If this goes through then i gotta say Bird pulled off a decent trade for Tinsley after all.

The New York Post has reported that the Pacers have traded Jamaal Tinsley to the Nuggets for Chucky Atkins and Steven Hunter, but Mike Wells of the Indianapolis Star says the report isn't true.

Wells spoke with representatives from both teams on Friday morning, who confirmed that no deal has been agreed upon.

Indiana has been in talks with Denver about Tinsley, but they have spoken to a majority of teams as they look to unload Tinsley.

I read another article saying that its pending a physical and thats why the teams are not confirming it....

Unless they play with two basketballs in denver, i do not see how this distribution is going to work.

Nice work to unload that contract by Bird if this turns out to be true.

Nuggets just officially imploded. This trade is the icing on top of the cake that was the Camby trade.

Did you just say cake when refering to Tinsley, bonus points.

If its true, Pacers had a nice off season. Dumped Tinsley, dumped JO for TJ Ford AND a draft pick. Traded Jerryd Bayless for Rush and Jack. They might sneak in on a #8 spot.

So whats the over/under on when AI demands to be traded? Jan 15?

Probably won't go through when stuff like this comes out but who knows....

The first thing that George Karl did when he arrived at practice on Friday was apologize to Chucky Atkins and Steven Hunter about the rumors that the duo would be traded to the Indiana Pacers for Jamaal Tinsley, the Denver Post is reporting.

"He is a guy that we had talked about, but when I heard all the stuff this morning, I was laughing," Karl said. "I don't think it's that hot. But I shouldn't be answering that question."

Karl said that the rumor, which has been shot down by both sides, had an effect on Friday's practice.

"I don't think it was good for the morale of the practice," Karl said. "I talked to Chucky and Steven before practice and laughed about it. They're older guys. They've been in the league and probably have read their name in too many gossip columns. Rex (Chapman, Nuggets vice president of player personnel) apologized, and I apologized for putting them through it. But I don't think there's anything to it."

that would really have destroyed the nuggets. that would be 5 players who like the ball in their hands(him, melo, AI, jr, k-mart) and they would definetly be the new knicks

The Nuggets are right on the verge of becoming the next Knicks. They have all the makings.

Early-mid 90's player at the helm
Easily manipulated into paying way too much (Nene)
Strapping themselves into terrible, almost untradeable contracts (Nene)
Giving away too much for too little (Camby)
Too many ball-handlers
Repeatedly taking risks that fail

They are roughly two years and a Melo or Iverson run for greener pastures and they are officially a trainwreck to look at when you're done with the Knicks.
