he literally just signed with Houston in the offseason IIRC (or trade?)

why give up so early

was he not good there? (casual fan, don't follow the league seriously)

Oladipo hasn't been good this season but it's hard to complain about taking a chance on him at that price. Not a bad pivot after not being able to get Lowry.

Miami has upgraded at guard and forward and all it really cost them was a future 2nd round pick. They've brought in Oladipo, Ariza, and Bjelica while losing Olynyk, Bradley, Harkless, Silva, a 2nd, and swap rights on a 1st. Bradley and Harkless haven't done anything, Bjelica takes Olynyk's role as the stretch four, and the 1st rd swap is apparently between the Heat/Nets picks so Heat likely move down a few spots there. It sounds like they're also going to add a washed up Aldridge in the buyout market.

That's all we got?

So the Rockets could have essentially had Caris LeVert and Jarrett Allen but instead end up with Kelly Olynyk, Avery Bradley and a pick swap?

That’s pretty bad.
