Victor Oladipo - Memphis Grizzlies

[IUfan_Charlie 3,867]

OKC just finessed Orlando. Bad trade imo, Ibaka has really regressed.

The Magic are completely incompetent

Glad to see Vic out of Orlando and in a winning program.

Holy Crap!  The Magic just broke my heart and traded Oladipo to OKC for Serge Ibaka!

 

We have to put you on suicide watch?!

I'm okay, but I'M NOT HAPPY!!!!  I just got some gear in the mail today, that I boxed up ready to return.  I can't cancel my season tickets, but I will be selling a bunch and turning the rest in for really good seats behind the visitor bench when OKC comes to town!  Won't be renewing them.  I'll always be a Magic fan, but this is a horrible trade!  Guess I'll got back to only paying attention to big games and the playoffs with the NBA.  

I'm happy for Victor that he gets to play with such a good organization!  

Geez and the Cubs just dropped their 4th in a row.   Come on!!!!

Perfect situation for Victor! He can play his natural position more with some point. Defend, slash, etc. Good for him.

I like Victor to OKC, but what were the Magic trying to accomplish here?

Apparently trying to create competition for Gordon? I have no idea...

They apparently don't value Victor the way we do.

Vic isn't a high value player. An average defender and average shower. Which equals an average player.

...... Ok. Durant seems to disagree with you.

We will find that part out over the Summer. I now, really hope KD stays put but it's no guarantee. OKC will be easy to root for now with VO.

Vic isn't the defender he was in college, but hes still a plus defender by NBA standards. He's not a number one option on a team by any means, probably not a number two either, but this should be a good fit for him. If he can hit 37-40% from 3, he is the perfect player for OKC.

Both Victor and Ersan had a higher PER than Serge last year. Victor's numbers at the 2 guard are far better than what OKC 2 guards put up last year. Let's hope it's a good deal for both, but it looks good from OKC's side.

He seems to like Oladipo's game at the least. Whether that influences his free agency decision though who knows. If you ask Oladipo to be your #1 option then he's going to struggle, but I think he should thrive in his role in OKC.

Agree and hopeful and excited to see him thrive.

Always a class act.  Orlando's loss; OKC's gain.

I just wanna thank the Orlando Magic organization for a great three years. The entire city of Orlando, my teammates, the fans, and coaches that have taught me so much and I'm truly grateful. I'm so excited to be a Thunder!!! I'm ready to win BIG and play in front of the best fans in the world!!! #ThunderUp

If Durant stays Vic wouldn't be able to find a better situation to be in. Very happy for him.
