Re: It's official: Al is back in Indy http://www.nba.com/pacers/news/harrington_trade_060822.htmlGood thing for the Pacers.
Re: It's official: Al is back in Indy Good aqquistion for Indy, but Granger is going to be stuck on the bench which I really dont want to see. The kid deserves playing time.
Re: It's official: Al is back in Indy Maybe just maybe, they could move O'Neal to C and stick Harrington at PF and let Granger start.
Re: It's official: Al is back in Indy good 4 them. Edwards and Harrington for next year's 1st. GL indy, my former 2nd fav team. Though now that i think about it, you probably are still my 2nd fav. Good pickup

Dont they already have Lamar Odom at the SF/PF spot?

Re: It's official: Al is back in Indy Finally the Pacers do something to improve themselves. Good trade. I can see them getting a playoff spot now in the East.
Re: It's official: Al is back in Indy That's it? Just a 1st rounder for Harrington/Edwards? What about that $7-8M trade exception? Was that involved?I'm glad it's finally done though, and we all know Al is too. If Indiana can stay healthy next year they can be a top 5 team in the East. JO, Harrington, Jack, Tinsley, Foster with a nice young core of Granger, Daniels, Williams, White, Harrison, and Saras - I like. Plus I like guys like Greene and Armstrong comming in for some energy minutes. Not to mention a top 3 coach in the NBA, Carlisle is very underrated. But I really hope Indiana can stay healthy this year, they have a nice team. They could make some noise in the playoffs, I'm excited to see how this team does this year. They are going to be one of the top teams in the East.
Re: It's official: Al is back in Indy Yes, the TE was obviously involved. That's a given. It wouldn't work at all otherwise. What was harrington signed to? the 5 year 57 mil thing? don't see why edwards was in this...

And about Edwards, I don't see why he was in this either, but oh well, he's not a guy that's going to play much anyway (on either team). But either way, Atlanta should have tried to get around giving up a center in this deal, no matter what his talent level is. They need all the help they can get, even if Edwards only plays 5-8 mpg.

Re: It's official: Al is back in Indy yeah, saras is lower 30s, lol. If Indy doesn't get a top 5 seed, they should fire carlisle, that's a pretty talented group.
Re: It's official: Al is back in Indy But Top 5 is pretty hard when your going against Detroit, Cleveland, New Jersey, Chicago, Miami, Washington, and Milwaukee, plus all of the improving young teams in the Atlantic.
