I don't think it's as black and white as this. Maybe if there were *no* benefits whatsoever to having Cammellari for the remainder of the season. There are likely intangible benefits to the team, and the identity they were trying to instill. Whether those intangibles outweighed the 3rd or 4th round pick is the basis of why he wasn't traded in my opinion.
