Ibaka is a perfect compliment to Vucevic.
There's something about an underdog that really inspires the unexceptional.

OKC gets Oladipo to match up better with Curry/Klay --- just adding an outstanding on ball defender.

Plus throw in Sabonis who is an animal on the boards and Ilysova is an underrated pick-up who is another long /versatile defender.

Don't see this as a rebuild trade at all but if KD coming to Knicks I'm down for that.

Agreed, but I'm not sure Oladipo was the best return

Ibaka should've become a lot better than he is right now...he stagnated and then started regressing. He's still only 26, so maybe a change of scenery will do him some good in a contract year.

He can fill the Harden role they've been missing imo, have him be the super 6th man.
