Guys you're gonna have to concede that we are either gonna take a risk on someone like Rondo or Ellis (Ellis less of a risk, gets too much of a bad rap imo). Or we are gonna wind up with bottom of the barrell free agents. Too many issues with our franchise for any noteworthy free agent to consider us this summer.
Ill say this Monta is MILES better than any SG we have and fills that combo guard mold we seem to be looking at. I could see he and Boogie getting along as well, both being competitive and southern boys.
Rondo could be washed up or maybe he was traded into the worst situation for a player like him. Charlisle has a system and Rondo is someone thst likes to have the reigns of his team.

Well Monta is a great player. Don't get me wrong. He is a better player than Ben. But the question I keep asking myself is, if he really benefits our team.
Cousins caused havoc late in the season as a playmaker and handled the ball a whole lot. Gay is capable to play off the ball, but his true value comes with his ability to create shots.
Monta can break down a defense and is a good passer, but he needs the ball to play his game.
I saw Tyreke as a bad fit next to Cousins. I saw IT as a bad fit next to Cousins. And the same goes for Monta Ellis.
And I'm hesitant to throw big money at a player, who is not a defensive stud.
We are a bad defensive team and every player we add, should be a good to great defender.
I take a couple of lesser talents, that know how to defend, how to get open and how to move the ball without dribbling over Monta Ellis.

I have no doubt Rondo and Monta are still very good basketball players, and while it's somewhat nice to hear us linked with bigger namne FA's compared to the Maloof years, neither of these provide the shooting that our team desperately needs. I'd probably rather see that money go to Danny Green or something, just someone who can shoot! I think Monta will need the ball too much to be effective, and i think Rondo just doesn't compliment our roster, since we have no shooters in place. Simple as that - no shooting, no need to be on this team right now, unless some trades are made.
