Did pacers make a mistake by trading bayless?

Question

did the pacers trade bayless after he was drafted or was it predetermined? i was so happy when the pacers drafted him but then they traded him away. i think this is something that they are going to regret.

Answer 1

summer league can't really be compared to the pro's or even preseason... but d**n... bayless i avg. 27.7 in the summer league. if the pacers can't get rid of tinsley then yeah i think its a bad move for indy... jack is a good point guard tho, and rush may be a solid pro in years to come.

Answer 2

Yes. Bayless was projected to be in the top 5 in most mock drafts and he drops to Indiana where they draft the best player available and the position that they greatly need.

It's okay though since they got TJ Ford. If they kept Bayless we wont see him inawhile.

Answer 3

Did they make a mistake?!....

They made a HUGE mistake!.... If they had kept Bayless he maybe their franchise player!....

But the problem is that if Bayless was still with the Pacers he would have limited playing time!.... They just acquired TJ Ford on the O'Neal trade and they have Jamaal Tinsley as backup PG!.....

Answer 4

i think there gonna regret it i also think the pacers are gonna win the least games of the nba this season

Answer 5

We should see both of Rush and Bayless on the pitch. I think there isn't any reason to regret for Pacers. Rush could still be a better player and I think he will be.

Answer 6

yeah

Answer 7

I thinnk they don't regret it, because Bayless position is guarg and Pacers are havng many guards there are Ford, Tinsley, Diener. They need a back-up for Granger and that is Rush the brother of Kareem Rush. The addition of Jack make a depth for the point guard position and a bonus player of Josh McRoberts. There is a rumor that Tinsley is going to be traded. The Pacers get a big man for Bayless and that's the position they need because I think Shawne Williams career with the Pacer is getting thinner

Answer 8

Yeah they'll probably regret it. But it wont matter if they had kept him or not because there only gonna go down hill from here unless they get a superstar like Kobe or Lebron. Which will never happen. They have no future because there a not very smart team (Larry).
