Roy Hibbert would not mind a trade and a fresh start

This guy is a scrub. Some crazy games v. Miami on national TV and he's an all-star.

 

The thread title tricked me into unignoring your post. We have Howard, why would we want Hibbert?

Also the linked article is not a news story, which this thread indicates. Very misleading.

Now if that PROPOSED SCENARIO ends up occuring I can see a way to get involved and get Love.

Indiana get Pekovic, Lin, Brewer
Timberwolves get Hibbert, Jones, Watson and picks
Houston get Love

Indiana: Let Stephenson and Turner walk, get a big with more scoring, Brewer a more sane version of Stephenson, a scoring point guard.
Timberwolves: Get a replacment for Pek on a better contract, Jones a future stud to replace Love, shooting to back up Rubio. Off course they will get picks, mainly from Houston.
Rockets: We get Love.



This trade just like yours already has a place. The Random trade thread. Propose a trade for a hypothetical scenario.

 

He needs to be traded to the WNBA

 

Roy Hibbert is garbage

 

Asik might be the most consistent player in the league right now.

 

Hibbert had a tough playoff run this year, but if im Indy I lose the coach and not hibbert.

We are underrating the importance of guard play. They need a clue and point guard, way too many times i saw hibbert catching the ball 12 and 15 ft out which makes no sense. Hill couldnt hit him with any entry passes so he would come out further and not be able to finish the play. Hibbert with a good point guard would be dominant.

That said, there really is no excuse for 0 rebound games. If Chris Bosh can grab a couple rebounds when he switches on defensive all the way out on the perimeter, Hibbert should be getting 10 boards a game. He needs to work on positional rebounding and not neccesarily using size only to rebound.

 

the jerk store called and they're running out of CarlHerrera's

 

anytime you have the opportunity to add an All NBA Defensive player you do it











except in this case

 

Hibbert needs to go to a team that has a hard-nosed coach who will crack the whip. Houston is not that place.

That said, Indiana's biggest problem isn't Hibbert, it's Vogel followed by the PG position.

 

Vogel? He is the guy who helped HIbbert became who he is after Hibbert was depressed by the whipping of former coach O'Brien.

Dude is just mentally soft. You saw his mood swings this postseason.

 

After seeing Hibbert in the playoffs, I would not touch him with a 10 foot pole. Dude is slow beyond belief and can't rebound to save his life.

$14 mil for 5 rebs/game.....no thanks.

 

Not bad. Not bad at all.

 

Sources: Pacers 'quietly' shopping big man Roy Hibbert

[rQUOTEr]After a flurry of rumors dating back a little more than a month, there has not been much to speak of when it comes to the possibility of Indiana moving center Roy Hibbert in a trade. But, according to multiple front-office sources, the Pacers have quietly sought out possible new landing spots for their enigmatic big man.

“I would say they’ve been doing that, but quietly,” one front-office source said.

The problem, of course, remains the two years and $30 million left on Hibbert’s contract, part of a max four-year deal he signed as a restricted free agent two summers ago. That is a weighty number for a guy who disappeared for long stretches in March and April, and continued to do so in the postseason, during which he averaged 9.3 points and 5.5 rebounds.

The Pacers are still trying to figure out how (and whether) to bring back shooting guard Lance Stephenson, after making him an offer of five years and $44 million. That’s about the ceiling they want to give Stephenson, unless they could clear some room at the top of the payroll to bump the offer up a little.

“They’re open to making major changes, if they’re there,” one general manager told Sporting News. “I think they’d be disappointed to see that same core group back intact, so it is a matter of, how drastic can the changes they make be? Moving Hibbert for multiple pieces would be a pretty drastic change, but they’re asking.”

One source noted the obvious, which is that star small forward Paul George is untouchable in any deal with the Pacers, and added that power forward David West was all but off the table, too. He added that Indiana’s preference would be to send Hibbert to the Western Conference.

Portland originally gave Hibbert his max offer, and the Blazers have been intermittently linked to Hibbert. But the Blazers are focused on keeping star power forward LaMarcus Aldridge with a contract extension and making smaller tweaks to their bench. A source labeled a Portland deal, “unlikely.”

The Pacers have had the quartet of Hibbert, West, George and point guard George Hill together for three years. Stephenson became part of that group two years ago. Indiana has been to the Eastern Conference finals the past two seasons, losing to the Heat both times. The Pacers lost to Miami in the conference semifinals the year before that.

Some of what the Pacers plan to do, then, depends on what happens in Miami. If, somehow, the Heat are not able to keep together their core of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, Indiana’s hopes in the East could be somewhat revitalized by the breakup of their nemesis. That could cause team president Larry Bird to ease off his desire to shake up the roster.

Bird has already pulled off one move, the signing of guard C.J. Miles for $18 million over four years. Miles could be the backup on the wing that Evan Turner was supposed to be, or he could move into the starting five if Stephenson gets a major offer to leave in free agency — that could yet happen, as teams with cap space will want to fill out their rosters once James and Knicks star Carmelo Anthony make their decisions on signing.

Bird pulled off another subtle move, re-signing forward/center Lavoy Allen, acquired from the Sixers as part of the Turner trade. Allen figures to play a bigger role this season, after playing in just 14 games for Indiana, with averages of 2.9 points and 2.4 rebounds in 8.0 minutes. He would probably play significantly more minutes if, indeed, Hibbert moves. [/rQUOTEr]

 

Hibbert can't rebound and the spacing would be atrocious!
