Rondo has been the best player on the C's for at least the last 3 years, and they've been in contention for chips. Rondo can be the centerpiece on a title contender. I can't say the same about LA.

And I like LA. But what has he really done? Is he that much better than Z-Bo, Bosh, or Pau? I understand you're a PDX fan, but c'mon. He ain't a franchise player.
