    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Is Oladipo even that much of a trade asset? He's been pretty terrible since 2017-18, including this year. He's not cheap and he wants a big contract in the off-season. I'd view him as a negative trade asset, honestly.

    I like Oladipo but I just don't think he'd be happy coming off the bench. I think if true it's more for a 3 team deal sending him to Orlando somehow.

    He really has ridden that first all star campaign to having a lot of positive buzz on his name, and like you said, hasn't come near that since.

    he's an expiring contract. It gives the Rockets a potential option to resign him him to a reasonable contract and if not, then they clear Gordon's salary off next year's ledger

    for all we know, it could be an Oladipo for Fournier swap. See if Gordon sits out tonight too

    or maybe the Magic are using the trade to dump Bamba too and clear an additional 7.6M

    Question? If Magic are wanting a high price for Gordon you willing to pay it? What in your mind would be good for both teams.
    I say, send the Kid home, throw in either little or DJ & Hood. But for Gordon and MCW. I think they will get better offers than that? Not sure id do more though except maybe Trent for DJ.

    Orlando also wants to trade Evan Fournier.

    I think you really only get one chance to "go for it" when you have a superstar in his prime like Dame. Personally, I'm glad Neil hasn't traded away the moon previously.

    And yes, the clock is ticking, but there's no room for error.
