    Sorry, guys. Batum is just as good as Chris Paul and Russell Westbrook. He's way better than Rondo. Also, sorry for interrupting your awesome discussion.

    Somebody is a grumpy grape.

    Maybe he realized that in a year or two the Boston 'big-three' will consist of Rondo, Green and Bradley.

    At last our evaluation of our players is backed up by objective outside observers.
    (Also our evaluation of our discussion.)

    Yes I would do this. Rondo cant shoot but Rondo is a great defensive player, a competitor, and great point guard. I love Batum but a wing player the quality of Nicolas comes along far more often and are easier to acquire than a point guard of Rondo's talent. We'd just have to get rid of Nate. But that is the plan for every situation.

    Felton and Batum are as good as Rondo.

    MM, you are either Felton's mother - or you are messing with us.

    Together they are as valuable to Portland as Rondo himself would be

    Playing for Nate, I expect Felton to be somewhere between invisible and an outright disaster....so I must respectfully disagree.
