Thing is, you always have to be willing to pull a trade when it's a discount, but Rondo/Ellis would be awful together. It'd be like the Toines all over again. Sure, Ellis may move on after this season (or at least ask for more money) and Rondo brings more grit and defense, but unless Ellis is part of the deal, it might actually hurt us short-term. Rondo isn't going to ask out of Boston just to backup Ellis here and an Ellis/Rondo backcourt brings none of the shooting that we'd need (neither is a great jumpshooter and both need the ball to be effective on the drive)
