Dallas trades: PF Danny Fortson (2.7 ppg, 3.9 rpg, 0.0 apg in 11.0 minutes)
PG Travis Best (3.1 ppg, 1.3 rpg, 2.2 apg in 16.0 minutes)

PG Jamaal Tinsley (1.8 ppg, 0.8 rpg, 1.8 apg in 10.5 minutes)
Change in team outlook: -2.8 ppg, -1.6 rpg, and -0.2 apg.

Indiana receives: PF Danny Fortson (2.7 ppg, 3.9 rpg, 0.0 apg in 9 games)

Change in team outlook: +2.8 ppg, +1.6 rpg, and +0.2 apg.

TRADE ACCEPTED

Due to Dallas and Indiana being over the cap, the 15% trade rule is invoked. Dallas and Indiana had to be no more than 115% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Nice try, but I don't see it happening. Pollard would be a nice 15 minute player here, but Indy wouldn't go for Forston or Best. They could have had Best for a cup of tea this offseason. I don't want to say Forston is untradeable because we have traded two players over the past two years who I thought were untradeable, but Fortson will be very difficult to move.
