Understood. Part of me thinks its got to a maturity of Ant. He has to make those around him better/distribute.

Maybe what I mean is easier with an anaolgy. When the MLB stopped pitching Tony Gwynn inside; he worked to hit the outside pitch over the fence. They then were forced to thorw that inside fastball.

I think he needs to work on that element to keep them from limiting him.

Any ideas? And are we over apron?

I was under impression we couldn’t trade except for a straight up match do to apron rules? I don’t know that though.

Bob knows about this stuff better than I, but from what I understand being a 2nd Apron team:

* We can't package or aggregate players together in a trade

* We can't take back even $0.01 more than our outgoing player's salary

* We can take back multiple players in exchange for one (1) of ours as long as their salaries are an exact match or are less than our guy

* We could include draft picks with our outgoing player to sweeten a deal but outside of the DET 2025 1st, we don't have another tradable draft pick until 2033.

My guess is if we do find a taker for Randle, the return will probably be role players, preferably a backup PG and/or C.

It's expected that Randle opts in to the last year of his deal for roughly $30M which would seem to indicate that even he recognizes how little other teams value him. We might even need to include the DET 2025 1st just to dump him.

When it all shakes out, our final return for the likely 2025 starting All Star C in the East could be an epic disaster with only DDV to show for it.
 

Randle would be fine if he played off of the bench for 20 minutes a game.

You can't win a championship with him as a starter.
 



When they trade Randle, please do it looking past this year.

My fear is they make the trade only looking to sneak in this year, only to be one and done.

Make the trade looking past this year and into the future........like two years out.

Connelly was looking past this year when he made the Towns trade in the first place. Randle was never going to be a part of their long term plans.
