Re: Al to Indiana very close to complete..
I guess it's good to know that JSmith/Marvin for AI rumor has subside a bit. The bad thing about this is that this will make Pacers stronger to contend for the playoffs spot (that hopefully Atlanta will be in it  ) .

Re: Al to Indiana very close to complete..
I'm hoping we get Jeff foster and Anthony Johnson, these two veteren could make the chance of the hawks reaching the post season better. It's good we didn't have to give up Childress in the process.

Re: Al to Indiana very close to complete..
Apparently all your getting back is a trade exception/exemption (I don't know what its called)

Re: Al to Indiana very close to complete..
The Pacers only have a 7.5 Million TE. If that is all the Hawks get back, then Al didn't get a very big contract

I highly doubt it...IMO it's Foster, and AJ which would make the most sense...Thanx for giving him back to us BTW....

Re: Al to Indiana very close to complete..
1 rumor seems to be Atlanta is just getting an unprotected 1st, and the TE.  |

better than letting him go for nothing, we still need a big man. Maybe we can use the trade exception to get David Anderson over here.
A rumor I've heard is Jamal Tinsley, and a first rounder, I've also heard Stephen Jackson name, but the one i'm hearing the most is the one ATLien said. I wouldn't be mad if we get an unprotected first rounder, with how deep next years draft is. We can get a player in the 15-20 range that would have been a top 10 pick in this years draft.

Re: Al to Indiana very close to complete..
Who's David Anderson?
Foster would be good, but the TE/1st seems to be the most common trade (plus the fact that exceptions can't be packaged with other players in trades..)
(btw, anyone else think the whole issue about Indiana getting that TE is suspicious? Why would New Orleans give that up, when Peja was unrestricted?)

Re: Al to Indiana very close to complete..
So Atlanta will be on the Jermaine O'Neal injury watch.
If he gets hurt again, you could get a lottery pick.

Re: Al to Indiana very close to complete..
Getting this pick means that they will send this pick to Phoenix next season. I think it's a great trade for Atlanta. If they are at the top of the lottery they will keep their pick. I will give Billy Knight credit for this.

Latest News Jul. 22, 2006 - 11:09 am et
Slamonline.com is reporting that Al Harrington is still being linked to the Pacers, with the Warriors falling out of the race for the free agent.
They're also reporting that the Pacers will only have to send draft picks and cash in a sign-and-trade deal. If this is true, and they don't have to give up any players or their trade exception, it could be quite a coup for the Pacers.
