It's All But Official, Jermaine O'Neal for TJ Ford

I will be shocked if JO even passe's the physical what the f%#^ was colangelo thinking ! the trade with portland would have been much better getting channing frye and martell webster and not losing a first round pick sigh golden boy brian is way overrated...

I think your raptors made a bold move, sometimes you gotta take risks, I have a feeling JO will play much better in toronto, he clearly wasn unhappy in indiana.

OK, first off TJ Ford is just as questionable in term of a constantly injured bench warmer as JO. Secondly, Jamaal Tinsley will either be traded or Bird will buy out his contract and release him. Which means he will not return in a Pacers uniform. I also wouldn't rule out Shawnie Williams being gone next seaosn as well and there's even a pretty slim chance that Marquese Daneils will be gone next season as well, but I highly doubt that will happen since he only has 1 year left on his over priced contract.

First off your perception of Ford is completely in accurate. You as many in the south no nothing about him. You are hearing too many media reports. This dude is flat out quick and probably the best guard the pacers have ever had. His only true down fall is his cockiness can get carried away and he has tendancies to get the job done on his own. Dude most players get injured including JO.Bench warmer for TJ is another wrong word to choose. Its called politics my friend. The scheme was to groom Calderon and resort TJ to the bench which caused problems, they are both starting point guards.
In conclusion you guys got a good guy there. You will see.If I had it my way , I would have kept TJ and sign and trade Calderon.That way we could have at least 3 of your players with JO included.
