To the Victor go the spoils: both teams win, Miami gets their guy and Houston gets out of their guy.

OverHeated: both teams lose. Oladipo won't move the needle, and Houston might not have gotten anything at all.

Dipo is not good. So if you gave up Dragic or Olynyk you didn't. If its just Iggy then meh.

lets see what its for. But sounds like Rumors about Kyle wanting 2/50 may have held teams off. Or maybe it was an outrageous asking price by Toronto. Still a good consolation prize for Miami.

OK with this price why not.

I don't think Dipo was good but this is literally nothing.

So now Oladipo makes you better, huh? :lol:

But yeah, this seems like a unification that should happen, as now its easier for Miami to re-sign him and keep all the cap holds and what not, rather than getting skinny this offseason for cap space.

Really bummed about losing Olynyk & Avery Bradley (a player who could make a difference in a tough postseason matchup). I'm compelled to cheer for my team's players of course, but Oladipo has a lot to prove to make him worth a deal in the offseason. Now he has a motivation though.

If we had to choose a guard, I prefer Kyle Lowry (a lot). He'll be available in the offseason though.

Honestly the Rockets might get better with this deal.

I have no idea why they wanted him over Lavert.

Wow dipo for literally nothing. I was just talking about this yesterday. Said I didn't think the price for Dipo was real.
