Total pipedream, as Neal just holds too much negative value, but maybe CBJ might believe he can help them this season in the playoffs.
Getting out from Neal's contract is probably the best thing we can do longterm for our team - if we can do it for a rental this season, think that's not a bad tradeoff.

He might be one of the untouchables on this team as it really looks like he is being groomed to be Gio's replacement in a couple years.
