    rumor mill is that LA and Boston are considering it...they actually discussed it earlier this year and now it seems more likely to happen with Bostons break-up of the Big 3...

    Rondo and Bass each have two years left on their current contracts, restricting Boston's financial flexibility until the summer of 2015. Trading them for Gasol and then letting the big man go this coming April gives Boston $19.8 million more in cap space—and opens up the books a full year earlier.
    Next summer, the Lakers will have plenty of cap space to go after a big name or two, even with Rondo's contract on the books.

    Imagine if they added someone like, oh I don't know, Carmelo Anthony! Something tells me the Lakers would be able to convince Rondo to sign a contract extension if that happened.
    Adding Gasol would accelerate Boston's already-initiated rebuilding. And Rondo would be an instant upgrade over the soon-to-be-40 Steve Nash and a piece around whom the Lakers could add scorers in free agency.


    Right now, these rumors are just that—rumors. But all the ingredients for a deal are there.

    Not to mention, it's an idea that the author came up with, not an actual rumor

    you wiggas are insane....Rondo's forte is passing...in fact it's all he really wants to do....he wants to control the offense by passing...Doc Rivers was a bad coach hidden by the talent of 3 superstars....Rondo given two high prolific scorers in Kobe and Melo would avg 15 assists / gm

    he's too quick and tough for most 2's....Rondo would run the Point in LA....for example..Wade almost fouls out every time they put him on Rondo...Rondo is too effective of a player and is at his best when penetrating...

    Rondo is a effective but loves to handle the ball. Rondo, Kobe and Melo would need a very strong coach with a good system to maximize their talents. He is a willing passer but also an assist .

    Look at all the idiots that don't even watch the game attack this thread. Rhondo played with KG, Pierce, House and Ray... all ball hogs.

    Rondo's forte is passing...in fact it's all he really wants to do....he wants to control the offense by passing...
    He's literally known for disrupting the flow of his offense to pad his assists, even passing up layups to blatantly stat-pad....









    Doc Rivers was a bad coach hidden by the talent of 3 superstars....
    He coached a team whose starting lineup consisted of Darrell Armstrong, Tariq Abdul-Wahad, Monty Williams, Bo Outlaw, and John Amaechi to a .500 record and won Coach of the Year when most coaches would have sucked ass with that roster

    when you can create a bleacher report and publish it online then it'll move beyond an idea to a rumor...ok dumbass...
    When someone credible (i.e. Woj) reports it, then it's a rumor.... anyone can write a Bleacher Report article, that doesn't mean it's legitimate, dumbass
