Raptors Rumors: Rudy Gay Trade For Pacers Danny Granger Possible As Toronto GM Masai Ujiri Considers Quentin Richardson Deal After Austin Daye Signs

http://www.sportsworldreport.com/articles/19059/20130802/raptors-rumors-rudy-gay-trade-pacers-danny-granger-possible-toronto.htm

The deal idea was first mentioned by ESPN's Bill SImmons. I dont think theres any validity to it but who knows. If im gm I dont even consider it. But it does create interesting possibilities considering that Gay can play the 2 and 3 versus Granger whos a 3/4. Thoughts?

Destroys Pacers salary cap/tax position next year. Costs them Paul George.
I have no idea what you're talking about, and clearly, neither do you.

NO NO NO NO OH GOD NO

(Same reaction to the Brandon Jennings trade)

Gay is an overpaid inefficient guy that just kills offenses unless he's iso-ing. NO THANKS.

This. A deal like this means that Indy cannot make any other moves to keep George or Lance here. There's nothing about it to consider for Indy. Heck, if Danny is healthy, he's always been better than Gay.

After reading it, it's a joke of a report/website.

Good to see this is fake. I don't think Bird would ever pull the trigger on this, but still.
