I was still hopeful there was a team out there that would give up a 2nd rounder to take a flier on Ibaka, based on his name value, and he was playing better as of late. I think given his talent level right now, he should’ve been worth a 2nd rounder. I assume the front office explored all those options and they just weren’t out there. But given all the other pieces in the deal just feels like Clips should’ve gotten something back. Bucks got 2 picks in the deal, one of those couldn’t have gone to the Clips? Or, I mean the Bucks gave up Divincenzo in the deal, and I would’ve easily rather had him. Or feels like there was even a path they could’ve gotten back Bagley.

But if this was all about shedding salary, then I guess not much else they could’ve done. Not my $40mil(?) to spend, and they already took back money in the Norm/RoCo deal, so can’t blame Ballmer for not wanting to spend tens of millions of dollars on a guy that is at best a 3rd stringer.
