    I too want him to imitate into KD but people want him to bulk up. He may lose his fluidness in movement if he bulks up.

    Then he needs to get stronger. Sorry but the dude ain't defending anyone while being pushed around like a rag doll.

    To all that think we will receive anything from Miami. If it was worth having the Pacers would already have it.

    If he wants to stay
    I prefer him over Wall really.

    Why not both?

    It's actually a good fit and the team would be a playoff team for the next few years while they wait for Brooklyn to be terrible and hope that one of their draft picks hit.

    Wall/Wood/Oladipo could form some real chemistry and be a genuinely good team going forward. No championship expectations but look how that worked out for the last 6 years or so, also look how Miami was viewed last year. No expectations can sometimes lead to lightning in a bottle.

    Hopefully not in the same way Harden told Wall he was excited.

    Not necessarily. LeVert is a good get but the Rockets are likely trying to be cheap.

    Honestly I figure Oladipo next to Wall . . would be like Oladipo next to Westbrook

    Is the trade nullified with the kidney mass they found on LaVert's MRI?

    I hope and pray it's a benign tumor. Younger people sometimes have them.

    If he can become as strong as Capela without losing his athleticism and movement, he will be in great shape.
