Rondo+Anyone other than KG or Pierce for Evans and Cousins. Hell, throw in Chuck Hayes's contract to match the numbers.
Evans is a FA at end of year prolly gonna want a ton of money while Rondo is locked up for 3-4.
I say both teams should do this trade because even with Evans and Cousins the Kings are going nowhere fast while Rondo would certainly make them more watchable and perhaps give them an actual PG. For the Celtics it's a bit riskier I think cause Rondo is your only proven young player BUT I believe in my heart that he has maxed out with the Celtics, Rondo needs his own team with a bunch of young athletic guys who can run the Celtics will never be that as long as KG and Pierce are around. Meanwhile Cousins gives the Celtics size, rebounding, shotblocking pretty much everything they have been lacking. While Evans is not nearly as good as Rondo distributing I think his slashing would and scorers mentality would be a nice change of pace for the C's offense.
As a Celtics fan I would do this I'm tired of Rondo and I don't think he'll be any better once KG and Pierce retire.
I think Rondo is the best player in this trade at the moment, who knows. If it's Rondo for Cousins straight up I don't do this from the Celtics side because they would be seriously fucked at PG, however Kings would prolly do this in a heart beat straight up and see if Rondo+Evans combo works.Comment
