Mike does not have a good contract. We acquired him, thinking it was better than Juwan's. But no team is going to trade for him without making us take a crappy contract in return. As for Steve, we acquired him thinking he wasn't washed up. We might have been mistaken. I don't think there are many teams out there who are looking to add a player like that. They'd have to be real desperate.
First of all, get over yourself. Praising yourself and your contribution to the board by calling other points of view useless is a major reason the board is the way it is today. Thats it on that front though, I dont want to bicker with you. I'll reply to the other points later, its christmas party time =)
