Went back and read what I 1st posted to see what I actually posted, I thought it was a fair evaluation. Started to read some replies and whoa, a lot of people where stanning for him. Not gonna name names but somebody actually said we could get 2 FRP for him. Yikes.
He hasn’t been traded yet. I’m standing steady. You can reply to me I’m not behind a paywall. 1FRP and 1 player recently drafted in the first. Do you ever trick yourself into thinking your negativity brings anything to the table? The original post was before Wood got hurt too. I’m not responding to your negativity ever again you’re a miserable conversation.
How do you know I don't have access? Can you provide the link? You still think we can get 2 FRP's for him?
What was negative about my post starting this thread? What does it matter when Wood got hurt if he was worth 2 FRP's then he should still be worth that. I was not gonna call you out specifically but you could not help getting caught up in your feelings so now everybody knows your eye for talent is not great. Hit dog holla.
Read his most recent QA. Says Silas is high on him and was a major part of bringing him in. It’s been on podcasts too and one more article I cannot remember. Not 2 FRP anymore. 1 FRP and a young rotational piece. I think the most likely packages are A FRP, Achiuwa and Kz Okpala or a FRP, Frank and Kevin Knox.
hate watching this scrub in a rockets uniform can’t we just send him down to the vipers, switch him out for porter?
My eye for talent? I didn’t like the trade, I never wanted Oladipo. I wanted Simmons, Thybulle and Maxey. Wait until Victor is traded before you dunk on me. I tend to be a bit optimistic on returns in trades but my eye for talent and nuance is so much more valuable than your constant negativity. You post like you’re actually nic cage on a bender and you’re one of the most negative posters here, nothing you post brings anything positive to anyone’s day, There’s plenty of negativity in the world, try to be a light.
If you ever thought Oladipo could have gotten 2 FRP's yeah your eye for talent is questionable. What constant negativity are you talking about please show it. Saying I don't see Oladipo is a franchise player is negative? Saying I want to see more from Wood before I say he is a franchise player is negative? Please show examples of this negativity sir.
Every single post you make comes off as incredibly negative and aggressive, you start fights in almost every thread you’re in. I’ll talk to you after the trade.
So you can't give examples. The negativity came for me in this thread not the other way around. Everybody on here is aggressive, but you have issues with me. Can you show examples of me starting fights in every thread or even this thread?
When has he ever been good? Put up numbers on a bad Magic team. Did nothing in OKC. Went back East had 1 good season against scrubs for the Pacers and made an all star team and now he's back to being just a dude. Seems like his 1 good year was more of a fluke compared to the rest of his career. Not an impact player. Not a guy you can build around. At best the 3rd best player on a championship team but wants to be paid like a number 1. When you watch Oladipo play, what is his elite skill? Its funny that his best skill has nothing to do with basketball.
Dipo is a solid player but that's about it. The big problem is there's actually levels to this. Rockets fans were spoiled by Harden for nearly a decade. Now that you go from a true elite mvp caliber player like that to wannabe's like Dipo/Wall etc. it looks that much worse, because games Harden's puts up basically every night can't come close to duplicated by these players. Eventually the lens is going to have to be adjusted. Folks are looking for that franchise player in the aftermath. nobody here comes close to it.
Article suggesting Lakers-Rockets deal: more than I could ever imagine getting. https://www.nbaanalysis.net/2021/02/28/this-lakers-rockets-trade-features-victor-oladipo-to-l-a/ Houston in: Jared Dudley / Markieff Morris / K Caldwell-Pope / 1st round pick x Lakers in: Oladipo I would rather go: Harrell/Jared Dudley/Markieff/McKinney/Wes Matthews/ 1st rd ok (I know they like Harrell too much) https://tradenba.com/trades/u-v82D_Tp
They won't give up Harrell. WE did, easily; Dan Tony wouldn't play him, Harrell was starting to chuck three pointers just to get PT here. Anyway, the Lakers pick wouldn't convey until 2023 (I think?)
No one in their right mind given how pathetic wall has played and that ludicrously bad deal that is attached to him will touch him with a 10 foot pole Russ dumbrick has more value then Johnny iso ball hog wall has.
