With Rondo traded with the Clippers, what do you think will be the Clippers chances this season?

is it a good decision to trade Willams for Rondo?

Williams is a good 6th man, he can generate points for the team if needed but Rondo is more on managing the play.
Which one is more useful for the team?

Perhaps the two, Howard and Green are just rubbing it in to the Lakers, they let both of them, and they are the one specially Green who lead Sixers to their victory.

I think why Lowry was not traded for the Lakers is that Toronto is asking too much, THT, Harrell and Dennis Schröder. I think Raptors is asking too much.

Lakers understand the value of their assets, they'll not going to any deal that they won't gain any compensation. If Raptors are asking for this two players for getting Lowry which is no longer at his prime.

Lowry might add good offensive stuff but they don't need it that much once LeBron and AD are there to work for them, maybe that's why the deal didn't materialize.

Raptors will keep him till summer and have his free agency, let see if who will sign him up after this season.

He is a 2 time champion, what more can you expect?
Clippers has a legit chance of beating the Lakers or anyone who will reach in the NBA Finals with Rondo, so I'm hoping he will stay healthy/
I'm already expecting a good ball movement with him manning the floor.

Because they area all scorer, they don't have a legit PG that is on a star level, Rondo is the answer to that.


I expect that too.

I saw this news today and I wish to see the improvement after this trade. Bulls isn't strong as this season started and would like to see them go up in the rankings since this trade has been done.

I think this is a good place for him to retire, Lou will not play too hard anymore, he knows he has zero ring chance now, he had that with clippers but no longer. Rondo is a multiple time champion and he has the chance to actually play great on playoffs, playoff rondo is a thing people joke about, I believe clippers made the right choice by acquiring him.

I am not saying Lou was a bad player, but during playoffs you need someone who can go another level and bring you success, last year they were terrible to lose a 7 game series when they could win, and that is why I think it was obvious for Clippers to change some things, they lost Harrel to their biggest rivals as well, so they might as well get some in return, even if it was via Atlanta. I believe this turned out to be a great trade for them, Hawks will not be gaining much from this for sure.

I've seen it mate.

That utterly destroyed Harrell's momentum for that dunk but I have no comments as said because he's known for that.

I hope that next time he'll be cooler and chiller when the court gets hotter when he's in and pissing off a player.

Drummond was just bought out by the Cavs and is now a free agent. He could sign with the Lakers anytime now, and I expect we’ll hear something in the next few days if not later today. The likely landing place is with the Lakers, but there are other suitors involved, including the Nets.

I think Drummond is more useful than Lowry in the Lakers roster, they need a big man like him, hopefully they can sign him soon but the trade deadline is over I guess, and I don't know how they'll be able to sign him but hopefully they can acquire him, if not this season, then next season.
