I would have been very tempted by either.
I think CHI might be happy to have Rondo on the roster come playoff time. It's tough to work the offense with him off the ball, but he KILLS any other 2nd string point guard. I think CHI will be a handful in the playoffs.

That was an effing travesty, and I will never fully forgive him for it. Now that we have him, his play has been poor, which is on Knight. We are handling him and his poor play the wrong way, and that's on the coaching staff. So there is plenty of blame to go around.
I don't know why people are trying to figure out who has more blame in this situation. Why can't we just accept that nobody involved in this situation has succeeded in doing their job. Nobody. Knight hasn't played worth a damn, cost us a huge asset and then we gave him a ridiculous contract, and the coach hasn't found a way for him to contribute. Three strikes. Move on.
I think we could use some active listening skills here.
"I know how badly you've been hurt by Knight's bad play. I feel you, brother. You're right to be frustrated. I'm there with you. He is bad.
Can I just say something, too?
On top of Knight being a loser, I'm very frustrated with that mean guy Watson!"
Now that I'm typing this, I think Geek and Sundry need to do a bit on "Message Board Counseling." Like Marriage Counseling, but for strangers who argue on the internet even when they agree.
