Most who fall from mildly content to absolutely enthused about the Mike Miller/Randy Foye trade can agree that they would have like the move better if one of two things had happened (both 'things' being reasonable scenarios which we know Ernie Grunfeld and Co. sought):
- One being the desire to maintain better team balance by shipping DeShawn Stevenson to the T-Wolves instead of Darius Songaila (as some have pointed out, Stevenson likely would not have passed a physical, although those can always be waived ... clearly David Kahn sees Songaila playing some sort of role for the Wolves); and
- Two, thinking the Wizards should have gotten the Minnesota's 18th overall pick back (one of four they have in the first round) -- evidently Kahn wasn't budging on that.
It's not like Grunfeld got 'jobbed' by not accomplishing either of these ... do you think Kahn really wanted to give up Foye? Not likely.
So Bullets Forever nation, what say you ... which would you have rather had happen?
