You're the GM this offseason. What do you do?

It would be nice if our front office had the foresight that 80% of reasonable people on a message board have, and had gotten this done at the trade deadline back when Exum wasn’t quite a completely negative asset.

I wanna quibble for a second:

“They’ve given up on him having an impact one way or another”? He has an impact. A demonstrably negative one on the court and on the market.

Sorry everyone. I’ll be done when this cursed being is.

What listen to you and other people that don't understand basketball. Why would they do that

Athleticism isn't a skill. Height isn't a skill. In his case, his athleticism actually hides his lack of skill, it doesn't demonstrate that he has it.

I am having an extremely difficult time thinking of a player that made a second-contract on this team that has shown less skill than Dante Exum.

U have no idea. He's the only player in the team that can involve the bigs

I'm guessing based on this comment that if they could get off Exum's money they'd do it. Put him in the Conley trade... move on.

This completely contradicts everything he's been saying.

Know how to live without him? Well duh we've had to. Moved on from him? Since when?

Maybe Tony talked with someone inside the organization recently and they told Tony a new talking point.

That's possible but seems pretty dumb. Why would we send out a message that we don't want Exum now but we did a couple weeks ago? Why would we want to lessen his value?

The logical thing to do is tell everyone that we still believe in Exum and that he's in our plans.

You’re right. There is sometimes good logic in lying.

But how much longer will that last, but isn’t Holiday a much better defender?

Don’t know... neither does anyone... it’s likely that Jrue plays better than him going forward, but that’s why he’s on sale for a price we can pay and Jrue can’t be had for all of our movable assets... there is some risk there... the reward is definitely there too.

He’s prolly just telling the truth now... it isn’t like they are advertising this or they told Tony to say it.
