartbeat if he thinks it's time to rebuild, and Dirk has gone on record saying they should trade him once they fall to the middle of the pack in the West.
Wut we've got here is... faaailure... to communakate.
