Granger to Philly for Turner

[cman88]

how does this benefit Indiana though? I wouldve thought Granger was a good 6th man for that team

unless I just havent been watching enough pacers this year!

If Granger gets bought out: Miami? Yikes.

Indiana are going to win the Championship. Loaded.

I'd have to call them co-favorites (I can't count out a defending champion with the same key pieces still there).

Bird has done a masterful job with this team, even though it took awhile.

Hmm philly gets better maybe?? good for us

Actually i dont know why Philly made this trade. Isn't granger damaged goods?

Philly was already a virtual lock for a bottom 3 position in the standings.

I'm guessing they didn't want to pay Turner next season? There must be some picks going Philly's way in this.

If Grainger is healthy.....he makes them better......which should increase their wins ......

its also a blueprint that you can build a contender without botomming out

Exactly.

He's been a negative for them this season - shooting 36% from the field, 33% from 3. He's never been much of a defender. Hard to see how Philly gets better here. They lost 2 starters today for a bunch of scraps.

Their tank rolls on.

Granger was good for 8 pts in 20+ minutes this season while shooting 35% from the floor. You tell me whether he's healthy.

Granger at this point in his career, isn't reliable. I think he is too injury prone. I think Turner is a safe and reliable player off the bench for them behind Paul George.

[D.o.s.]

Wow that sucks for Granger.

Kind of sucks for Turner, too.

Yeah, I would be shocked otherwise.

Indiana has to cut someone to trade Granger for two players, right?
