With a name like that Stauskas is perfect for the Bucks with the tradition of names like Lohaus, Schayes, Sikma, Mokeski, Brickowski, and Kristkowiak.

My pre draft obsession with stauskas was frightening. He was number 4 on my board. Needless to say I'm all about trying to scoop him up.

Mayo, Knight, Henson for Derrick Williams and Stauskas.

Wolters/Marshall
Stauskas/Bayless
Giannis/Middleton
Parker/Giannis
Sanders/zaza

Is my rotation until we can move Zaza for another young big. Unfortunately were stuck with Ersan.

I like Stauskas, but he's only a good prospect. LaVert's a better prospect, imo - not to mention McLemore. If the Bucks trade Sanders, what do they do for a center? Do you really want to put all your eggs into getting one in the next draft? Henson and ZaZa are too problematic to be answers.

Im not familiar with some of the young prospects from other teams that you are talking about. What are the Bucks biggest needs or targeted pozitions for a trade?

I personally don't like it at all. I don't think Adams ever gets as good as Middleton currently is, and calathes is a backup to me. It's just extremely lateral at best IMO. I don't like knight but I think adding him would be dumb, he has far more value than that poo poo platter.

Middleton seems to have an attitude issue and we'd clear some guys we don't need. Plus I really like Adams.

He likely does have some entitlement issues.. I can understand it though when he played in all 82 games last year... and select players who are getting playing time over him and playing poorly. It goes against logic.

No, but we (I) will give you Knight and Henson.

A big point guard with excellent court vision and who plays good defense.

Oh, is that all?

Any secondary targets?

I think the Kings would make that deal. They want to win now and we'd be giving them two guys who can contribute and are young. I'm hesitant to toss that many assets into a Stauska's deal but could be convinced.

We are coming for Wes Matthews this summer with the 4/$60 offer. 8-)

To me, that's a no brainer trade for us. I see Stauskas as part of our core then and now have 2-5 more or less "set." Run Wolters/Marshall the rest of the year. Sign Beverley to a deal you know Houston won't match. I would love that core 5 - still have a deep enough bench too.

Grantland has a big feature on Rondo that has me wondering what he'd look like running with Giannis and Parker:

http://grantland.com/the-triangle/rajon ... ree-agent/

Rondo’s value is difficult to quantify, in part because he doesn’t fit into our established taxonomy of NBA superstars. He amplifies the goodness around him, but he can’t create it. When we question Rondo’s value, we are actually talking about the value of a pass-first point guard in today’s NBA. The league’s most valuable assets are almost all dominant scorers — everything else they provide is gravy. But Rondo inverts that. He provides assists, defense, rebounds, and only occasional scoring prowess. He’s at his best when he is playmaking for his teammates, but his All-Star years all involved a Hall of Fame supporting cast. The hard part is determining his value when paired with less talented colleagues.

Rondo and his hand would recover quicker than expected. He was healed up not only in time to begin his eighth NBA season, but to play the protagonist in one of its most compelling story lines. He again finds himself one of the league’s most talked-about trade chips, as well as one of its biggest free agents next summer. He is a wanted man.

Article cites how so far this season "he’s put up big numbers that seem to suggest his aggressiveness is back in place."

Celtics fans started a thread yesterday called "I feel this is the year to trade Rondo" with some good takes on both sides of the fence:

IF you guys were to trade Larry, what kind of assets would you be looking for in return? Obviously that leaves a hole at C for you guys so that would clearly need to be filled appropriately, but what else is most enticing? Picks? Prospects? Established vet leadership? Any particular positional need or skill-set that you have been looking for?

ill be interested to see what other people say, but i wouldnt trade him for anything worse than a top 5 pick, or a young pg with tremendous upside and a mid 1st.

not interested in any vets with leadership really unless we somehow have some other outgoing pieces (mayo/zaza/bayless/dudley/knight), and those vets are limited to PG's and C's that are likely worth more to their current teams than larry could be. so really, we are looking at picks or prospects.

I'm not a huge Stauska's fan. But I could do it simply to get Knight out of the rotation.

id do something like larry to the atlanta hawks for dennis schroeder the rights to walter taveras and a 1st round pick in 2015 or 16
for larry i would want to get a 1st rounder with 1 to 2 young players who have a chance to be great players.
the thing with larry is hes such a good rim protector and rebounder that he makes your whole defense better.. hes not much of a scorer but you dont need him to be
