 Danny Granger Expects Pacers to Deal for a Big Man First, Larry Bird said it. Now, Danny Granger is being even more specific about what type of move the Indiana Pacers soon could make. Asked by FanHouse on Friday in Springfield, Mass., where Bird was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame along with members of the 1992 Olympic Dream Team, the Pacers president said the team needs to make another trade before the start of the regular season. Asked by FanHouse about Bird's comments, Granger said management has told him to expect a move, and he figures they will look to acquire a big man. Pacers got their point guardHow quickly things have changed. Some of you went from trying to push Larry Bird out the door to now praising him after he was able to get their point guard of the future in Darren Collison. Bird and general manager David Morway made a lot of fans happy when they acquired Collison and James Posey and unloaded Troy Murphy. Getting Collison was a great pick up for the Pacers. They were the winners in the four-team deal. Collison should be the starter when the Pacers open training camp Sept. 28. O'Brien must go -- for the good of the bad PacersBob Kravitz Maybe Jim O'Brien is trying to get himself fired. Maybe he's gone in the tank, just as his team has done for the past few months, and is willing to take the cash for next season and move on back to Florida. I've written it before, with a mild bit of hesitation. Pacers asking for too much for MurphyMike WellsThe Pacers have work to do if they expect to be able to trade forward Troy Murphy before the Feb. 18 deadline. The Pacers have already tried to send him to Cleveland, but those talks didn't last long because they were asking for too much, according to a source. T.J. Ford just wants to playJeff Rabjohns T.J. Ford is approaching the possibility he could be traded by the Indiana Pacers in the next month as part of the business of the NBA. The starting point guard earlier in the season, Ford has been benched and hasn't played since Dec. 30 as Pacers coach Jim O'Brien has elected to go with Earl Watson as the starter and rookie A.J. Price as the backup. Pacers' Larry Bird listening to trade offersApparently Larry Bird isn’t the only one who likes Danny Granger’s game. Bird, who heads up player operations for the Indiana Pacers, has previously said he has little interest in trading Granger. That hasn’t kept other teams from inquiring as the Feb. 18 NBA trade deadline approaches. The most recent inquirer is familiar to the Pacers. Ford Demoted, On Trading BlockPacers point guard T.J. Ford is on the trading block, which is and isn't news. It might be news to those of you hanging onto him in fantasy leagues clinging to the hope that he'll soon get his starting job back from Earl Watson, but it isn't news to anyone in an NBA front office.
