    take out the three expirings the offers look like nassir little vs kuzema and a 1st. Quite a bit more value in the lakers offer IMHO. tj warren already starts @ small fwd for indiana, while danny green replaces oladipo at the 2 providing much improved 3pt. shooting and excellent defense.

    Kuzma is trash. We can throw in a first which will be better than theirs.

    Oladipo is the wrong partner for Dame. Jrue Holiday and JJ Reddick for CJ and Ariza - perhaps expand this by adding Ingram for Collins

    Yeah of course i d prefer Jrue, but you don't get Ingram even if you give them CJ+Zach+1st round pick

    What does it change? You suggested to include him in the trade not me. I talked about his value. He will sign a max contract the coming months.

    This seems to be a pattern in Indiana. First PG13 and Hibbert, now VO and Turner. Li'l Sabas needs to be careful.

    Also add David West opting out of a huge option to take a minimum contract.

    Not sure what VO wants but can understand the other three. Pg13 was mad they did not pursue AD more heavily. Hibbert underperformed heavily once he got his contract and Bird was not shy talking about it. I think Turner has more of an issue with play on the court with Sabas. They are just not a good pairing.

    Sabas is fine IMO. Indy will be a team that it good enough to make the playoffs every year but do not have a realistic chance of winning it all.

    Oladipo sounds like a big diva.

    Or just a guy very very dissatisfied with his work environment. I realize these guys get paid an incredible amount of money but who among us hasn't had a job where the culture turns to shit and we start to get our resume out there. I think we irrationally hold athletes to different standards than anyone else on things that are no different than every day people face. He hasn't said shit in the media, it's all sources that say he wants out. A diva move is to say you want a trade in an on the record interview. I don't think players owe their teams a damn thing. I love players like Dame and Dirk that fall in love with their team and see their career as some kind of commitment and I admire people that work for the same company their whole career but I don't blame those who don't feel or act that way.

    George is working on his 4th team in 5 years. Sorry, but I don't buy that he is blameless!

    I wanna get out of Indiana too (Lord knows, I've been trying), but that's going too far.
