The Indiana Pacers are on the verge of being eliminated, fueling talks suggesting that the team could make big moves this offseason in hopes of improving their title chances next season.

According to Hoops Rumors, the Pacers, who are down 3-1 in the Eastern Conference Finals against the Miami, could make a strong push to acquire Rajon Rondo this summer.

NBA analysts are convinced that the Pacers need an upgrade at the point guard position if they want to finally dethrone the Heat, and Rondo has been continuously being linked to Indiana.

Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge has been insisting that the All-Star point guard will not be traded, but Myron believes that they are just looking for the right offer to come.

According to Myron, the Pacers could convince the Celtics to part ways with Rondo if Indiana will be willing to package David West along with Lance Stephenson, who is having a breakout season this year.

"The Pacers could get Rondo, but it might take giving up Stephenson in a sign-and-trade along with David West, whom the Celtics wanted to sign after the lockout," Myron wrote.

However, the possible trade depends on Stephenson's willingness to play for the Celtics, considering the fact that the 23-year-old guard, who averaged 13.8 points to go along with 7.2 rebounds and 4.6 assists during the regular season, will be an unrestricted free agent this summer.

Rondo, who started the season sidelined by an ACL injury, averaged 11.7 points to go along with 9.8 assists and 5.5 rebounds in 30 games this season.

Sacramento Kings to Pursue Kevin Love Before 2014 NBA Draft

Aside from Rondo, Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kevin Love is also expected to draw strong interest from several teams this summer after informing the Wolves that he will test free agency after next season.

The Timberwolves are expected to trade Love instead of losing the All-Star power forward for nothing next summer, but teams will make sure that Love is willing to sign an extension with them before striking a deal.

However, the Sacramento Kings are reportedly ready to give up valuable assets in exchange for Love even without an assurance of a contract extension, Yahoo Sports reported.

The Kings, who are reportedly planning to offer the eighth-overall pick in the upcoming draft along with several young prospects, are convinced that Love will be interested in teaming up with DeMarcus Cousins in the next several seasons.
