This desire to dump Murray for a huge loss

I don’t understand this train of thought. They gave up 3 1sts one of them protected and what was considered a bad salary in Gallo. They’re seeking a starting level player and 2 1sts in return for him, so how is that taking a huge loss?

Of course, there's a reason he's so coveted: he's a very good player. So good, in fact, that Marc Stein is reporting that Hawks coach Quin Snyder is pushing the front office to keep him.

Maybe they try to keep him?
