  Completely agree.

  Well, when your takes have grown to the point where they have you saying that every single player in the league other than Cleveland's big 3 is trash, no point in picking up some other trash to supplement (or replace) the trash you already have as support pieces.

  And from Amico:
  
  #Cavs reportedly in the process of acquiring PG Rajon Rondo from the #Bulls for a mid-level trade exception.
• SportsAndLady

  

  Love the Korver trade. Not so much a fan of getting Rondo. But who knows?
• Sonofanump

  Always thought Rondo a cancer

  I have always hated rondo. He seems to be a fucking cancer, but if he is willing to be a back up PG to distribute to the weapons I think I can be down with it.

  Re: Rondo cancer
  
  If there is anybody that can handle a player like this, it is Lebron. (see: JR Smith).

  That's true. If he's cool with simply passing the ball, he'll work out.
