Honestly, i think Orlando stole Ibaka. Oladipo really hasnt done much, Sabonis (The 11th pick), and Illy (Contract purposes only at this point of his career). ANd Olrando gets one of the best defensive PF's in the league. Great move by Orlando.

Just for Ibaka? Holy ****!

Wow, the Thunder cleaned up on that one.

I bet we draft ellenson for the kings

Ilyasova is still a good shooter, Sabonis is really interesting, and Oladipo is young and all these coaches probably haven't used him well. Long story short you've got more bench depth. It's a win for OKC

Presti just bent over the Magic and gave it to them American History X style. Ibaka has been declining for 3 years straight now, and OKC got back Oladipo and Sabonis who both could beast on that team as well as Ilyasova. I don't think Orlando got any better but OKC just got deeper and smarter.

Have you look at how bad he has declined though? Blocks the last 5 seasons...3.7, 3, 2.7 ,2.4, 1.9

Shooting % fell off a cliff too. 57% to 53% to 27%

3 pt% from 38% to 32%

Magic had to do this trade though...

Now you dont have to trade Vucevic, who is a 20/10 center... because NOW, you have a PF who can protect the rim next to him.

Elfrid Payton. Oladipo was coming off the bench and their fans were wanting to trade him.

actually he was the only guy who called the suns trading into the top 8 to pick both Bender AND Chriss. the only guy.

and he said that the Suns brass was "torn" at 4 between Bender and Chriss

Gambo was right on
