Pistons could use Jennings as trade chip in deal for Rondo 

Post#1 » by Laimbeer » Wed Aug 7, 2013 1:08 am

The Boston Globe reports that despite the Pistons' sign-and-trade acquisition of Brandon Jennings, they still very much have their eye on Celtics guard Rajon Rondo...

Just because the Pistons acquired Brandon Jennings in a sign-and-trade deal with the Bucks doesn't mean they've lost interest in Rajon Rondo. In fact, they could eventually use Jennings as a trade chip and seek to acquire Rondo. There are going to be several interested parties in Rondo, and that number could increase when he shows he's fully recovered from anterior cruciate ligament surgery.

Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy
