    This trade caught my eye.
    MIL
    Perhaps the Bucks need to trade Middleton. While he is all-around talented, he might not be the perfect fit alongside Giannis. The Bucks acquire a more dynamic offensive player in CJ McCollum, along with the defensive ace, Derrick Jones Jr. Who has improved his jump shot dramatically over the last few days. McCollum is also one of the clutches players in the league, his skills will be very much needed in the playoffs. Also, McCollum has improved his range and defense dramatically this year. Having a backcourt of Holiday and McCollum would provide the Bucks with an elite offensive and defensive game.

    Jrue Holiday - CJ McCollum - Derrick Jones Jr - Giannis Antetokounmpo - Brook Lopez OR

    Jrue Holiday - CJ McCollum - Giannis Antetokounmpo - Bobby Portis - Brook Lopez

    POR
    The Blazers have proven to be a consistent threat every year, but every year they face the same problems. Defense. With this trade, the Blazers acquire two all-NBA defenders. Middleton and Oladipo provide a different, yet consistent offense and they might be a better fit alongside Dame than McCollum.

    Damian Lillard - Victor Oladpio - Khris Middleton - Robert Covington - Jusuf Nurkic.

    HOU
    The Rockets continue down the rebuild road and get two young prospects in which they can develop. Also, the two first-round picks sweeten the deal.


    Acquire 2 FRPs, Zach Collins, DJ Wilson, Rodney Hood. For us this is perfect. Can even help us in our pursuit of John Collins

    That's fine. Guess taking back KCP is worth another late 1stvrd pick. Add it to the collection.

    Yeah it's starting to look that way, the one season was an outlier.

    I will say this I think a lot of his issues this year is the contract, he looks like needs that security and uncertainty affects him.

    You want to explain how he is agrreing with you?

    Sure does not seem he thinks you can get 2 FRP's or a FRP and a rotational piece.

    "Miami and New York are rumored to have interest in Oladipo, and Houston has to hope that one of those teams will roll the dice on him. Both have the flexibility to trade for Oladipo without giving up any major pieces from their team. It’s not like either squad will have many great options in free agency next summer, either, since so many of the top names have taken themselves off the market. If the Rockets play their cards right, they might be able to get one future first and a young player for Oladipo."

    Did you miss the might part?

    That's a far cry from this.

    "Not 2 FRP anymore. 1 FRP and a young rotational piece. I think the most likely packages are A FRP, Achiuwa and Kz Okpala or a FRP, Frank and Kevin Knox."

    But hey if you think that gives you credence more power to you.

    I changed my valuation based on his play. My 2FRP was a month ago. Now it’s 1FRP and a good young player or two okay ones. Things change. Wait until he’s traded to gloat. I keep getting suckered into talking to you. I read your bio and see you’re from Florida. Makes sense. You post like you have to fight people at Publix every day.

    Were in that does it say his value is that?

    The article says he MIGHT be able to get a FRP and a young player, not a good young player and that's still a huge might.

    I am not from Florida so I don't now what the heck you are talking about or what's that's supposed to mean.

    Suckered in to talking to me? LOL.

    You think you have a point and want to try and prove it but are continually failing.

    I have not fought anybody since the 7th grade and unlike you don't feel the need to prove myself on a message board.

    Still waiting on the proof I attack people in every thread.

    Can you block me so you can’t read my posts? I’d really appreciate it.

    Jiggyfly isn’t a Harden fan he’s just a hard head. I saw your Twitter and it’s literally just Harden stats. You are a Harden only fan. It’s ok. You seem like a nice guy. You’re just a strange Rockets fan if you are one.

    I am most definitely a Harden fan and how the hell am I a hard head because I know Oladipo is not worth a FRP and a good young player?

    man, I went through your posts. 99% are you arguing with others. You’re genuinely mean.

    ‘You’re a Harden only fan? I didn’t get that from your posts.

    I was a big Harden fan from 2007-2020. Now I’ll be a fan again when he retires.

    Lol ive been a fan since I was in my teenage years but I don’t need to prove myself to you since I’m secure in my fandom. I’ve been a fan during the years of cat and Francis to the overweight washed up Glen rice and Mo Taylor and the rest in peace Eddie Griffin .

    Btw, you can be a fan of the Rockets and still appreciate what the former player did for the franchise when the team was on its knees.

    You seem like you literally hate this team and root against them. I just assumed you were a Harden fan. My bad.

    At this point, I'd be very happy to get the Pistons 2nds and a big TPE from the Knicks for Dipo


    Ntilikina, Pistons 21 & 23 2nds for Oladipo.

    No I hate that John Wall who calls himself the franchise can’t even get this team over the line for a single win. I hate seeing the Rockets losing by 20 to 50 every night.

    I hate that Tillman is not willing to spend and actually made fun of the Warriors owner for paying actual luxury tax. That’s the kind of person he is.


    I don’t like losing

    Nobody is a Harden only fan, and you got an issue with me?

    I only argue with a select group of people and it's nowhere near 99% that says a lot about the way you view the world.
