Sort of true, but looking at Feasters other trades it's very apparent that other GM's were taking advantage of him. I think a more competent GM would have had better offers for Iggy even with his short list. I look no farther that what we got for Bouwmeester. That trade was as bad, if not worse ,than the Iggy trade at the deadline.
