Pacers Making Play at Millsap?

NUMBERICA said:
If the Pacers are going for it, then Granger is absolutely the last player they would trade.

And considering that he's 28 and paid about $15 million, the Jazz shouldn't be interested in picking him up either.

How many years does he have left though? As long as he expires in time to re-sign our group of (hopefully) good rookie contracts, is he really costing us that much? Not saying I'm in love with the idea, it's something to think about (if it is actually being offered).
 
Several months ago I bored all of you to death with my promotion of George. I want him. Don't think indy will give him up, but if we can get him and Collison, then I'd do it, even though I'd miss the hell outta Millsap. I think Collison is more than a backup, BTW

For sure. He had a great rookie season in a PG centric offense, but still managed to put up respectable numbers for a 2nd year player in a less PG friendly offense. Don't really know anything about him defensively though.
 
Good to be back. And, good to see that the sense-makers are still here.

The thing that hypes me up about George is his (potential) compatibility with a front court of Hayward and Burks. Plenty of play-making there, and they could defend the 1 - 3 while being an absolute match-up nightmare on the other side of the ball.

Burks
Hayward
George
Kanter

Use Jefferson instead of Sap, and you still keep Sap, plus you might even have Collison. I like it.

For ****ing sure I'd rather send Al than I would Paul. 8 days a week. But now we are really getting into fantasy land if we weren't already...
 
I feel like most people on here are really underrating the value of George. I think everyone values him, but Millsap for him and Collison is insane! I have no idea what the Pacers are thinking, but if I were Larry Bird, George would be basically untouchable for now (like I said earlier). He's got great potential. Millsap, no way, but for Big Al maybe. They can absorb the contract too.

Just opinion but I think a Jefferson/Hibbert combo would do a lot more damage in the East than a Millsap/Hibbert combo.

Yes, this is a fantasy land thread where our wildest dreams are brought to life. Thanks for crushing them, dick.
 
I know that I am going to get some neg rep for this but this is the list of players to go in order:

Jefferson
Jefferson
Jefferson
Bell
Miles
Harris
 
Collison has the potential to maybe, MAYBE, break into the top half of PGs in the league in the next two years.

Paul
Rose
Williams
Rondo
Nash
Kidd
Westbrook
Lawson
Wall
Harris
Miller
Conley
Billups
Parker
Curry

Those guys are easily better players. Other guys likely to be better are Hinrich, Holiday, Nelson, Jennings, Davis, Augustin, Felton.

Then you have Collison competing against the Udrihs and Teagues of the NBA. And I didn't even mention the rookie PGs and ones yet to be drafted.

I'd avoid Collison.

Many Pacer fans feel a Hibbert/Jefferson combo as repetitive and plodding, and thus don't want it.
