Yeah, we're starting to see All Star Victor. He hasn't played like this since he got hurt and had surgery. Two #1's PLUS a good young player? You'll definitely continue to hear the extension talk, probably with SOME credence, but now that leverage has teeth.
Well, I'm sure there's, "I hate this. Trade me." "I know this sucks, but as for a trade? Play better to make it worth our while."
The rumor was that Ricky Rubio + draft assets were going to be traded for AG, not sure what the draft assets would have been, but trading Dipo for AG seems like a high price, I think AG's value is at an all time low. I think we could have AG by moving other pieces, and get a better return for Oladipo. I know we have lost like 17 games in a row, but we have a lot of veteran assets I feel like could be flipped. If we tank and get a top 4 pick and don't mess it up, this rebuild might be fast. It is unfortunate EG got injured, we could have gotten a respectable return for him imo.
Dipo was hooping last night though. Looked explosive. Solid defensively. He really is a much better catch and shoot player than a dribble pull up player. He needs to eliminate dribble pull ups from his game almost entirely. That’s why he’s been so inefficient.
I see your train of thought but I happen to disagree. I think Oladipo's value is at an all time low while gordon is the one drawing interest around the league. I think if we want to outbid everyone else for AG it will be oladipo and the bucks 2021, or something like that.
It's true he's taking inefficient shots, but this is a pattern so I put it more on coach. KPJ, Wall and Dipo are all far too comfortable dribbling into a contested mid range pull up - unquestionably the lowest efficiency shot in all of basketball, easily the dumbest. Oladipo would be great if he played like an Eric Gordon 2.0 - catch and shoot 3's and aggressive drives to the basket should be his bread and butter. I guess Harden made me forget you need a coach to tell people not to take dumb shots.
