That's why team officials want to make a trade for the first time in nearly two years. The two players they're trying to move are T.J. Ford and Mike Dunleavy, according to sources. Ford isn't surprising because the Pacers have been trying to unload him for some time. Dunleavy is the surprising one because coach Jim O'Brien has always held him in high regard due to his ability to grasp the offense. The Pacers have a logjam at the wing spot with the addition of Paul George last month. The problem the Pacers are running into with Dunleavy is that he'll make $10.5 million next season and there are concerns about whether he can regain his touch from the 2007-08 season when he averaged 19.1 points and shot nearly 48 percent from the field. Dunleavy had major knee surgery in March 2009 and he never found a rhythm last season. He averaged 9.9 points, his lowest total since his rookie year, last season. Word is Dunleavy's having an impressive offseason working out in New York. The Pacers have a received a number of calls about Troy Murphy, but they're reluctant to move the double-double player because of the uncertainty surrounding the health of Jeff Foster and Tyler Hansbrough, according to a source. Murphy is more likely to be moved at the trade deadline if those two players are healthy. The Pacers' goal remains the same: get a veteran point guard. "We've got a lot of young talent that's needing experience," said president Larry Bird, who added that they're not going to hurry to just make a deal. "You like to see if we can get something done, especially at the point position." The Pacers have to find a way to acquire a veteran player because all they've done this summer is add three more young players to an already youthful roster. They're one of the few teams that has yet to sign a free agent (luxury tax concerns) or make a trade. twitter.com/wells222 重點節錄: 1. 溜馬高層宣布要兜售 Ford 和 Dunleavy 兩張到期約 Ford 依然能打,但被因為打法差易被冰; Dunleavy 日前在紐約的訓練不錯 2. 由於 Foster 跟 Hansbrough 的傷勢仍在觀望中,因此高層暫時不想賣 Murphy 但如果佛爺和漢堡兩人都很健康的話, Murphy 有可能在交易截止日被送走 3. 溜馬仍就是想要靠交易弄來個有經驗的控球後衛 -- 就算有病，只要肯面對… 仍然可以有幸福 from《天生一對 2 become 1》 --
