    Incoming: "this trade sucks" comments. We were just convinced we were going to lose him for nothing at all. So anything we get here is better than that haha.

    Let's just hope BKN 2022 FRP is included in the swap. Otherwise I cry.

    Wait, is the swap related to the OKC swap? I’m confused.

    I know we are all over Oladipo here but holy crap... Pat Riley got insane value with this trade, and it really could catapult them. Even if it's just a half season rental, they basically got a really solid scorer to take a huge load off of Butler for.... nothing.

    Lol. Well, you can't expect much more than expirings for expirings. Wonder what the swap is.

    Maybe it's no longer Houston gets the worst of OKC, MIA, or HOU (top 3 protected) and now it's the worst of OKC or HOU?

    That’s what I’m wondering. That could end up being valuable.

    Lol the headline said they were happy with the offers including a young asset for Dipo....Bradley and Olynk? Really?

    If the swap is 2022 nets for a 2nd rounder that aint so bad otherwise this is a dumbass trade.

    Any way we can get LeVert back? Wow... This one blew up in our face. And from the look of it from last night's game, Wall is gonna want out too.

    It has to be - no point in including swap rights with ours it's less valuable than Sergei Lishouk.

    Why would you trade oladipo to Miami? If that was the only trade on the table don’t take it. Why strengthen that team and lower our possible pick? Terribad trade.

    Wtf happened to the young players and drafts? 29 yr old Bradley and 30 yr old Olynk?

    I guess this was all a smokescreen hoping for someone to take the bait. What a fail SMH.

    No one can say that I didnt give Stone a chance to redeem himself.

    I've been riding his nuts since he was promoted to GM and if he thought that was rough, he hasn't seen anything yet.

    Stone is a buffoon.

    LOL
