Augustin on his way to Indiana?


Recommended Posts

The Pacers are pursuing point guard D.J. Augustin in a trade with the Bobcats, according to Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski.

This is probably the reason they dealt Darren Collison to the Mavericks earlier, but if the Augustin deal falls through, George Hill would be the starting PG in Indy. Stay tuned.

I wonder who/what we would be getting in return.

Not a bad trade, Kemba needs to start anyway and instead of letting Augustin walk in free agency; we actually get something in return for him.

On top of that, Hansbrough could really benefit from the type of offense that Dunlap wants to run, fast-paced, up-tempo.

I hate you UNC fans.

According to the same source who I quoted in the Howard trade thread who said we'd go after Lopez and the Pacers wanted DJ last night, he says tonight we offered DJ 9.5 mil per for 2 yrs, if I read it right (it may have been 9.5 for 2 yrs, but either way, we upped it). He said DJ won't accept and likes the Pacers situation. He said his agent doesn't want him to accept it b/c better offers will be out there.

    • I just tried a few mock draft simulators and this is the only way lol. Nothing else makes sense. 
    • No, biggest weakness is pass rush, but I don't think there is a blue chip can't miss DE prospect to take at #1 this year, same as with QB.  But beyond that, moving forward, yea WR is a pretty damn big weakness. We have 1 game this season over 224 yards passing and just traded away our best WR (who wasn't going to re-sign here anyways).  That WR no longer on the team was also the only player we've had this year who had over 78 yards receiving in a game.  So again, yea, WR is one of our biggest weaknesses even right now, let alone moving into the future. As I just said in my other post, I love Legette, but he's not going to be a Top 5-10 WR type of guy, Top 15-20 I can see, I think he can be a good #1 WR or an elite #2. After that, what do we have for the future?  Thielen isn't part of it, sure as hell isn't going to be Mingo, and as much as we all like Coker, in no world is Coker as our #2 to Legette as the #1 going be considered as "having weapons" at WR, even with Brooks and Sanders. But put someone like T-Mac into that group, who I genuinely think is going to be a Top 5 WR in this league for a long time, and it changes things.  A Top 5 WR with Legette/Coker as the 2/3, along with Brooks and Sanders, has the potential to be one of the best set of offensive weapons in the league if they reach their potential.  
    • At this range currently he’s probably a day 3 pick, but I think he will rise to day 2.
