He shouldn't have been driving the trade.

Still, can't hate a guy who was an icon to the city and tje franchise. But the way he left certainly left a bitter taste in my mouth.
To be quite honest, at this point, I'm willing to have more faith in decision of our HOF, departing captain to pick the better return of players (of course totally unintentional) than the "preference" of Feaster/King/Edwards and whoever else is running the show. Think of it as a final gift.

As the Seinfeld episode goes for King and Edwards and Feaster, regarding the last couple years..."if every decision you've ever made has been wrong, doing the opposite must be correct".
