Minnesota/ New Orleans trade idea

by jdpourciau on Jun 13, 2008 12:06 PM EDT

Hey guys, I have an idea about a way to trade Tinsley, and J.O. and I wanted to get your thoughts on the matter. I am a hornets fan, but my primary interest is in whether or not you think the deal between 'Soat and y'all is fair.

Here it goes:

Indy gets: Pupu platter (Buckner, Antoine Walker, Jaric), Corey Brewer, and the ability to trade first round picks from Sota. They get Hilton and Mike James from N.O.

'Soat gets: Dunleavy, and J.O., and a first round pick and Hilton Armstrong.

New Orleans gets Rashad McCants from Sota and Tinsley and Diogu from y'all.

Does this sound fair? The New Orleans-Indy part is probably harder to swallow but you save two extra years of Tinsley's contract.

I know Dunleavy had a great year, but it might be an outlier, and he can't play adequate defense against the 2. Also, he kind of replicates alot of what you get Granger. Buckner and Jaric have a while left on their contracts, but Walker's deal is expring and you get the 3rd pick in the draft. Thoughts?

Um...

No thanks, I like Corey Brewer but unless we maintain our 11th pick with that deal its never going to happen in my belief or at least hope I guess. Would you do it if you straight up gave up your pick… we would throw in Marquis Daniels, Jeff Foster, or whoever else possibly could work

Giving up Dunleavy, O’Neal, Tinsley and Diogu… for Corey Brewer and a bunch of horrible contracts… no thanks

Plus…. McHale won his old teammate Ainge a championship with charity…. why the heck wouldnt he help Bird (Bird was the star)?

I dont know thinking about it more I would have to say if we really swapped picks the Pacers would do it…. but it would be pretty amazing for the Pacers if they could get the 11th also….
