re: How badly has this playoff series damaged BI’s trade value?

I don't really see the point in trading him in the offseason. He absolutely hurt his value, not just since returning from injury, but for the season as a whole.
See how he does for the first 25-30 games of next season. If he's dogshit again, let Trey take the starting role, wait until closer to the deadline, and use his massive expiring contract as best you can.
If he's good or great for that stretch, and restores his reputation as a fringe all star, then all the better for trading. The tricky part for the front office is going to be not buying into him as a long term piece if he is playing well.

That a risky arse proposition. Since he's an expiring contract, if he gets hurt before you can trade him, you're fricked.

It just simply isn’t an option to have BI in a diminished role. This coach and this front office put him out there as the face of the franchise. This was BI’s team coming into this season. They catered the new offense to him to start the season. We all saw BI’s behavior with a diminished role in the Laker game. It just doesn’t work to diminish a guy’s role in a contract year. You are asking for all sorts of trouble. The Pels have 2 options: extend him this summer or trade him.
