    Well I guess there are a couple ways to look at this...... Stone over played his hand.... he over payed for Oladipo...... and the Rockets got nothing for him.

    Personally..... whatever, I am just glad Oladipo is gone, because he is a constant reminder of Rockets failure and I really would rather have positive thoughts about the Rockets.

    so when he gets traded for an embarrassing package with nothing of value, folks are supposed to jump around and celebrate. Nah

    Pretty much this. Ra-fleeced Stone doesn't watch a lot of basketball. Dipo was bad for Indy .. pretty bad .. worse than the Houston version.

    Everyone should be mad, I can't believe this was all that was out there.

    Miami was dealing with Toronto wanting picks, herro etc. and said no, let's get Oladipo for Free..

    Now you have to risk Miami actually moving up in the standings, when we actually may own that pick this year. Good job STONE COLD.

    I ain't even mad because Vic's gone. Whatever we got for him in return is just the cherry on top. It's a real surprise to me how many overrated Vic's value when we first got him and apparently continue to overrate his value after this trade.

    Bradley is going to quit playing defense, his biggest skill, when he realizes nobody else on the team is interested.

    I am OK with this. There was not a player that the Rockets were getting back that would be anything more than a commitment to the treadmill of mediocrity. I'm good with banking on the future. FTJ FTM FTN FTF

    Not much of a silver lining here that I can see. This was a miserable ****ing trade...

    Getting Oladipo was Silas’ call. This is why you don’t let coaches get involved in transactions.

    Now we are in trouble

    You never appreciate just how much decent ownership matters until you don't have it.

    We went from title contender to train wreck at warp speed.

    “Why didn’t Houston keep LeVert? When you get back Olynyk and Bradley, you got nothing for him. That’s the consensus around the league. LeVert is on a good contract. You could have a nice, young player instead of the two you got back from Miami.” — Bobby Marks
