Yeah we aren't trading lyles. Hill is 29 years old.

Nobody knows what DL will do and I certainly don't think Lyles is untradable. It would depend on what the team wants. If they want to start winning now it's an ideal situation even before Exum's injury and especially now after. Right now Hill is a superior player to Exum and it isn't even close and again this was before the injury. If anything the Pacers are the ones who'd likely say no IMO.

Since you made the list and Hill is on it. I'm curious what do you think it'll take to get the Pacers to trade him?

Yeah Hill is one of the less likely guys we could get and there hasn't been a lot of chatter about him. I didn't think he would take a ton to get though. I would offer Burke and a 1st round pick. I've wanted to go ask pacer fans what it would take to trade for him.

I would think losing Exum makes the value for Hill go up in Bird's mind. Honestly I think the asking price starts at Burke, Lyles, and two first rounders. And they'll have to meet somewhere at Burke, Lyles and one 1st. Which if you are DL and the goal is to compete it's costly but affordable.

That just feels like a crazy offer for Hill. Hasn't he only done well like last season?
 
I think we need to give Burke a crack at it before rushing out into the trade market. Had the injury happened pre-draft we could likely get someone. Trey could improve with less dribbling and a better shot selection... He could play a little more like Exum on offense, but provide a better late shot clock option than Exum.

We need to wait... If we are still having issues at the point teams will fall out of contention and potentially look to rebuild or retool. Lowry, Hill, Collison, Bledsoe or Knight, Bradley or IT, could all become available depending on team performance. I'd keep an eye on Houston with Beverly and Minnesota with Rubio (although I really don't understand why Minny people think he's like a superstar). Jennings also might prove he's healthy and be had for a decent price because of the mammoth deal they gave to Jackson. Right now those guys would cost a lot of assets... in January though maybe not. Patience for now.

I'm not a big Burke believer, but I wouldn't give up on him just yet given our current situation at point..
