Kahn better get more than that!!

Interesting... I wonder why Rubio would be involved? Who else would we be interested in besides Granger, Hibbert or Collison maybe?

I'm sure it's just spit balling.
I'd be more interested in the #2 for Paul George.

Number 2, Beasley, and Rubio for Granger? LOL, what are we going to do about a PG? I guess the team would have a hell of a lot of faith in Flynn then.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say there ain't no way Rubio is involved in that trade.

Granger doesn't do anything for me, he's on his way downhill.

If you guys are going to give up the #2 and Rubio, please send that offer to the Milwaukee Bucks front office and ask them to send you Andrew Bogut.
He'd help you win a heck of a lot more next year than Granger.

I wouldn't do it but I could see a Granger for #2 and Beasley offer being made by Indiana. I don't think Granger is that much better than Beasley now and when you take his age into account, the difference in value certainly isn't the #2 pick. Pacers's fans would be crazy if George was moved.

I'd be disappointed in #2 for Granger, absolutely furious in #2 for George

Sam Amico is reporting that the Indiana Pacers and Minnesota Timberwolves are discussing a potential trade for the second overall selection in the NBA Draft.
Amico mentions Danny Granger, Ricky Rubio and Michael Beasley as some of the players being discussed between the two teams, so clearly these two teams are looking to make a major deal. If David Kahn deals the second overall pick and gives up Rubio and Beasley in the same trade, he better receive a haul of talent in return or he's going to face some serious backlash from the fans.

I could see Flynn, but not Rubio. Rubio is made for this system, not Indiana's.

Beasley is going to be better than Granger...adding #2 and Rubio just screams bull(stuff)...so why the (fudge) are we even taking this (freaking) deal seriously.

It just says those names "were discussed". It doesn't mean they would all be included in a deal.

I wouldn't trade any of those 3 pieces alone for Granger.

Well guys it is Kahn a former Pacer employee were talking about.
I wouldn't mind Beasly but Granger is by far a better player with less issues which kind of makes me wonder why the Pacers would do it at all unless it involved more.
My guess you guys get the the Pacers pick and someone like Rush or Collison if Rubio is involved.
