Re: Blazers trade for DJ
Besides Bayless, who are we getting from the Pacers? Jack made $1.2 mil thisyear and $2 mil next. We have to take a salary back unless Indy has a TPE.

Re: Blazers trade for DJ
It's Bayless, man. Read the message. He's better than both DJ or Westbrook!

Re: Blazers trade for DJ, er, ah, Jerryd
From Chad Ford over at ESPN:
"Kansas junior Brandon Rush was the 13th pick by the Portland Trail Blazers, but was then part of a trade that sent him to Indiana. A Blazers source told ESPN.com's Chad Ford that the Blazers have verbally agreed to a deal that will send the rights to Rush and Jarrett Jack to the Pacers for the rights to Bayless and Ike Diogu."

Chad Ford: Rush & Jack for Bayless and Diogu (merged)
"The Blazers will send the rights to Rush and Jarrett Jack to the Pacers for the rights to Bayless and Ike Diogu."
Wow. We keep #27. Pritchard is God.

Is he really? Is this going to leave room for Koponen/Sergio rotation? alongside him and Blake?

That would be brilliant... even though Ike has been a huge disappointment, he's pretty darn good as filler and might prove to be an asset for us.

Re: Blazers trade for DJ, er, ah, Jerryd
Getting Diogu too is sweet. Last year, at age 24, he put up over 17 PER. Bayless was great enough, but adding another useful young player in the bargain.
Pritchard is almost too good at this stuff.

I am answering my own question;
We are getting Diogu, who mad $2.8 mil, which still doe not match up with Jacks contract, but Indy is getting a TPE from Toronto.

Watch him snatch up a sliding DeAndre Jordan at #27.

IMO Bayless is a MUCH more exciting and promising prospect than Augustin/Koponen/Sergio or Blake/Jack.
We haven't really talked that much about him on the board, I think, because it was assumed he was going to be selected in the top 5 or 6... he is a bigger PG, almost a combo guard, but paired with Roy and/or Rudy in the same backcourt, it could be AWESOME!

As ever, we're on the same page.
I almost am holding back my full excitement because it seems to good to be true (especially since I was so downcast that we took Rush for those 105 seconds...)
