Same here...... **** Rondo and his drama. Pau is ballin and somehow I think he's second nut fell in the bag and he grew some balls cause he is ballin like he's on a mission. I think Beasley and Session or Arens and Beasley will definantly help this team.

I get the feeling we're looking for TPE, fillers, and 2nd round picks...or nothing.

Waiting for the right situation to come along and if not then at least they keep our big pieces to make a run at Dwight or Deron in the summer. It's a calculated gamble, probably a waste of a year, but I'd do the same.

Right now we're 3rd in the West, with our vets hopefully getting a boost from the less intense playoff schedule...I'd say they're just gonna roll the dice and hope we catch fire by April. Just have to figure the damn road out.

Dwight's not opting into that final year of his contract and neither is Deron so neither Orlando nor Brooklyn could do a S&T in the summer. If the Lakers are going to do something it'd have to be now.

We can't even trade for Lowry anymore because the guy has a bacterial infection and is going to be out 2-4 weeks. This is putting FO in serious pressure. With that being said, I think they'll pull the trigger on Pau for Rondo because we are losing many trade options due to injuries.

H-town would commit robbery on us if they only gave those two back to us.

LOL, you're kidding right?

I'd probably do Pau for Rondo/Bass.

I still prefer to just keep the core, trade for Beasley and Sessions/Dragic

So what do you think they're holding out for? Trying to get Rondo without offering Pau, not trading picks for Beasley or Sessions....are we trying to win now or save our assets? Or are we just saving our assets until the deadline then unloading something?
