The odds we trade BI for a #2 are pretty low. I'm worried we don't trade BI because losing BI would mean we have no #2. The problem with this is BI is already not good enough to be a #2, so we already right now do not have a #2, so the idea of not making a trade because we wouldn't have a #2 just doesn't make sense.

But it’s not just, “trade BI or don’t trade BI and keep the status quo”, it’s “trade BI for whatever you can get, or sign him to a ridiculous contract that is going to hamstring your team for the foreseeable future”.

Yep. And that latter situation means it likely costs us Trey between the amount of money he could get and the fact that he should be a starter instead of a sixth man.



We don’t necessarily need a #2 star for BI but if the fit isn’t working, we need to see what we can do to salvage our situation with our pieces going forward.
