Wow! I can't believe it! The Pacers finally traded! I think this will be a good deal for us (Pacers Fans). Stephen Jackson was too big of a distraction and we didn't need it. I mean, we are finally recovering from Ron Artest, we didn't need more problems! I'm sad to see Sarunas go, but I think it's for the best

You'll like Diogu a lot, I think. He's a bit undersized but he plays hard and while he didn't fit in the run-and-gun offense we had at Golden State, I think he'll do much better in the East. Dunleavy...well...had he not been the #3 pick in 2002, it might not have been so bad, but he just seems to play like he doesn't give a shit out there. Murphy's a nice player, just overpaid (although supposedly he pretended to be injured last year to maintain his double-double average and secure a bonus, so said the paper). McLeod is okay filler.

Overall, I think both teams got good parts out of the deal, although the Warriors getting out a year earlier from the salary constraints (Harrington/Jackson both have their contracts end a year before Dunleavy/Murphy) helps that franchise a bit more.
