Around SBN: Yu Darvish Diagnosed With Mariners Fever

What do you think of this trade?

What if we traded Dhantay Jones and AJ price to the Houston Rockets for Courtney Lee from the Indy area and Chase Budinger..ESPN trade machine predicts each team would increase to 17+ wins each...This would give us proven scoring at the SG position, plus a good energy player in Chase off the bench. The pacers would have a lineup of: PG: Collison/Hill SG: George/Lee/Stephenson SF: Granger/Budinger PF: West/Hansbrough C: Hibbert/Foster With Amundson and Pendergraph as more front court help..I think we would have a great bench to make some noise in the East...What do you all think of this trade?

Wouldn't hate it

But I’m not sure if I like Budinger enough to bring him in. Although, he would be a younger better backup to Danny, so I would be ok with it. I do like Courtney Lee, and I was a fan of trying to pick him up when he was in Orlando. Side note, why is it that nobody makes a big deal that the Lakers have 6 white guys on their roster, and yet everyone called Bird a racist when it happened in Indy? Makes me laugh. What makes it even funnier, is that 2 of the 6 are former Pacers! Must be because they are Lakers I guess. Anyone else have thoughts?

I think it would be a good trade .. it would make us better but not a whole lot better … I think we are all discussing small moves to help improve the Pacers, when what we truly need is a scoring/go to guy … preferably an all-star or borderline all star SG … I like your trade though … Pacers would lead the league in white guys again :D

No they wouldn't

As it stands, the Pacers have 3 white ball players. Adding Chase would give us 4. LA has 6.

not bad

we would have to be confident in stephenson running point. I believe Hill is more comfortable at the 2. I don’t think the rockets do it though.

Would Housten do it

Doubt it. They like Chase down there don’t they.

I think

They do like him a lot. I guess Patterson and Chase are getting a lot of love. I wouldn’t mind having those guys at all the more I think about it, but if we can convince Dahntay to NOT score and only play defense, then I say we should keep him, at least until the deadline. Maybe package an unmentionable name (respecting the rule) and Jones for another scorer at the 2.

I love lee

But I don’t understand why Houston would do this trade. Budinger was a proven scorer last year and lee is probably as good of, if not better of a defender than jones. Makes no sense for them.

This is what I was thinking.

I would like the players, just don’t think the trade is plausible for the reason you stated.

I like it, but I don’t see why Houston would do this.

And it's now my sig

What???

No way that both teams get 17+.

That’s crazy.

talk about a win win

who would’ve ever thought dhantay could be worth so much. i can’t see him adding one win to anyone let alone playing a large contribution to 17. then again, we could just trade granger for…
