Still it's only several games this season. A bad even absolute terrible stretch of maybe 10 games shouldn't destroy his value so heavily.
It would be different if they were just unloading him for nothing, but keeping close to 7M in salary more or less just to get rid of him? That seems like an awfully big fall for a player signed to that contract a year ago (and only 28 games played since signing it).
