re: Asik on the Trade Block

Where are all the analytic geniuses that praised Asik and bashed me for questioning his role on the team? I told everybody that we should have never traded for him. Then I said to let him walk and got blasted for that. They all said we couldn't afford anyone else and at least we would have an asset that we can get something back for.. If we have to sweeten the pot just to unload the guy 25 games into his contract, that is just embarrassing..

1) We couldn't, we signed him with Bird Rights, not cap space.
2) Who said the 2nd part of your statement? There was a lot of talk and concern about how big his deal should be, and other than a Bird Writes article saying his salary was ranked fine considering how overpaid the position is in general, most people immediately didn't like the size and length of the deal.
