We are not trading him....

But seriously, I'm worried about how long this story has taken to develop. It doesn't look good for us, but if Foster can continue filling in as well as he did, we may still have a shot.

Where in my post does it say that I'm asking if he's getting traded?

I'm just curious because there was no news on this message board about his injury. Is there another more active Pacer's message board than RealGM's?

It was a joke. And there are more active ones, but ours is the best ;)

I just checked Pacers.com and it said that he's day-to-day. Don't know which report is more dependable, but they have him in the starting five.

Last I heard, he was getting an MRI. Haven't heard of any results though...

He was set to undergo an MRI, and to be honest, I don't think it sound promising.

With the Dunleavy knee issue, it's not worth playing him and risking he injuries it further.

Pacers forward Troy Murphy had an MRI on his sprained left knee on Thursday, which revealed no major damage.

Murphy sprained a ligament in the knee during Wednesday's shootaround and didn't play against Miami that night, or against Chicago on Saturday afternoon.

Indiana coach Jim O'Brien called the sprain "very painful."

Anywho, other message boards suck. This one has the nicest people and don't have stupid convos, just awesome ones. Plus it has me, which is awesome! :roll:

Dunleavy's knee isn't the issue, but rather the fact that we're not going anywhere with this current incarnation. Not worth him ruining next season or possibly his career over a half-month of semi-worthless games.

I think the Pacers need a PG future definately within this draft, as well as a defensive presence at PF that could eventually develop into a quality successor, but PF is neither here nor there at least to me.

He might not even play the rest of the season.

I actually heard today that he's adamant about returning, and it was reflected in Wells column in the Star. With that said, he's a risky play.
