Because I don't want to. I come here to vent and read other people's opinions. I also don't have fun suggesting trades, as I'm sure the Front office doesn't read this forum. We usually can have different opinions on this forum without getting on each other's throats. On this Reaves issue, it seems it triggered a lot of people that some of us would like to explore the idea of moving on from Reaves, and that has motivated multiple personal attacks over these last pages. I find this odd.
lol, if it's not obvious, i like arguing on the internet. what i don't like is complete irrationality, which is clear is going to ensue here, just based on what's happening right now. i don't even know what this means. like, if i phrased it: "i don't particularly understand why you think letting reaves walk or trading him for role players is more important to you than winning, but i respect that" would you receive it well? I also don't understand why some of you seem to be extra salty just because some people are willing to float the idea of paying Reaves his market value to keep the team from losing assets for no reason, or question if we should be concerned about retaining an all star level player in a market where they basically never become available. being good in the regular season IS winning. google the relation between regular season record and winning rings. you've got to be in the mix and have some luck. the dumb part of all this is that everyone actually agrees that we need to keep reaves this summer, so i'm really not sure what the hater brigade is after. pre-whining about a 5m annual contract difference that will mean absolutely nothing? what is it? seriously? i have no idea.
or just all this ^ this s*** is wild, man. nobody has said anything about never trading reaves for any reason. just complete fabricated, strawman, b*******. if you think we should let him walk if he won't sign for 30m, say it! i want it on record in case it happens and the pitchforks come out.
