According to three NBA executives, the Pacers are already in talks to move Mike Dunleavy to the Los Angeles Clippers for swingman Corey Maggette.

Earlier reports have indicated a strong interest from head coach Mike Dunleavy, Sr. in his son, but that other members of the Los Angeles front office had reservations.

This kind of sucks for us. Who knows if Pop was even pursuing Maggette?

NOOOO!!!!!

Plz no! this will be our last chance of getting Maggette.I really hope Pop makes some magic and he brings him to SA.

Or maybe he is focusing on Perterson?

I don't think we have anything Toronto wants. Those were the last reports on Mo Pete.

This might be the roster we take to the playoffs.

If I were Pop, I would seriously consider bringing White back from D-League. Also, what is up with Butler? I heard he showed up out of shape, but it's late January now. Is he scarfing crispy cremes and eating buckets of chicken while he waits on the bench?

If we are taking this roster to the playoffs we can expect another long summer.I don't know if we even pass the first round.Unless Duncan returns to his really old MVP play.

the Spurs are struggling and plus we aint gonna get Maggette not Mo Pete...WTF...we lost 5 games out of the last 10...WTF

I cannot imagine the GM for teh Clippers would sign off on letting Dunleavy bring his son to teh team - that is a BAD idea plain and simple. I am hopeful that this will not happen.

maybe he'll be able to get his son to play better, but the Clippers would be getting ripped off here.

If the Pacers can pull this one off they will improve the that deal they made with GS dramatically. It would give them a lot of versatile players and some quality backups.

Pacers not looking for another deal
Walsh says he doesn't plan to swap Dunleavy, who came from Warriors in trade

MIAMI -- The news of the Indiana Pacers' trade with Golden State had barely reached all corners of the NBA on Wednesday when a rumor began spreading: The Pacers were planning to send Mike Dunleavy Jr. to the Los Angeles Clippers for Corey Maggette.

"Absolutely untrue," Pacers CEO Donnie Walsh said Thursday.Walsh had just gotten off the phone with Dunleavy's father, Mike Sr., who coaches the Clippers. Their conversation wasn't about a trade; it was about how to get the most out of a player who was often regarded as a disappointment in his five seasons with Golden State.
"I talked to Indiana today for 45 minutes and there was no talk of any kind of deal," the elder Dunleavy told Los Angeles-area reporters. "He's there because they want him there."Walsh believes the younger Dunleavy can thrive in a different system.
"He's a good all-around basketball player. We need that," Walsh said. "He has not played with a low-post player. I think a lot of what he does will come out of the fact he can feed the post now. He can pass the ball, he can shoot the ball, he can run on the break and he's a great team defender. All the things you look for in a well-rounded player, he can do."
Dunleavy's dilemma in Golden State seemed to be summarized by his last game with the Warriors, a victory over the Clippers on Monday that Walsh watched on television. He scored 18 points and grabbed 13 rebounds off the bench but still heard boos from the home fans.
"He was the third pick in the draft and he didn't turn out to be Larry Bird in the first couple of years," Walsh said. "There's a lot of players you can say that about."
Walsh said he and Bird, the Pacers president, have no plans for another trade but are open to ideas as the Feb. 22 deadline approaches.
"I'd always look to see if you can add shooters," he said. "I want to see how our guard corps checks out now. I'm talking about Jamaal (Tinsley), Orien Greene, Darrell Armstrong and (Keith McLeod, who also was acquired in the trade)."

Good news for the Spurs. We should be the Maggette front-runner right now.

Trade Udrih and Barry to them ASAP. Throw in Scola if necessary. Start Maggette and bring Bowen in off the bench.

My thoughts exactly!

Charlotte is in the mix of getting Maggette, too.

I just dont understand why, why dont the Spurs pull a trigger on this one.

Maybe the Clippers don't want what we have to offer - they do have to agree to terms and to be honest getting Beno and Barry in return is a lopsided deal that is not in their favor.

yea but didnt the Clipps say that they like Barry n' Udrih

Thats what I have been thinking. I believe Baylor said recently that he hasn't seen any offers that excited them yet. It looks like they are going to wait until the deadline to get the best possible offer.
