Victor Oladipo - Memphis Grizzlies

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

To say Victor is average player based on his performance in Orlando thus far is incredibly ignorant. He was playing WAY too many minutes, had to be the primary ball handler too often, and had very little consistency in his coaching staff and supporting cast.

In OKC, regardless of whether Durant stays, we will see him play a much more defensively focused role, with much less of a need for him to contribute offensively given Westbrook's dominance and the presence of two or three better scoring options.

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

@VicOladipo   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

Um.....IU fans Victor!!!! Best NBA fans was meant and implied. We know.

Husband, who is a Hoosier by marriage, talked me down from the ledge today and said he'd spring for league pass so I could still watch all of Victor's games.  He's actually madder about this than I am because he thinks Hennigan didn't get enough for Victor.  He always told me they would never trade him unless there was a superstar in return.  Starting to think it's time for the GM to go.  

We were watching the feed from the draft room and Vogel didn't look happy so I'm thinking he wasn't 100% on board with this mess.

No, but Cody was on the original list and Victor was just added.  That's why I said it like that.

Nice seeing Oladipo having fun with kids at his skills camp.

It looks like Westbrook is signing a 3 year extension with OKC, so Vic isn't gonna end up on another sinking ship.

Vic is going to be used as a defender and then will have to get out of the way on offense.

If you get NBA TV OKC will be on Monday and Wednesday at 2:30 pm from Spain.

The Thunder worked on their roster reductions by axing Mitch McGary and his drug problem.

The Oklahoma City Thunder waived former first-round pick Mitch McGary, ending a turbulent tenure that included a 15-game suspension for violating the NBA’s anti-drug program.

McGary was the 21st overall selection for the Thunder in 2014. An agile, athletic 6-foot-10 forward, McGary, 24, had a standout career at Michigan but dealt with injury issues and a failed drug test before entering the draft.

McGary will serve his 15-game suspension if he signs another NBA contract and lands on the active regular-season roster.
