    I don’t think we know yet about Max and Cardwell. Max moved his feet so poorly on defense and doesn’t have full man strength yet I’m...

    Well in this case, I know we had an offer of Aaron Nesmith and a first for Barnes on the table. I think you only needed to trade Barnes...

    Had we tanked and gotten a forward instead of Davion, say Kuminga to keep it more plausible, the chances are pretty good we never trade...
