I love how it's ok for a fanbase to universally pan a superstar when he demands a trade in much crappier circumstances yet a lesser star, but still a big name player, gets to skate by from criticism while he plays out his deal and potentially leverages the team.

The problem is you're being premature based largely on what you think another human being that you have very limited information on thinks. You did that back in October when you said you wouldn't be surprised if Holiday was out until January.

This is how the Free Agency process works. Typically unless teams throw a max or above market value at a player they go out on the market and try and find the best deals they can. It's not personal, it's just business. MM thinks the Pels are going to go after Lowry. To max Lowry they probably have to let Holiday walk. The lack of loyalty and good faith is a 2 way street in the NBA.
