Luis Scola heading to Indiana

[Arizona_Sting]

The Suns are trading the Argentine vet to the Pacers. No info on who we will receive just yet...

 

[Arizona_Sting]

I really hope we can land a first rounder in next year's draft for him.

 

[ChrisperJ10]

Damn Indy just got alot better. Hope we got something in return.... Like Paul George

This team will be soooo bad next year! I love it! #tank4wiggins!

 

[Arizona_Sting]

Gerald Green and a first rounder please please please...

Green actually might be the best dunker in the world though, insane hops. WOOOO #LOBCITY

Shannon Brown, Gerald Green, and Eric Bledsoe have all been in the slam dunk contest.

 

[Arizona_Sting]

We'll suck next year... but we sure as hell will be fun to watch.

 

[Desert Glory]

If they turn this into a slam dunk league, we will be in the playoffs for sure!

I was fine with just getting some draft considerations for Scola, but adding Gerald Green would be great.

 

[Arizona_Sting]

Wow. Miles Plumlee is also apart of the deal, first round pick from last year and he did well in the summer league this year. A first round pick in next years loaded draft as well... it's lottery protected but we don't have to worry about that since Indy will be in the 24-28 range probably.
Can't believe we got Plumlee, Green and a 2014 1st rounder. McD does it again.

Seems like Indiana gave up a lot for Scola. I like it. How many 1st draft picks do we have for next year?

3 1st rounders next year. Our own, one from Minnesota (top 13 protected) and Indy's.

I think Minnesota will make it as a 7th or 8th seed this year if they stay healthy so hopefully we'll get their pick in the 14-16 range.

Wow! This trade was a steal! Good job, Big Mac!

Only means the heat would rely on another string of injuries in east to make to the finals.
Nets added KG and Pierce to D. Williams, Brook Lopez, Joe Johnson
Pacers added Scola and Granger coming back to Hibbert, West, George, Hill
Bulls added to bench gets Rose to Noah, Boozer, Deng, Hinrach and Jimmy Butler.

All 3 teams are better than the Pacers that just lost in gm 7.
Pretty much makes getting the #1 seed very important.

The East has improved... but the Heat are still the favorites, imo. I wouldn't be shocked if the Pacers or Bulls got past them, however.

Idk about the Nets just yet... they will be good but health could be an issue for them. We'll see.

 

[FORKWDEVIL]

Bye.

 

[Arizona_Sting]

Bye.

Main motive of this trade was to get 2014 draft pick from the Pacers but I am actually excited to see what Plumlee and Greene will do. I am sad to see the "flop" leave PHX.

 

[mikesphxsuns]

i see a Gortat move in the near or relatively near future , hate to see him go but i def see it coming

 

[Arizona_Sting]

3 first rounders in the loaded 2014 draft... muahaha.
