Not against keeping him but him on his option is a waste of cap. Decline it and extend him if you want to keep him.
Blake mentions the most likely trade would be taking back a young-ish player’s $$ and a 2nd or two
If we’re keeping Bruce then we fucking *better* commit to tanking next year. Otherwise, I don’t wanna go through this shit again.
This front office really needs to get its stuff together and be more proactive. I thought they’d learn from FVV and Siakam and the lack of return. Yeah the OG trade was a home run for both teams, sure. But that’s a trade done once in a few years (benefits both teams substantially). There was no need to hold on to brown at the deadline.
Does Bruce Brown want to be here? That’s the other side of this question
Holding him through the deadline WOULD have been a baffling move for most front offices.
But holding too long is normal for this front office, and once again the asset has depreciated
