Pacers are close to completing a deal with the Bulls:

Jalen Rose
for
Ron Artest + Brad Miller

Iam a Artest hater but I want Brad Miller. Plus we dont want the Pacers to put themselves in championship form for next year. Iam gonna repeat the trade I posted on Friday:

Latrell Sprewell + Marcus Camby + 2nd rounder
for
Eddie Robinson(the OTHER Matrix) + Brad Miller + Charles Oakley.

To move forward, sometimes u have to take one step backwards. Robinson and Millers numbers arent as dynamic as Sprees or Cambys but they can really improve this team. Some of these fans want immediate results. This trade will give semi-immediate results. This trade will start paying off dividends next year. We get a heck of alot younger. they get the scorer in Spree. We get 2 future all-stars. Any real basketball fan will see the benefit of this trade

Won't happen because the Indy trade is a done deal...

Finally, the bulls will get a bonafide scorer. Question is - where are they gonna play rose? At the PG? With Mercer at the 2 and E-Rob at the 3? What about when crawford returns? I'd like to see Mercer dealt, have rose at the 3, Robinson at the 2, crawford at the 1, with curry at center, chandler/fizer at the 4. and they have a lotto pick coming their way, i'd like to see them toss a nice C in the mix - like Chris Marcus...

Am I the only one who thinks Indy is definitely coming out thw winner in this trade? Unless Indiana gives them some draft picks this is way to one sided.

not only does Indy come our the winner in this trade, but Donnie Walsh - he is the GM, right? - should be nominated for GM of the past 4 years. He trades the Davis boys at the top of their respective games for young athletic big men and has now solidified his team for many years to come. This is unlike the Knick counterparts - where our GM tries to trade his potential all-stars during their worst years, when their value is nil. Ah well, on to the lottery.

Indy is gonna be tough for many years to come - Miller and Oneal at the big spots, defensive-minded Artest at the 3, Mercer to come off the bench and then take over when Reggie rides into sun, and they still have Bender, Harrington, Foster, Croshere. Damn that's good.

Alway trade when you're players values are highest and prospects values are lowest. Bender could end up being another T-mac or something... we haven't seen enough of this kid play, but I remember he dropped 25 on our domes once...
