    He has no place in Indiana. I've always liked this guy and would like the Rockets to try to get him. I think he can play SF. With Griffin playing the 4, we could use him at SF. What do ya'll think? Some think he might be able to play C too but i kinda doubt with his slim body but ya never know.

    Don't worry, they're not letting him go. He's a project that they've invested too much in.

    That's true. Thomas really thinks Bender will make a big impact the next few years and has a great future in this league. Their other option at 3, Jalen Rose, is not playing well and is in Thomas dog house. As I see it, the Pacers won't part with Bender for anythign the Rockets can offer right now.

    We don't have anything to offer. I think with Harrington and Rose, they're set at the 3, but he's not going to be just given away for the sake of doing something. We don't have a lot of leverage as sad as it may seem.
