Pacers Making Play at Millsap?

Collison and George looks alright. Millsap is the better player but he's superfluous and Jazz could use George at SF. Collison could be great in Jazz uni.

Dunno, but there's something here worth discussion.
 
Collison and George's salaries add up to 3.8 mil. Millsap makes 6.7 mil next year per Hoopshype. Per David Locke salary have to match with 140%. 1.4 *3.8 = 5.32. We need another player to make this work. I like Colison and George as players. If I had to pick I would take George and Posey with a draft pick. I would then waive Posey. Of course we could go the other way and make it Memo + draft pick for Posey and George.
 
Pacers have nothing I'd want to make this deal worthwhile.

**** Granger - guy's useless unless the ball is in his hands and he makes about a billion dollars a month. He's been the man in Indiana for the last 4 years and hasn't managed 40 wins in any of them.

Hill and George are decent complimentary players; but neither will be as good as Millsap.

They're not trading Hibbert - he's the only true center under contract right now.
 
I have a really hard time seeing the Pacers getting rid of Hibbert. If the Jazz and Pacers are going to be partners, the deal is going to be centered around either Granger or Collison.

The big question for the Jazz is who do you want to keep out of Jefferson and Millsap? One of them is going to be traded before the end of the season... it just depends on which one brings in the better value and which one you see as part of the future Jazz team. If Kanter develops into something then both will be gone but for now you need to decide on one or the other. Personally, I feel that Jefferson is move valuable but I'm not sure if he would fetch any higher price than Millsap would.

I could see a Millsap/Harris for Collison + other goodies going down.
 
I know there is a lot of talk about Granger, but there is no way they give him up unless it's for multiple picks and quality players. I think they also really like Paul George, and think he could be an All-Star someday. To me though, I'm mostly interested in Collison. He's young and could be our PG of the future. He'll probably never be a star, but he could be a top 10 PG in the league. No shame in that.
 
Do the jazz even like Collison or George? They passed up on both of them in the draft

I think this deal almost has to involve Hibbert based on the jazz love affair with him going into the draft

Can't see them dealing Granger away
 
People who think the Pacers would trade Sap for Granger are crazy. Not as crazy as those who think Granger is useless, of course.
 
The only player they have that I want is Hibbert. Don't need Collison, we have Harris, and both Burks and Hayward cover up his weaknesses as a pg. I don't like what Granger would do to this offense, and do we really need George? I say no.
 
Collison for Harris is essentially trading for the same player except of course Harris is a few years older and makes about 7mil more per season. I'm sure Utah would have to throw in a pick and take Posey's expiring off their hands.
