Dallas Mavericks v Sacramento Kings

Putting Rajon Rondo, DeMarcus Cousins and George Karl on the same team seems like a volatile situation but the Sacramento Kings are reportedly pursuing it.

Sacramento made one of the first calls to Rajon Rondo and they have gone hard after the free agent point guard, reports Sam Amick of the USA Today.

Rondo is very tight with the Kings’ Rudy Gay, who has vocally led his recruitment.  Ironically there was a report a few days ago that the Kings were shopping Gay in order to make room for Rondo.

The Kings have looked for another point guard, one who can play the pick-and-roll and run Karl’s up-tempo offense. Rondo is a high IQ player, a gifted passer and a plus defender. His lack of a steady jump shot has held him back.

It’s not on-the-court Rondo that could be a real challenge. It’s the moody, competitive and combative Rondo off the court that seems an odd fit with the other big personalities in Sacramento.

On the otherhand, DeMarcus Cousins or George Karl could very well be on their way out as things are getting really testy in Sacramento with many conflicting reports.
