Pacers Offseason Acquisitions

[Dynasty]

I'll give you a sleeper who the Pacers can get for a cheap price.  J.R. Smith!  Give up Tinsley for him.  It's perfect, because the Hornets are probably going to lose Speedy Claxton and need another PG to back up CP3.  As for Smith, he's in Byron Scott's doghouse right now, but he is so talented.  I still think he has all-star potential, remember how good he was as a rookie.

[J*R*23]

just to let you know, there are tons of teams looking at JR Smith so getting him will not be that easy.

Here's a proposed trade that works on espn.com

Denver receives-
Jermaine O'Neal (from Indiana)
Danny Fortson (from Seattle)
Chris Wilcox (from Seattle)
Future 2nd Round Pick (from Indiana)

Seattle receives-
Nene (from Denver)
Sarunas Jasikevicius (from Indiana)
Jeff Foster (from Indiana)
17th Pick in 2006 Draft (from Indiana)
Future 2nd Round Pick (from Denver)

Indiana receives-
Kenyon Martin (from Denver)
Julius Hodge (from Denver)
Ruben Patterson (from Denver)
Damien Wilkins (from Seattle)
10th Pick in 2006 Draft (from Seattle)

dude that is such a huge trade, i seriously doubt that all 3 teams want to change their teams that much.

[Frantz]

I never want Kenion Martin! I prefer Jermaine, really.
I think we need a C and a good SG...
Jamaal Magloire for C, but among the free agents there are Mohammed end Pryzibilla (good for the bench)
About SG there is the draft: JJ Reddick if possibile or Maurice Ager.
But my dream is Ben Gordon, I also trade the 17# pick for him!

[Millertime31]

So our starting lineup would be:

Jeff Foster
Kenyon Martin
Peja Stoyakovich
Stephen Jackson
Jamaal Tinsley

We trade O'Neal for Martin, get a couple of small forwards to back up Peja and Granger, and move up 7 spots in the draft.  If Hodge was good enough to start at shooting guard, or if we managed to get one more quality player, rather than back-ups, I would like this deal a lot more.

[Kilogram]

basically all that trade does is replace JO with Martin, in the starting lineup. I think JO is way better than Martin even though they're both always injured.

I want Danny Granger in the starting five this year !
Does anybody agree with me that Danny was the steal of 2005NBA draft ?

[Jackox]

Does anybody agree with me that Danny was the steal of 2005NBA draft ?

He's awesome, but Peja and Steph Jackson? Too much more considered...

Considering I don’t like Steph, he mostly plays as SG  ...
However Danny has already demonstrated he can play as PF ...he’s tough, he’s an excellent rebounder for his size, he blocks, he’s a strong defender ...He isn’t a down-low player ...ma could improve.  When Peja is on the bench, Danny replaces him.

I think the main problem of Pacers is coach Carlise ...
