Indiana Pacers Receive: G Kemba Walker
New York Knicks Receive: G Jeremy Lamb
This NBA trade scenario would be a simple player-for-player swap with Kemba Walker heading to the Indiana Pacers in exchange for Jeremy Lamb.

The Pacers, on the other hand, are stuck aggressively in mediocrity with no real outlook of getting out. That doesn’t mean they won’t keep pushing trying to swim upstream.
