Rondo?

-The ability to create an OK possession with the ball in his hands
-Semi-competent NBA defense.

That's it. He also makes it impossible to get elite offense unless surrounded by 4 shooters (not 3, 4, so it won't work with Chandler out there), and the things that he does get you are easier to replace than 20 minutes of the best finishing ability and shot-blocking you'll find on an NBA bench.

Chandler creates spacing. More spacing than a lot of shooters.

The idea that what Rondo gives you is easier to replace than Wright is pretty farfetched.
