    ANY chance we get to move him should be taken. He has value as a 2 way player and has been the x factor for a while. His contract and health are concerning. His value is up this year because his play has surpassed the size of contract. All is well with him. BUT, I can’t shake last season, his injuries, and his age. He is in prime so it only goes down from here.
    The trade he moves the needle for the Hawks in a big way. Everything they lack he brings. By adding a draft pick with him. We can get a really nice return for him and split up his contract into 2 players. Hunter role for the Hawks is much like Egos. At this moment Ego is a better player, BUT OO is the reason for the trade. We will not get a player in the draft as good as OO. OO is stuck on a roster with to many other bigs. Hunter and OO are both younger, full sized, coachable talents. In a few years this trade will be look back on as a moved that help both teams.

    In the proposed trade they got 2FRP and Oladipo. That seems more than fair but you are probably right nonetheless.

    I will get roasted for this, but Detroit's unprotected first in 2022 would be worth eating Griffin's contract next year and then he is off books.

    Hell ya, any unprotected pick from a bad team to take on dead money is exactly what we should be doing

    Buddy Hield and Frp for Dipo.


    I’m getting desperate at the moment

    Teams dipo won’t resign with won’t trade for him unless they think there’s a possibility they can convince him by a big playoff run or something

    that means Orlando and Sacramento and other teams like that are probably out of it

    Negotiation 101.

    Dipo is better fit for us than Hield.

    Or team depends on 2 way players to maximize our system.

    McLemore is a better 3ball shooter than Hield but he is liability because of weak defense.

    Hield will struggle on defense even more.

    Would love Nance Jr., he would be perfect for this team.

    But he's a hometown kid on a very good contract, doubt they trade him. Tucker and House is also nowhere near enough.

    That is why I suggested it and was wondering how bad Cleveland wants the playoffs this year. Also would add one of our other heavily protected pick to Cleveland. Nance and Herro are young enough and valuable enough to be part of the re-build.

    Seen an interesting rumor.
    Knicks aren't done.
    Knicks will supposedly try and contact the Rockets about Dipo, Mclemore and Tucker.
    supposedly with an offer of Barrett and a couple fillers and a FRP.

    the rumor involves the Mavs frp the Knicks own. I think it’s 100% unprotected.

    the question is will the Mavs turn it around and make the playoffs?

    If the Knicks trade Barrett for Dipo...The fans should burn down MSG. I’m not even a huge fan of Barrett but his value has to be higher than a trade for Dipo
