nba can take its time with the bubble, I don't think we will have next season's regular season until fans are back (either with vaccine or super rapid testing/social distanced seating)

You can make a pretty good squad with these guys. Add Bobbanovic shooters.

How do we feel about trading for Dipo in the offseason on a 1 year prove it deal before he hits free agency? His play seemed to improve over the course of the series, and there's a good chance he will do well in Spo's system and be further removed from his injury. Would Indy go for something like Nunn + 2020 FRP + filler? Also Dipo's long term deal,2021 free agency and Duncan Robinson's bag to consider.

Keep whispering those sweet nothings in Doncic's ear, Gogi.

Shanedude - we've discussed Dipo a fair bit in another thread. Most people are 50/50 on it due to having to pay a guy like Dipo large dollars post 2021 with his injury history. I think it's clear he would help improve our team in the short term though.

Joker with that subtle reveal of guilt/shame knowing he just went full binge mode ordering off his diet menu thinking the season was shambling away

I posed this question on the Indy board just recently. They don't have many posters over there, but I got two responses. The more level headed of the two posters said he figured Dipo at $20 million per year seemed realistic (exactly what Indy offered him btw), but didn't like Nunn/pick/filler. The other poster thought Dipo was deserving of a supermax deal and really didnt like that package.

I don't think it's particularly good as an offer, but Victors career and injuries don't exactly instill confidence. If he is going to be a Heat, he will have to take $20 mil/year or slightly less. We need a top ten level player more than we need Dipo, who was never close to that.
