If the right trade came up would you guys be wiling to trade Bender or is he basically untouchable. Personally, I think we should hold onto him, but if the right deal came along it would be tempting. Say, Artest, Bender, Croshere to Dallas for NVE and La Frentz. I don't know if the deal would work but If it did it would help our team tremendously. It would provide Dallas with some better defense and by throwing in Bender as bait they would probably take it.

I don't trade Bender for anything. He can't develop by getting no PT behind Reggie and Mercer. He is still young, so give him some time. Jamaal Tinsley will be fine at PG, he's just getting used to the NBA, and everyone struggles a bit when they go to the playoffs for the first time.
