The trade machine obviously isn't updated with new salaries for 2014-2015 yet so I just included extra players that make the trade work in the trade machine. This is basically just Rondo-Bledsoe-Stephenson
Do you think these teams would be interested in this deal. Once Lance and Bledsoe sign there new deals their contracts will likely be relatively close to rondo's. Do you think that a deal like, Bledsoe to Indiana, Lance to Boston, and Rondo to Phoenix could be of interest to each of these teams.
For us having Bledsoe would move G Hill to the 2 which would turn his offensive passivity from a weakness to a strength because he could be a spot up shooter and focus on the corner 3 like he did in San Antonio.
Rondo would be fantastic in Phoenix with the spacing they have. I imagine him driving and dishing to the morriss twins and throwing lobs to Plumlee and Gerald Green on the break. Rondo's lack of a jump shot wouldn't matter in Phoenix because literally everyone else on the team can shoot.
Stephenson and Smart could potentially be a good pair on defense. It would take some work to get them to play efficiently together on offense but I think Brad Stevens is a fantastic coach and would find a way to make it work out. They are also both ultra competetive and I think Ainge would like that pairing.
We could also potentially do a straight up deal with either one of these teams.
What do you guys think. Could something like this work? What would need to change.
