I was (mildly) in favor of the rondo trade at the time, but looking back on it, even IF had given 100%, I think we still gave up way too much for such a limited player.
So it was definitely a mistake, but I don't begrudge the Mavs for doing it. I remember thinking that the Mavs had to do something that season, and that seemed like it was the best move available. Obviously it wasn't, but hindsight is 20/20.
