I really liked Oladipo. Great 2 way player, seemed like a cool guy. Seemed like he never found his groove on this team. I wish him all the best. That dunk of the year was amazing.

Was a decent player. Thought he was going to do a lot better this season. Thanks for the effort Vic.

Good kid, good player. I stand that he's worth that contract and wish him well.

I saw. I didn't like it. Fake tough guy to me. Happy he's gone

(Still a pretty underrated defender and improved a lot his 3 pts % so who knows...)

EDIT : to be fair with him, he needs the ball in his hands and that's why he wasn't a good fit in OKC

You know I had this guy on my Fantasy team his last two years with Orlando... I totally anticipated he'd blow back up in Indiana as the teams primary guy. Couldn't have happened to a nicer kid, it's a shame he never got to be the anchor on the bench unit as the primary ball handler on the floor and a potential 6th man of the year in OKC like Presti was envisioning.

As an aside if the all-star teams swapped Horford over to team Lebron we could actually see the "What could have been" thunder of Westbrook, Durant, Horford and Oladipo all out on the floor together. I'm never going to let any GSW fan I meet in real life forget about it.
