    Yes, let it be slightly more than Oladipo. 2 first rounders and 2 second rounders......throw in Michael Porter jr and "My Herro."

    Uh bad players don't consistently average 18 ppg in deep playoff runs as well as be a plus defender.

    He would automatically go into any playoff teams top 8.

    There is no way you need to bundle a pick with him, he does not make that much.

    How is averaging 18 ppg while shutting down guys like D Mitchell been mostly terrible or forgettable?

    I think I read somewhere that there are not many sellers in the market in the NBA, most teams are trying to improve. So a team like Houston will be at an advantage hopefully.

    his insanely low BBIQ on offense, the bricks, and the constant yelling and crying to the refs on every single drive...I can’t wait until he’s gone

    Dipo to Knicks and then shift other assets from someone like Magic in 3 team deal. Don't want to trade with Heat for a lot of reasons including one you mention.

    I think he sometimes try to do too much but always plays hard so I can overlook everything else.

    It’s interesting to imagine how different opinion on him would be without the gestures after every drive. I think it’s definitely affected my perception of him.

    Is that you Kevin McHale?? *Clap* *Clap* "Just keep throwing up those contested 30 footers and complaining to the refs harder Eric". I'm sorry but the majority of this board has overrated the hell out of this guy for years now.

    I think Ego downfall was playing with harden (ironically). I recalled before them pairing up, Ego was a hot commodity. Problem playing with harden is that guy was so good that Ego talent/skill just went to sht. U don't really have to polish your game or anything if harden's gravity gives u wide open ass shot. Now that harden is gone, man gotta polish his skills again.

    I mean you just tried to justify anything he does wrong on the court because he "plays hard', not exactly showing off brilliant expertise yourself there guy.

    fantasy GM'ing is fun!

    full tank and rebuild here we come.

    is it unwatchable basketball? Sure. Is the goal to win a ring? Yes.. and that wasn't happening.

    Exactly, I don’t get the hate for Gordon, he’s had a good career. He’s just better fitted for a non rebuilding team. Hopefully we’ll get another draft pick out of the deal.

    At least there was an outside chance, and the product was entertaining.

    Now we're pretty much guaranteed not to have a title for at least 5 years, and in the meantime watching this team is painful.
