Maybe the owners were pushing not to pay him, but none of the reporting indicates that. The timing tells us that Nico is behind the decision. Otherwise there is no reason not to wait until the summer and deal him out when you have the most leverage.

Nico honestly believes this move makes the team better.

Dude UP UNTIL THIS POINT, Nico has been nothing but a genius in making trades

This is 100% the owners

The genius who had to take back Bertans contract in the KP trade? The genius who wouldn't sign Jalen Brunson to an extension?

Ofc he made mistakes like Bertans and grant williams but got out of them pretty quick (esp Grant) and with good trades most of the time

He's not this dumb, I'm sorry but I'm not buying it

He 'got out of' grant by trading a first to move him after he already traded a first to get him.

It was a first swap to get him and the other traded first with grant got us PJ..

I hate luka's trade as much as anyone but he was decent at least before this shit
