If he could stay healthy he's a really good 3rd guy in the Horry mold. Shoots/passes into the post well/plays good defense/can guard multiple positions. Dont ask him to be your 1st or 2nd best player and hope he stays healthy and you might have something.
Not liking this news at all. Nuggets want to recreate their Jerami-MPJ forwards dynamic with AG, this chatter has come up often at different points this season. Dont let it happen Stone!!!!
I'd take Wiggins and Wiseman or Wiggins and that Minny FRP over anything anyone else can offer. Even with throwing in PJ. It's not even close. But I love the idea of AG too ( i like him as an asset more than a player but the flier is interesting) and a bonus is you would be happy.
And we laugh at the delusion of other fandoms. You are getting Wiseman or the Minny pick for an expiring Oladipo. They would laugh you off the phone.
I would be okay with losing him for nothing if I thought they would spend that money elsewhere on something better, but I don’t think they will. They should, of course, but I doubt that they will. Hope I’m wrong!
You do realize the reason you get that kind of asset is because you're taking on Wiggins right? Worst contract in the NBA and if they don't trade him they will never win a championship again with Steph and Klay. But yes, thanks for calling me names. So lets be honest with their value. Wiggins is worth 0 in a trade. (more likely he's worth -5) The pick or Wiseman is worth 10 Oladipo is worth 7 PJ is worth 6 they have a three year window to win. Wiseman nor that pick will get them over the hump. They either sign Oladipo to a reasonable 3 year deal to fit the window or they let him go in a SNT.
I don't believe the trade is realistic either, but let's not pretend Oladipo is the only ingredient in that trade. We'd be taking on Wiggin's albatross of a contract, too.
The Warriors have three assets and one would be required in a trade. The 2027 would not be worth taking on Wiggins not a chance. It would be Oubre + filler + 2027 pick for Oladipo. Their own 2027 FRP Wiseman Minnesota pick Otherwise there is no deal. I couldn't see a deal being made with the Warriors. I see a trade with Miami or New York in a three way with Orlando. I don't think there is a deal but someone i've literally never seen post decided to throw darts at me in a drive - by and you read his bio he is from the bay.
Oladipo is not a difference maker, he isn’t taking any team over the hump Oladipo has been significantly worse than Wiggins this very season
Me neither, but it all comes down to price. If it costs a mix of Oladipo/Tucker/House, sure. I'd be a bit annoyed If we are giving up any current picks to get him. I'd rather just give KMJ the starting spot.
It's easy to be negative about everything when things have gone bad. It's just a wave of negativity around here and it is an easy way to get likes and laughs. Misery loves company.
