The question is more: are you willing to tie up your cap space on this guy, especially when the salary cap may fall? Right now, I don't know that I would do that with Rondo.

You've got a 23 year old PG who even his detractors admit is ALREADY among the top 8 at his position, who just had a great postseason, and Celtics fans are ready to let him go. I just don't understand that at all.

I think you want to see a season-long great performance from him before you lock him up long-term with max money. Paying guys based on one postseason (though of course he's certainly had his moments before then) is probably not the wisest move.
