Because Sac is looking like it will miss the playoffs once again this year and Rondo is a FA next season. Why wouldn't we just wait and try and sign him next season? because the Knicks are a guard short of being a playoff team this season. Even though Rondo is an expiring contract, I would give up the pick to salvage this year. Melo isn't getting any younger and we are trying to also establish a winning culture. The pick would also be considered payment for taking Calderon.

Adding Rondo now makes us better now. Getting rid of Calderon now makes us better now. Getting rid of Calderon's salary next season helps us with cap room. The cost, one 1st round pick. I would make that deal.

Please see Dallas and Rondo last year.

This.

Rondo either isn't going to run triangle or he'll learn it well enough to decide he's going to be coach and make Fisher his b#tch.

He'll ruin team chemistry I'm sure.

Rondo is my favorite pg in the league but it is what it is
