I do believe JO will end up with LA, He is good friends with Kobe and its just a perfect fit.
You're a fuckin prophet!
Peter Vescey reported this last night on NBA Tv. Only problem is, nothing he says ever comes true.
Supposedly, these are the deals they're discussing. I prefer number 1...

Yeah the last few months I have really had a feeling this would happen.
-
Don't like either of the trades to tell you then truth. It it would be cool to have JO.
-
Doesn't JO have an optiion on his contract this year? He could just ditch the Pacers if he wants.
-
i dont know how great Jim O Brien is, i think i like carlisle better. JO to the Lakers would be a good move, but what do the Lakers have to give up?

what do the Lakers have to give up?
Two deals with Lakers are being discussed
1. JO and Murphy for Lamar Odom , Kwame Brown , Sasha Vujacic OR Brian Cook and pick #19
Key here is dumping Murphy's long term salary and Brown's expires after next season.
Savings would amount to 14.5 mil coming off pay roll after next season. Even more the next 2 years. In 2009 summer Pacers payroll would be at 22 million but Granger and Diogu plus Odom and Foster( if they still want LO and Foster)would have to be resigned.
2. JO and Greene to Lakers for Bynum , Brown and prob 3 cheap fillers Brian Cook , Vujacic and Mo Evans + pick 19
Bynum would give the Pacers a possible good center in future-
According to a source these are what Vescey was talking about when he said Pacers had received an offer from Lakers for JO they liked. Source in LA says this is what he has been told.

JO and Kobe would work imo
-
I don't like either trades. Jim O'Brien is a good coach, but ya'll will be lucky to make the playoffs IMO. Looks like Indiana is entering major rebuilding mode...PeACe
-
Jim O'Brien turned the Celtics into playoff contenders in 2002 after being a horrible team after like 1995 and he did a good job with the Sixers too. I can see him getting the Pacers on track the way the roster looks now but that could change.
-
^^Yea. He's the perfect coach for rebuilding. He also got the Sixers into the playoffs after their absence.
-
Don't get rid of Odom!!!
-
if the lake show can get JO witout giving up Odom it will be a good move. I dont see JO making a huge impact witout odom being on squad
