Lakers-Pacers Trade

(1/5) > >>

Stone Cold is Bout It, Bout It:
Eric Pincus of www.HoopsWorld.com reports... Jonathan Bender is indeed on his way to Los Angeles along with the 17th pick in the draft. In return, the Lakers will send Devean George, Slava Medvedenko and a second-round pick



This is a great trade for the Lakers,I'm guessin the pacers want to get rid of Jonathan Bender contract & want players who have 1 year left in ther contracts wich d.goerge & slava are..

i like the 17 pick,that's going to give us 2 first rounders in the first 20 picks  ;D 8)

authentic:
ya but is bender really a consistent basketball player, i dont think he's gonna make that big of an impact, i think the highlight is that 17th pick, but then again i dont know if the beef of the draft is  gonna be very good. THat 17th pick willl get them a good player tho

acbaylove:
I dont remember who said it first, maybe Addicted to Beef. We already talked about this scenario, yeah. Anyway Bender is a player with a good potential, who can play 3 positions pretty well, even if he's not a superstar and he'll probably never be. Bender (a good fit for the triangle) + the 17th draft pick in exchange of George (good underrated player, if you ask me) + Slava (just too inconsistent in defence to play for the Lakers more than 6-8 minutes a game) is a great trade for both the teams so, as a Laker fan, i'm happy about it. Now we can trade our #10 & #17 picks, if necessary, to get an higher draft pick or a pretty good player, hopefully a PG.

R-Tistic:
That sounds like a good deal to me. It's a decent amount of players I would like to see with the Lakers that come out this year. I just hope we get Felton and not fatazz Sean May

I dont know, man. Raymond is not a good fit for the triangle. Plus he's 6-0 or something. Phil prefeers tall PG's, like Ron Harper (shit i miss him!). But he got skills, that's for sure.
