Trade talks with Falcons?

[THE PISTONS]

Well...IF management knows we can't compete AND they can't work out an extension with Bernard...they may trade him for cost savings.

Your post makes sense...IF you're looking at it from a maximize wins standpoint. We have no clue if the team internally thinks they can win. Publicly they won't say this.
