X requested a trade. He's a long way from being traded. The contract, the new prima donna attitude and his bad knees make a trade very hard. If I'm Grier I'm holding out for a comparable player plus a #1 or #2. I want to be the clear winner of the trade or there will be no trade. X can sit out games if he wants but his career won't be the same with a year off at age 28. He claimed that he offered the FO a very friendly deal that would help the cap. Why wouldn't we go along with something like that if it actually helped the cap? So, who do we believe here?
