[bagelred]

EDIT: Danny Granger is NOT in the deal

Deal is done:

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 1h
Pacers will trade Miles Plumlee, Gerald Green and 2014 protected 1st round pick to Suns for Luis Scola, sources tell Y! Sports.

The Indiana Pacers are nearing completion of a deal to acquire Phoenix Suns forward Luis Scola, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

While the deal was still being finalized overnight, the Pacers will minimally send the Suns a future first-round draft pick, as well as possible additional draft and cash considerations to go along with guard Gerald Green, sources told Yahoo! Sports.

Yet ANOTHER guy I thought Knicks could get with Camby contract and #1 pick. Pacers making the right moves....

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Always been a big Scola fan. But for Granger? Does he absolutely not want to come off the bench or something?

Good trade for the Suns. Scola has no value for a a team in their position and Granger could be a solid building piece if he's healthy.

[Im so nba'd out]

wow larry bird really has faith in born ready aka lance stevenson

[DuMa]

yes this will get them over the hump over miami

[KobeBaRyant]

Who got traded aside from granger and scola in this trade?

[IncarceratedBob]

Giving up an great player in Granger who was easily gonna average 20-24 points this year for Scola?

I get Granger was injured but it's not like Paul George is all that much better.

In before idiots come with this degenerative bullshit for Granger, dude has said he hasn't felt this good in a while, the time off helped him work on his game, Pacers staff said Granger is ready to be set loose.

Awful trade for Indy.

[flipogb]

redundant with David West, dumb trade

what makes you think granger will average 20-24?

he averaged 18 last time he played a full season.

[JBrizzy]

I think Granger would be playing behind George. He has good trade value. Scola is useful.

[TylerOO]

Maybe the Phoenix staff can resurrect the bums career.

Yeah, because its not like they desperately need quality guys for their bench.

[IncarceratedBob]

He would have averaged 20+ this season with the Pacers because he's never had a team that wasn't shite. This team could help take the pressure off him, he wouldn't be the 1st option.

Oh well I guess Larry Bird isn't perfect

[daily]

Is there a reputable source for this?

[Carbine]

If Granger was thought to have a problem (not buying in completely) with his new role of coming off the bench and not being a go-to player on offense, he had to be dealt.

Scola is a very nice upgrade from Hansbrough.

[Chuckbrook]

I think Granger would be playing behind George. He has good trade value. Scola is useless.
