Report: Ainge offered Rondo for Stephen Curry

Tim Kawakami of the Mercury News reports:

By the way, this is probably why Boston recently contacted the Warriors to talk about the outlines of a deal potentially centering around Rajon Rondo-for-Curry (which I believe the GSWs flat-out rejected)…

If Boston got Curry, the Celtics would be in position to flip him straight to New Orleans in a Paul package.

I generally agree that Rondo is a better player than Curry, but I agree with the Warriors shunning the swap possibility because Curry is someone whose valuing is still rising, while Rondo’s is about as high as it’ll ever get.

Rondo's value is as high as it will ever get? Has the kid peaked at age 25?

To quote Mr. Triple Double, Ainge is a madman.
