Pacers are on Dragic's list

Edit: beat me to the punch.

Pacers pretty random team to want to be traded to...

Is that Berger blurb a little confusing to anyone else? Is he saying that other teams are enticing the Bucks with trades that the Bucks would have to strongly consider?

If Miami could bring back Tucker in a Deng trade, pinch the 7th or 8th seed and have a lineup of:

Whiteside / Bosh / Tucker / Wade / Dragic

That would be a team you would want to avoid in the first round. Yikes. I imagine Phx wouldn't want to part with Tucker too though.

teams that don't have a point guard and have told his agent they will pay $20 per yr.

Yes, that's how I read it. I would be very interested to hear what's been offered if it's true

Btw my guess for this Dragic situation is that Phoenix says it tries to trade Dragic "in good faith" but that the teams have so few assets that they don't want to give Dragic up for that. Then they trade IT in the summer and offer Dragic the Bird rights max and he accepts.

Someone text Hammond and see what's been offered.

- Teams are testing Milwaukee's resolve to enter restricted free agency with Brandon Knight, league source say. The Bucks have thus far been steadfast in their desire to keep Knight, whose team-high 17.8 points and 5.4 assists per game have been key to positioning them solidly in the sixth playoff spot in the East.

Who is testing and what is offered??? Given Knights coming RFA status, I would think the offers are a bit on the light side....

As a bball fan, I'd love to see Dragic on Indy with PG13.

As a fan of a team who's in the same division as IND, I would not wanna see that.

Ready to be livid over what we passed up on trading Knight over instead of paying him 12+M a year to take touches from Giannis and Jabari :banghead:

To keep him until summer where they let him go right? :-?

Ugh, yep.

Enes Kantor?? I would be all over that depending on what we have to give up. Too bad we can't give up Larry. Anyone want a Guitierrez Kenyon Martin package?

Kidd's first bad move as coach/GM will be extending Knight at the dollars he will get. I thought with the benefit of watching him up close pose as a PG all season, Kidd would be onto the charade and move on. Apparently he cannot evaluate his own position.

I've come around to appreciate Knight more, but they cannot overpay him either. I would love to know what has been offered - if it's real offers, or just chumming the waters.....

Literally, who is asking? Houston - as "plan B" in the Dragic sweepstakes? Miami as a relief pitcher for Wade? who else ???

Another example of 'being a great player doesn't mean you can evaluate talent'. Right, MJ?
