    To the 76ers for Evan turner. Solid move for the pacers

    That's a great trade for the pacers. Turner is up his way up while granger looks to be on his way down in their careers.

    Turner on his way up? his FG % is on the way down lol the Pacers won't need him to try and score though, as long as he plays good defense and distributes he'll have a good role in Indy

    What are talking about ? Pacers desperately need somebody who can score off the bench. Granger has been in a major funk. Not sure if Turner will be a good fit, but he cannot much worse than Granger and maybe just maybe give them a chance to go all the way this year. As for Turner's FG, well he played in Philly where the main offensive tactic is to go one on five with 15 secs left on the shot clock.

    doesn't matter where Turner plays, I've watched him way too many times to know he's not gonna change. he's streaky, he'll play great certain games and disappear the next

    He is streaky but much more athletic and a better defender then granger. Plus he's kinda a point forward so he can handle the ball for them when he's in

    Turner has never played on a real team. West/George/Hill should be able to make him start playing smart basketball. Anyway, we will see. I really see no upside for Philly: what a dumb move by a bad organization.

    clear tank move by philly to make them even worse.

    lavoy allen is good insurance in the front court if someone gets hurt as well, it was a good move by indiana overall, sixers may as well let 5 fans suit up for the rest of the year

    The trade also saved Indiana 7mill off the payroll
