The Bubble FTW! Those guys had too much time amongst each other to collab on their next moves.

Re: Oladipo looking to "move on" from the Pacers
is Ola ever the same player again though... doubt it.
he probably wants to go somewhere to a lesser role but has a shot to win etc.
Turner absolutely makes sense to bail after Sabo stole his thunder

What's with the Pacers that they want out en masse?

Indiana Pacers trade Victor Oladipo, Myles Turner and draft picks to the LA Clippers for Paul George and Rodney McGruder.

Re: Oladipo looking to "move on" from the Pacers
Oladipo is cooked as a star level player, imo. Even before his injury he wasn’t replicating his 2017/2018 production. He was averaging 19 ppg on 52% TS leading up to his injury. By the time the season starts, it will have been nearly three years since his 2018 season.

He had that 1 great season, but it may be a blip in his career. He was a negative player in the playoffs and he hasn't been the same since his injury.
I don't see him as a piece that pushes a contender over the top.
Agree. Indiana isn’t going to get a ton for him. Maybe a couple mid/late FRPs and some expiring $$ that isn’t too bad.
Kelly, Nunn and pick 20 - who says no ?

I previewed a similar trade on the Pacers board and got shot down by a couple posters. They still believe he's a superstar.

Pacers. They won’t get a haul for Dipo but that’s light.

They're going to be pretty disappointed then with the return. An expiring rotation piece, a young prospect on a rookie deal and late 1st is roughly where I'd peg his current value.
It's going to be something like Kelly, Nunn and pick 20, or Powell, Davis II and pick 29. Maybe Hayward and mid 1st. Nothing amazing, but some solid pieces.

its still a poor offer for a former all star only 27/28, Nunn in playoff look nothing like regular season n hes a 25yr rookie lol

IND is built similarly to MIA who is currently in the finals. A healthy Dipo could make IND just as good if not better

Re: Oladipo looking to "move on" from the Pacers
Even if you traded for him and he played really well....how could u be confident giving him a 4 yr max deal and expect him to be healthy. It’s unfortunate for him but it’s reality- although some team will do it

Dipo is a bad fit. Don't surround Giannis with an Injury prone player that hit 35% from 3 on a good year

Duke4life831 wrote:Honestly I wouldnt touch Oladipo if I was a GM. My guess is Indy will ask for a good amount in a return in a trade. Then his contract will be up at the end of next year and Im sure will be looking for a max contract. Oladipo has had 1 year playing at an all star level. I know he made the all star team in 2019, but that was mostly off of name recognition, his numbers were bad. Oladipo has only crossed 20 ppg once and has only been above league average in efficiency once. Then the fact that he has only played 55 games the past 2 seasons is worrisome as well.
Now when it comes to Myles Turner, if Im the Pels Im looking to move Holiday for Turner. Whether Indy moves Oladipo and they would want Jrue, or if its a 3 team deal that Jrue goes to. But if Im the Pels Im looking to make that deal. Turner is the ideal fit at the 5 to plug in alongside Zion. Elite rim protector that can stretch the court on the offensive end and he fits pretty well age wise with the Pels young core with him still only being 24.
The Holiday brothers possibly playing together? I’d love it.

If they move Oladipo I can honestly see them going this route. A Jrue and Bogdan backcourt makes sense.
